The Island Lake Float Fly is a good one for getting information regarding the Northstar. See the picture from RCM a few years ago ( I built the second and third ones from the right) as an example of what is there most years and you'll notice that Laddie - the designer of the Northstar - is normally there. Since the float fly is this coming weekend, http://www.skymasters.org/events/mid...nal/index.html why not drop by (since it's so close to you) and ask around for the info you want? I'll bet that by now some of the Northstars there will have been electrified - maybe even one by Laddie since he does a bunch of electric plane building and flyng.
