Default Can you identify this airplane?

Hey guys,

I acquired this plane in a group purchase. Can anyone tell me what it is? It's 3 channel - no ailerons. Kit built. The wing span is 56 inches.

Thanks!

Patrick

Quite possibly could be a GMC Quick Stick or as above. These were popular in the early 70's through the 80's. I built and learned to fly with a .19 sized one in 1971. Just a plywood box on two spruce longerons with a tail. Whatever wing you could build or get (ACE foam etc.)
seemed to work. A couple of nyrods and landing gear with wheels and you were flying. A good memory. Easy to learn about radio installation and engine/fuel tank management.
