Thanks Bill.

I could've spent more time on the paint but got tired of it.

You know you will get to fly it!

I agree... that's one of the best looking Curare's I've ever seen.

I saw Ed Hartley's new Curare in person at the SPA contest in Chattanooga last weekend. It is just a masterpiece ! The only thing better was watching Ed do a point roll and then unscrew it the other way (reverse point roll or something like that is what he called it). Awesome !!

Congratulation

very nice project!

two small question

have you enlarged default .60 size plan?
the vertical tail leading edge and tip fin with horizontal stabilizer leading edge are hand sanded? or are there precut?

there are so perfect i hardly can believe you made them on hand ;-)

i have constructed one minare (curare) and this job was terrific difficult for me.

thank you post more photos

cheers

Mark I think this is the cover you talk about. In the box with all the parts from my 30+ year old Curare project was a new copy of the mag with the article.
