Description: This auction is from Andy Clancy Designs. We proudly offer to you the Original Lazy Bee, the OG Backyard Barnstormer, updated for you to enjoy building and flying in 2024. I designed the Lazy Bee way back in the 90's because I wanted an RC plane that I could fly in my absurdly tiny backyard. It had to be extremely maneuverable in tight spaces and be able to take off/land on rough ground. The resulting plane did the job really well, and was just so fun to fly that all my flying buddies wanted to have one, too! That's when I started making and selling Lazy Bee kits. The Lazy Bee is a super-responsive 3 channel slow flyer. Strong yet very light-weight. Its huge lightly-loaded wing and oversized control surfaces are what make it so maneuverable. The Lazy Bee's rugged sprung landing gear can handle the worst runways imaginable and many bad landings. The Lazy Bee is intentionally versatile: You can use electric or glow power; it has been successfully flown with a huge array of power plants. It is light enough to fly on as little power as a Cox .049 yet strong enough to handle up to .30 four cycles or equivalents in electric power. The Lazy Bee has a convenient battery access hatch for electric flying. This kit is for the Original Lazy Bee. "Original" in this case means NO AILERONS. (If you would like ailerons on your Bee, you'll want a Lazy Bee Special). This Original Lazy Bee can be built with either the standard 40" span wing or the extended 48" span wing. The 40" wing gives you the most aerobatic Lazy Bee. If you build this one, your Bee will do rudder rolls and fly well in windy conditions. If you build the 48" wing, your Lazy Bee will fly like a very maneuverable sailplane. This kit is made by the original designer of the Lazy Bee, Andy Clancy. Each kit is made to order from the best materials available. Your Lazy Bee Kit includes all the wood needed to build your plane, plus stainless spring steel landing gear parts, detailed plans and instructions. The laser cut wood parts in this kit are beautifully cut and they fit together perfectly. The plans and instructions are very detailed. The plans are accurately plotted and there are 3 large pages of them and include covering templates. If you have any questions about The Lazy Bee please contact me through ebay. If you purchase this or any Lazy Bee kit from Andy Clancy Designs, I encourage you to contact me if you need assistance.
