RE: Sportmaster
Paul,
Thanks for your responses! I remember reading in another forum (Aeromaster Bipe any info?) that you used to work for Lou Andrews. Its very cool to get comments from someone who had a hand in the production of this great design. I love Lou's design style. I love the built up "barn door" ailerons, and the stringers on the top and bottom of the fuselage. Its a very sexy fuse shape! My first RC airplane was an A-Ray that my dad bought me for Christmas along with a K&B .35 Before this, he was teaching me to fly with his Jensen Ugly Stik and decided it was time for me to start building my own airplanes. This was about '74 or '75 (I was 10 in '75).
In 1993, I built an Aeromaster from a Great Planes kit (another Christmas present from dad) and loved the way it flew. I always liked the way it looked with the top wing off and thought about how cool a monoplane version would look. I had no idea that there was one until a couple years ago while reading through the forums here on RCU. Then I discovered that lazerworks had a short kit available...Here we are! I'll keep posting pics as I progress.
