This one was built in early 90's. It is a Byron Staggerwing, with a Zenoah G-38 for power.
A little on the heavy side, as all Byron designs, had a realistic retractable landing gear.
I won several regional and national FAI F4C championships with this plane, while still living in Brazil.

Personally, Bull, I think you were scaring her with the aerobatics and she jumped. Hate that she took out the tail. Bet that hurt. My pilot's a bit "softer"

LOL ... You might be right... Never did find the Pilot...

Here's mine: First a 1/4 scale Bristol Scout, originally powered with a pair of Webra geared 61's (1975); then a 1.4 Roper industrial engine (1976); and then a Quadra 35 (1977). The airplane still flies today with that tired old Quadra.
Next is my 1/3 scale Bristol Scout powered by a Zenoah G-62.
Last is my "Kestrel", powered by a Zenoah G-23.
All three airplanes are my own design.

Scratch built Ultimate, Moki 180, 62 inch wing span, weight is 15 lbs. I used a set of Goldberg plans to get the wing pattern and I drew the rest.
