Is the Nimbus what you flew at the Airpark at noon at the quickie race? It was quite agile.

I flew a Voodoo with a ST G21-35 many years ago. I think it was doing a bit more than 100mph, it felt insanely fast, but didn't turn like a modern design. I later converted a Guillotine combat design to RC, as that was done back in the late 60's and early 70's.
I know it's an old thread but this brought back memories.

Back in des moines iowa Johnny carr kitted his design the Guillotine and in ~1971 actually kitted a R/C version. Called the RC guillotine.

2 channel with a 15 engine. aileron and elevator and it actually flew pretty good once one got used to the aileron type controls. Whichare rate controls as opposed to rudder action whichis a position control.

I just hope in shipping box 145 or whatever I still have the g21/35 engine.
