Default Okay, Guess the plane!!

I purchased this kit from a lady in Canada who had it up for bid on that unnamed auction site. I got it in Nov. 3rd, and finished it a few hours ago. Guess what it is?

Why It's a flying cross. It doesn't look anything like a real airplane.

Could be a Quickie Bipe. Had one a long time ago. The bipe was an add on to the original high wing Quickie.

Peace

Looks like something Hal Debolt designed in the 60's.

Marko got it, it's a Quickie Bipe. The original Quickie was a high wing monoplane "Quarter Midget in Disguise" By Fred Reese for 3 channels, rudder elevator and throttle. Itt was in RCM in 71, I think..I'll have to check, I have the magazine. Anyway, I had ordered a set of plans and was waiting for them to come in when this kit shows up on you-know-where, so I bought it. I like small models, and I fly combat, so I have a lot of smaller equipment and .15 thru .25 engines hanging around. It's built up balsa, with a fully sheeted wing top and bottom, and with 3 HS80's, a 555 rx and a 500 mah nimh, she tips the scales at 35 ounces. Power is from an OS 15 LA. I'll let ya'll know how the first flight goes.
