RE: Ed Kecks pattern planes
Thank you for the picture Ray,I can see the starfire linage but my two ships seem to be refinments.
Both ships have fully foiled vert.tails the stabs are on the bottom of the fuse and are removeable.
Both are powered by piped RE motors with the pipes hidden under a removable deck.
Hi Vince : Ed's wife was clearing out their basment after his passing,and I was blessed to pick both up these ships and some extra pieces that I hope to turn into another complete airframe.
The largest ship is powered by a OS .61 V GEARDRIVE {I have never seen one of these before} driving a 12x12 prop
The smaller ship seen hang from my ceiling has a 72in ws and was powered by a Rossi .61,I have coverted to electric power{about 1000watts on a 4S-5000ma batt. turning a 12x6 evo prop}I plan to switch it over to a .90 4cyc Saito for next years flying.
