Is that a T-Cart or a Super Cub? I flew a T-Cart for years. Loved that little bird. It was a good 15 mph faster than any other kite with the same engine. No electrical system. No radio. It did have position lights, I think, but no instrument lights. If it got dark I put a flashlight in my mouth. Fuel gauge was a wire on a cork. Had to "prop" it to start it. I'd get that thing to 14,000' if I had thermals to ride on.

Great fun.
