Hi Bob,
Maybe it could be a Shark, I don't know. I am just going by what I was told. The guy I bought it from did not have it in a box, instructions or anything, but for $60 I could not pass it up. The wings were pre-sheeted in Obechi wood, done real nice. I glassed the center with 3 layers of 2oz and then the whole wing in 1oz. Boy is that sucker strong!!!!

The Super Tigre X-45 TST engine started life as an engine I flew in U/C Carrier. I sent it to LCS Performance and he fitted it with a Nelson F-1 backplate, modified the porting to match up with the Jett QM 40 muffler I had on hand, and had the liner rechromed. Since the engine runs WIDE OPEN , no throttle, he came up with a pretty slick way I can at least control it some what. He set it up to run on a BVM inflight mixture control for ducted fan use. All I have to do is richen it up, and boy it slows down quick falling off the muffler. Lean it out and boy does it GOOOO!!!!!!!

Life in the fast lane

David
