These are really fun planes. I built one light and loved it. It lives in Hawaii now. My buddy Chronic DS'er brought his heavier JW36 over from Oahu (30-32 oz, maybe) and we flew it at Parker in macking winds, over 60 mph on the frontside. He also DS'd it to 116 on a lighter day and it had plenty more in it. The plane is really stable and seems handle all conditions very well.

I think it's a great little plane, though I might be interested more in a 48" if those became available.

I really like my 36" Really fly's well for such a small plane.

I also know that Bruce T (worlds fastest man!) always wanted to fly it when I saw him up on Parker!

I think people would want one, I know I would.

I would love to buy more mini jw's!!!! The best plane I've ever ds'ed on mt. Zion! Flys just like its big brother! I currently have two. And a buddy is still rocking the first one I've ever built. It was pretty light and I was doing laps in the 120's a few years back! But a 48 inch version would be sick!!!!!!!

The mini dub is a great little plane. Anyone that has flown one knows what I mean when I say, "you laugh the whole time it is in the air" Mini dub furballs are the best!!! It does everything its big brother does, just seems faster because its smaller. My current one did 141mph and I have a back-up kit for when this one dies. You could easily sell a bunch of these. Matt

I will have a limited number of Mini JW's by the end of the week. Send me a PM if interested.

The plane has been updated with the latest airfoil from Joe so it should easily break 150 mph. I think 200 mph is not out of the question. The spar has been improved to deal with the higher speeds. Hardware is also improved.

Digital Skins for the mini will be available in the near future.
