Design and development

The Acroduster Too is a scaled down version of the Stolp Starduster Too.^[3] It was originally named the Schrack-Stolp Super Starduster Too.^[4] Much of the redesign of the SA-300 was done by TWA pilot Morgan Schrack.^[5]

The aerobatic aircraft is described as having a sharp stall, and ability to keep wings level using rudder alone. The Acroduster has shorter span and length, has larger ailerons than the Starduster Too, and has a stronger tail.

The aircraft is constructed with fabric covered 4130 steel tube structure and spruce wing spars. Ribs are plywood with cap strips.^[1]
