Hello everybody,

I built a Super Duper Joy Stick from the A4 sized plan in RC Modeler Magazine more than 10 years ago, powered with a Super Tigre 61. It was great fun, and the Tigre was way too much power for the plane actually ( flutter was always looking around the corner). I had reduced the dihedral a little bit, and it was as if on rails, both upright as well as inverted. That's also how it met its demise ... upside down, couple of feet above the deck, and a moment with a little less concentration ... nothing much left of it.

I'd recommend one to anybody who wants a simple great-flying sunday fun plane.
