yes it was. i suggest something like: while seeing a U/C Taurus listed for sale i realized i didn't know they made a u/c version. i would thing most of us could figure that out. although the blue angel that was for sale recently was misspelled on the listing driving some of us BA aficionados nuts for a while.

Interesting model. I bet it would be a fun electric park flyer type for R/C. Nice thick wing.

C/L Stunters usually have the wing closer to the thrust line to turn inside and outside maneuvers with equal turn rates per handle movement. Maybe all of the those wheels down there even up the vertical cg enough to make it fly well?

There is a little 18 inch Scientific model called the Zipper that is a dead ringer for the typical 1960's R/C Pattern ship that I always liked. Trike gear, low wing, bubble canopy, swept tail. It's a good look to imitate.

Hello Stuntflyer.

Your post about this C/L Taurus is interesting.

Because, there is no much difference with my post 15 in “Redesign and reconstruction The Oldest Taurus on Earth”

There is only one configuration for a short nose with vertical mounted motor I think!
Battery beneath the tank and motor/carb level on centre of the fuel tank. See picture 2
So motor in lowest possible position and tank in highest possible position.
>>>>>

When you have to keep room for the radio equipment! Ed must have known that!

Taurussus, still interesting even when “Fly by Wire”!
