    Correction: engine wasn't Continental C-85 (it would be enormous for that airplane!). It was a Kiekhaefer O-45-35 flat twin with 30 hp. Its weight was only 35 lbs! The information about the propeller is also wrong.

      @@InformationAboutFlyingObjects You are so insulting and sanctimonious in your response to RobertoMOLA when you refer to the information he gave as his " opinion ". He is in fact completely CORRECT . The C85 is a 4 cylinder and has a DRY weight of 180 pounds . Even a CHILD can see the Wee Bee has a tiny 2 cylinder engine and not the big 4 cylinder that YOU claim it has. Its little wonder that with an attitude like yours , that your channel is so few subscribers and views. . Please look up the definition of " The Dunning Kruger effect " for some self reflection.

    It is one of the most dangerous designs ever made. For the most part, the ground effect was responsible for it being able to fly.

    Thanks for telling this story. I first became aware of this plane decades ago with a single photo and not much info in a magazine. Only after watching this did I find out the WeeBee had flaps and foot operated rudder like most other aircraft.

    Gross weight of 550 pounds and max total take-off weight of 600 pounds - not only the plane but also the pilot must have been tiny and light-weight. Or you take off with empty tanks... ;-)

      Not to mention that the engine he CLAIMS ( incorrectly )to be on the Wee Bee ( the C85 ) has a fuel consumption rate of 5.4 us gallons per hour and an oil consumption rate of . 4 us quarts per hour , one needs to ask ... where the hell did this guy get his information ????
