Default Check out my Sport Model Sketch Book

Here's something a little different. I just finished a new section for my website called "Bruce's Sketch Book." It is a sampling of sport model ideas and concepts I've toyed with over the years. The designs presented there are NOT being actively developed for BTE. Rather, they are offered for the sake of nostalgia, and perhaps as inspiration for budding designers. Plans for several of the designs are available for scratch builders. Link:

Hope you enjoy browsing through the sketch book. Let me know what you think!

Bruce, you got the Biplane Speedwing in there. I Double Dog Dare you to join in on the 1/2A forum's Design Contest and make one of these. And as everyone knows you can't fault on a DDD except under penalty of eating your own foot off..... It looks like a real champ but may be best off without any landing gear. I suspect a model of that size would just trip on landing unless the wheels were sized WAY out of proportion.

Bruce that space kadet would be a neat way to enter the electric market with a small electric kit like that. you might have to come up with a name that doesnt land you in court but i think it would work beautifully.

also the necromancer would be another little electric sport plane that would be fun.
