Not a nomination for the best... but it was a very good plane that deserves to be remembered because it has held endearing memories for a lot of years now long after its demise. I continue to think it was my best flying plane but that was back when flying off a school parking lot and hard surface. It had trike gear.

Oh.. the plane? It was made by a rather small company that has been out of business for a long time and I don't think the plane was ever picked up by another manufacturer. That company was Southern RC. The plane, a .40 size Alley Cat.

It was the only plane I've built and there have been a great many that required absolutely no trim for the maiden flight or subsequent balance or thrust changes. It was a fantastic flyer.
