Default What is it?????

I bought this plane at an auction last week for $35 and don't have any idea what it is. It had never been flown. I flew it for the first time today and it flew pretty well. Any idea what it is???

It might be someone's scratch built or "kit bashed" plane.

The tail feathers look similar to a Chaos, or one of the Chaos clones. The fuse and (modified for sweep) wing looks like it could have been one of the "Sticks".

But I actually don't have a clue. (Just thought I'd bump the post back up top.

Hi Slam,

I believe it is an old ACE kit, the "Blue Max" kit. I had one @ ten years ago. It was an

early fun fly type plane. AWESOME, would be a better word for it though! When set up with

a computer radio, it will do about any trick better than the newer fun fly planes now!

A strong 46 will make the Max do the MAX!

Good Flying

Thanks. I hope you are right. Do you know who the manufacturer was?

Well it does sort of look like the Blue Max but the wing looks all wrong. I had the kit and this one is missing the winglets and the Blue Max had a fun fly wing which this one doesn't have.

I'm gonna continue the "resembles a Stik" theme and guess that it may be a Doghouse or Doghouse eXtreme (by Dick Smith)...

THis is what the BlueMax by ACE looks like. Very close but not quite the same.
The mystery continues......
