Default RE: Redesign and reconstruction of the Oldest Taurus on Earth

Free Bird,

My Orion is a product of April 2004 has nothing to do with vintage pattern flying, for that see the Top Flite Taurus thread.
The only way to mount this big engine was “inverted”. Some pictures I did make to show the drag of a “cup of tea” on the fuselage. (picture 1 and 2)
This Orion did make last weekend again 3 successful flights on a new field.

When you are really interested in classic pattern flying , what is YOUR opinion about my Oldest Taurus on Earth, because that’s the goal of this thread and you are an USA member?
(picture 3).
