Planebuilder,

I wish you the best.  It's a real rush to see your plane reviewed in the mags.  We designed and prototyped a smaller version of the Elliptic.  The design is still available from RC Magazine plans service.  We had a totally different type of design on the drawing boards when we shut down the business.  I was hired as a pilot for a major airline and just didn't have the time required to continue.  My partner went on to design several planes and sold construction articles to RC Magazine.  He finally got burned out and has moved on to other things.  By the way, I still fly the original Elliptic on occassion.  It's been through 3 engines and 4 different paint schemes.  Still flies like a dream.  But, of course I can say that since I designed it!!  Again, good luck to you.
