Default RE: U-Control Model identification

Any one know what this U-Control Model might be?
It was built around 35 years ago, thanks for any help.
Man, that could be almost a derivative of anything. The wings are a revised copy of Nobler, but so were 10,000 others in that time period of CL Stunt. HA! It could be someone's "original" design such as were numerous slightly different "Noblers", "Detroiters", and Veco "Chiefs". These 3 basic designs supplied a heap of information for oh so many "originals."
The nose closely resembles the inverted engine Thunderbird but the wing is extended far beyond where the rounded portion leaves the flap area on the T-Bird. Not a T-Bird basic wing. The tail feathers are more closely arranged to the Detroiter style. The nose and tail moments appear closer to the T-Bird.

Good Luck.
