Here are a few shots of my Venture 60 on floats. It is extremely successful as a float plane although with the OS 61 FX I do lose a little vertical (it won't go on forever!)

Rolls are almost the same and most other maneuvers are very similar except for a slight pendulum tendency which is easily corrected after one attempt. These are very light floats so they don't affect the flight characteristics that much and I thought some of the guys might be interested in my method of water rudder control.

I use a retract servo inside the aircraft to lift them. Very simple. I use an APC 13-6 prop and built the kit exactly according to Bruce's instructions. The floats are of my own manufacture - see www.foamcorefloats.com for more info on them. This is an aircraft that performs well on land or sea and is an absolute joy to fly. On a bad day it takes off after hitting the second wave!!
