Hey all. I have been looking at some light gliders and came across the
ULF. I was looking at one called the Goat but the useful load was way
too low for me. It looked somewhat easy to build but I weigh anywhere
between 250 and 280 depending on my eating and exercise. I noticed the
useful load was 220 which is still too low but perhaps with a bit of
redesign in the wing by extending it to 38/40 feet. Might require some
beefing up of the spar.
It looks like the model planes I have built and I have fair woodworking
skills.
