kgwilson Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I saw some footage of it in the STOL comp at Oshkosh. Pretty impressive, but it still looks like a praying mantis. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasper Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 But north of US$1m is a lot to pay. Granted it does what he wants so thumbs up wow that’s a lot of cash. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mAgNeToDrOp Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I've been following the build on his channel, that Wilga is a beast. Good on him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted it does what he wants so thumbs up wow that’s a lot of cash. **GIGGLE** Yes, I thought he looked almost embarrassed that he'd spent over a $Mil on it. . . . What an enthusiastic bloke though ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yenn Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 If it needs wheels that big it could do as well with tracks. Now wouldn't that look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is definitely a 'Feelgood' video. . it Must be, as I feel Good. And Wifey says I'm the archetypal Miserable Bugger. . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snarf007 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I followed the build on Mike Pateys channel and it was amazing to watch. Some serious and inovative engeneering. I was really impressed with how fast he fabricates carbon fiber parts and while working full time. Hopefully I will have a man cave like him in my next life.... he has got money to blow on toys.

w3stie Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I've been following his channel too lately. I wouldn't mind having just 10% of his energy and can do attitude. I think I'm more of a Project Binky man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnm Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I^d settle for 4% of his money .......... he^s probably a plumber - great toys though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
