Pimmnz,
Sounds like you know the one I was thinking of. You said plans were available, any idea where to look?
I remember a Vertigo being the star of a large model show that I went to with my dad in the late 70's.
Pure Solarfilm red, fully square fuz with a Webra 60 up front. To this day I have not seen any other model out spin a Vertigo: The bloke would climb to a dot in the sky then spin all the way down, doing 70 plus spins.
I would like to get one for old time sake and find an unrun/good vintage Webra or HP 61 and just punch holes in the sky.
I now fly electric or petrol, but would put up with all that oil and go back to glow just to fly a Vertigo.
As you say it might be a bit tame by todays standards, but it would be nice to find out.
Just out of interest how powerful is a 30 year old webra or HP compared to a modern engine, would a new 45 be more power?
