Default RE: Graupner Caravel


ORIGINAL: UStik
An interesting side note: Graupner has a nice picture at his 75th anniversary website showing Dr. Walt Good, Bob Dunham, and Ed Kazmirski visiting Graupner on their way back home from Bern. Ed has one of the new Variophon transmitters hanging around his neck and seems to check it thoroughly, but obviously he kept using Dunham's Orbit. I guess Graupner didn't kit the Orion because that was Top Flite claim, so they kitted Caravelle instead to have a top model to boost the new R/C. Only with Phil Kraft they got in agreement for a Kwik-Fly (and Ugly Stik) license.
Could you post a link to the photo of the US team visiting Graupner?

Thanks, Alan
