Taurus Flyer,
Many years ago I had the opportunity to fly a Taurus that belonged to someone else and I was impressed at how big and beautiful it looked and how smoothly it flew. It was a pleasure to fly it.
Your scratch built Taurus is certainly one fully equipped flying machine and shows that you enjoy the vast amount of experimentation that our hobby permits. Continue to enjoy your Taurus.
I never owned a Taurus but way way back I did build and fly the Ed Kazmirski Tauri which was a shoulder wing trainer for multi channel radios. I flew it with a Kraft Ecktronics six channel reed type radio system and the engine was a Fox .35 Rocket red head with a Johnson carburetor epoxied on it's venturie. That Tauri was another great flying Kazmirski airplane.

I will do Rocketman, I will keep the past as long as possible in my hands, and continue the experimentation of Ed Kazmirski with the tools I have these days.
I found the Taurus a very good ship for my experiments but also a plane to fly under nearly any weather condition with great pleasure.
Orion, Taurus, Tauri. Ed did show us how to design airplanes.
