......The Peppermint Pattie was available as a kit here in the US and utilized a .15 sized engine, but it was pattern-like and not a true patternship.................
It's early. I'm still on my first cup of coffee. My comments were not intended to offend anyone.

Not to start an argument, Ed, and I am not offfended, but the PP .15 is truly a miniature pattern ship. I designed it to be cheaper, easier and quicker to transport/fly for practice. I have a first place trophy somewhere from a fun fly / pattern event in MA back when. If you read the R/C Sportsman article, it explains all.
Of course, a .15 size has disadvantages in pattern and would not be seriously competitive, but the PP .15 flies just like its larger sibling.
