Need help identifying embry riddle eagle 580
Hi guys, I just picked up this plane at a swap meet, and would like to know who made it. The guy said it was a SIG ARF, but I can't find anything on it. He was also about 85 years old, so who knows. It looks like maybe around a 1/4 scale, 73 inch one piece wing. He said he had a Saigon 180 in it. Any thoughts?

Never mind. Right after I posted this I looked up the tail numbers and found it. It's not at all a eagle 580, it's a cap 231 EX. I think I got a hell of a deal at $130 for the airframe with servos, fuel tank and setup, and rx. All I need to do is drop in an engine.
