Dihedral Vs. No Dihedral
Because of a crash resulting from a bad elevator servo the fresh Mono Dito had to see Kosta's workshop. That was the right time to flaten the wing. He made this carbon reinforcement
and that made the wing a 245 cm flat board
Extreme dihedral=very sensitive to side wind + looking very unserious

Mono Dito
This is my new Plane. The name given by my twoandahalf years old daughter is Mono Dito.
I flew it this weekend. It flies reasonably well. It was used by the JNA (Jugoslav National Army) as a Target Puller for Anti Air Guns. I have mounted the engine and electronics from the Klemm 35 on it. It has a 240 cm wingspan, monumental dihedral and is so ugly that it is beautiful again.
Klemm Down
That was a Big Bang. I slammed the Klemm 35 into the unforgiving steal structure of the hangar with full throttle applied. The result: devastating. The front end and the wing are totally shattered, only the back end of the fuselage has somehow survived. Fortunately the engine, receiver and the servos are still in working conditions so I’ll have less transition costs in building my new plane cause the Klemm 35 Spezial is unrecoverable (the rebuild would be economically unfeasible). So I am on the outlook for a plane that can hold a 20 cc engine.
