    When you guys build migs, is there standard scale you guys stick too.
    My first was as per plan but at Hermanus I heard that you guys scale up a bit.

  4. Hi there Bruce,



    Yes we did scale the plan up a little.

    Our home build went the 1320mm size. This was because it was a convenience versus wing loading scenario. We have built them at 1500mm which reduced the wing loading even less but found the size a tad cumbersome.

    I’m sure you saw the 3m Mig fly at Hermanus? This size had an even less loading.

    But build to whatever size suits you……and your car! J



    Good to hear from you!!

    Keep us posted!

    Regards

    The Mig Team.
