UFO build...yippeee!

The UFO was my first glass/foam/paint project. I flew it to best Jr at the 1979 NATS...I believe I was the only Jr...anyway, great life experience.

Regarding the retracts...Horizon and their E-Flite brand has a very cool set of electric retracts for 15-20 size models that I played with at the recent Chicago Hobby Show. They are or soon to be released in conjunctionwith their E-Flite Bonanza. The units will be around $90, plug directly into the retract outlet of your RX, have low current drain and a nifty stall feature.

Here is the photo which I posted previously on the Phoenix 7 by Horizon thread.

I intend to use the little jewels in my Bridi Tweety Bird powered by the K&B .19 as the original or with any luck win a K&B .21 rear exhaust.
