Default RE: Original Schoolboy

Gabe200, the little School Boy I have pictured is one of the 2 prototypes I build while developing the kit for Early RC Models. My single channel version weighed in at 9 oz with Tee Dee .020 and a small 1/2 oz Perfect remote tank. Bear in mind I just finished her out in a few coats of Nitrate dope, added a little bit of color dope trim and finished off with one coat of Lustra Coat clear for fuel proofing. The newer radios with lighter batteries and servos could get you down to 7-8 oz I bet.

Check with Steve at Select Hobbies www.selecthobbies.com as he carries the kit and many of the Cox acessories you will need.

Good Luck!
