Default UGLY STIK TIME CAPSULE

The thread on Pro Line radios made me think you guys might enjoy some of these pics. The plane is an original Jensen Das Ugly Stik kit built in about 1968. It is covered with parachute nylon fabric and finished with Randolph Dope. Cloth hinges. As a teenager, I watched it being built by a good friend and R/C mentor many years ago. The Pro Line was one of the very early models in 1970. Has one of the first trainer and buddy box setups ever offered. The Enya .60 was purchased a few years ago off Ebay to replace the original engine that was rusted and corroded after the plane sat idle for about 20 years. Used it to teach my son-in-law to fly.
