    How much? How much for the cheapest built basic bearhawk 5. New engine but basic avionics and add the kit. How much would i be able to build one for? I have a wife and 2 small kids that I would need to bring with me. So I need a 2+2 minimum. I want a kitfox price but bearhawk size.

      Take a look at our companion. They can be built for about 150k pretty well equipped and have a 900 lbs useful load.

      Omg. I just realized you are the owner of bearhawk. Thats so cool. God is good. Thats so crazy i actually talked to the owner of the company. I just watched all your videos on youtube. Your mission work is so amazing. I was on amiedical missions trip to india. This makes me want to buy one even more. May God bless you on everything you do sir.

    You should team up with the designer and make the flap hyper extend up so you can gain some cruise speed.

    with such a long loading platform, how difficult is to get the weight and balance right?

    • @The-virg
      @The-virg Месяц назад

      The CG is really wide with the airfoils we use. It is actually pretty difficult to get it out of CG. As long as you use your head when loading the 1400 lbs into the airplane you won’t have any issues.

  • @jacobchandler2083
    @jacobchandler2083 Месяц назад

    I bet you could fit something like a cd300 in that 5. Would be cool to see a (reasonably tested) diesel in a bush plane

    • @The-virg
      @The-virg Месяц назад

      Cd300 is a little heavy but I hope to have some options on the table soon

    • @jacobchandler2083
      @jacobchandler2083 Месяц назад

      @ i agree the cd is heavy for its output. But it the 5 being so large it could probably handle it. At that point its certainly sacrificing some landing potential. But i bet the fuel burn would be pretty decent and it might potentially be quieter in the cabin. I could see pros and cons to it.

    • @jacobchandler2083
      @jacobchandler2083 Месяц назад

      @ i also think there needs to be a bushplane home for a del120 lyc. But its weight makes that challenging. Honestly a ul520 would probably be a better all rounder in that hp range but a diesel bush plane sounds like a cool idea

    • @jacobchandler2083
      @jacobchandler2083 Месяц назад

      @ but in the cd300s hp segment it’s definitely not a hp/weight champ nor are any of the diesel options
