Status: offline 		I bashed this from a 2001 omp 540 set of plans. flies like the 540, 4.25 lb, saito 72 g.k. I fly with REMCL1, who is a really big fan of your products (me, too) and he said to send you guys a picture of it, as you liked stuff like that! It's good for a laugh, anyway! Made wing off rib #6, shortened it by 8", then added big laminated tips. center shear web 1/16" ply to support gear, ply 1/2 ribs and blocks. laminated stab and rudder tips. hinged whole rear of fuse for rudder, to keep roll coupling down. fuse is pretty stock, just changed profile a little. Harriers great, torque rolls good, snaps a little weird, more like a lazy bee. a little hard to orient on, but hey, it's scale!

Hey Dion, we gotta upload this picture into the website gallery along with Fred's description.

Hey, that was me. I got several of it in high res on the computer. Really downsized them for RCU. Got one crystal clear of the bird harrier right on the deck. Fred really did a good job on that kit-bash. He harried it about as well as his regular OMP Edge
