Ok, please let us know about your progress on it. A build thread would be nice as well. Good Luck, Dave

You will all be sorry when my full scale Ugly Stick is done and all the threads will be about how scale their US model is. Scale topics will be duplicating Monokote finish, sharp or soft radius' for the fuselage side corners, how do I duplicate rubberbands, is an Ultra Stick in the same brotherhood. You will all be sorry.

Off course it has been build

See here

This small model from Roger seems to be electric powered, but I have seen a bigger IC powered model years ago if I am correct build by a Scottisch modeller. But can't find any info on that one right now.

Well then, he has something to reference to (and forewarn him about all the mistakes HE won't have to make!)

Actually, when you think about it, it's the a pusher with a cone. Do you suppose the "cone" rotated like a spinner, or is it just held in place for aerodynamic reasons? It's not all that much different from some of the earlier Vickers designs...just a bit more slicker since it was built in 1932. Note that the prop has the wide tapered hub typical of props of that era.
