First introduced in 1973, the SA-700 Acroduster is a single-seat, fully aerobatic biplane suitable for engines in the 125-200 hp range. Its fuselage is an all-metal structure constructed from light alloy, and its wings are conventional two-spar structures with spruce spars, plywood ribs and fabric covering. A unique feature of the Acroduster 1 is that when the stick is pulled back, all four ailerons are raised slightly to help maintain aileron control when the airplane is stalled in a normal attitude. The opposite happens when the stick is pushed forward to aid control when the airplane is in an inverted stall.
The Acroduster uses com¬pletely separate wing panels pinned in the center with a pivot type joint and tied to the fuselage with an open stance ca¬bane that has four mounting points on the wings.
They are always building from a kit because Osborne won’t sell a set of plans without the com¬plete materials kit to keep them compa¬ny. The kit is literally a complete, but disassembled, airplane that needs only the engine and propeller. Even the motor mount and gas tank are completely fin¬ished and ready to nail in place.
