Thats how its spelled Mitch. That is where I got my ladybug short kits from.

Your field: you may not enjoy such a small-ish field with a .40 size model or a 2M sailplane, but you may like a small-ish 1/2 plane for that size field.
My fields are either larger or smaller than that, I prefer flying in my back yard which is pretty small for flying, but a lazybee can manage just fine as well as my littlest stick.
The ladybug is a 020 version of the lazybee, lazerworks is where I got my ladybug kits.
There are a few places to get the Lastick kits, I know a guy that does them 2 for $30 shipped,thats where I got mine. He is doing a jr.falcon build over on the other forum site;but I can`t remember which one

Just how short of a line can you fly with those little .020 and .010 planes?

I`m guessing you mean control line .....I havn`t flown control line since I was a kid. I only ever flew a cox: peewee 020, black widow 049 and the .15sportman on control line. .010, I would have no clue. peewee, I only ever used about 15' of line, 049, about 20'max, and the sportsman was about 25' totally nuts fast ; but I like that kind of apeed and I never got dizzy

I fly r/c in my yard thats about 45yards x about 100yards with my littlest stick, surrounded by biggy trees and obstacles, with a powerline running through the best part of it(go figure right?)
HENCE, lots of crashes

my uncle lives about 1-2 miles down the road, he has 2 fields I fly at. 1 is about 1 -2 acres, the other is about 4 acres. Over at my dads house 10 miles away I have a field that is 12 acres surrounded by forrest and 1 that is 80 acres with a great/ish view of about 6 square,open miles;Dad lives on a hilltop. I have litterally lost planes out of range with the late 80`s radio gear there. Most prominent memmory: a cox r/c ezbee with a black widow on the nose for extended flight times got up into the prevailing winds and taken away due to a kick up elevator.

Thats why I have the farcebug, the little plane that could, and 2 ladybug kits, 2 Lastick kits , a radical r/c : micro bipe, mini bipe and wicked wing kits sitting here waiting for me to build them.

I have the clancy aviation video tape that Andy Clancy sold back in the day that showed him crashing,trying to destroy the lazybee with a Cox black widow 049 on it. Cartwheels, stalled on purpose to nose in, etc. ,etc. showing off the planes durability; a few rubber bands and back in the air.
It also showed him flying in the alley at his apartment, that was the reason he designed/built the lazybee, so he could fly in minimal space at home instead of loading up and going to a club or field.
I have got to figure out how to convert that video to a transferable media;its a real hoot

15" is the smallest I went and it was rather dizzy I recommend 18" I used wax dacron and went up to 25" but had little control I would say that would be fine if I used less draggy steel lines.
