kit bashed plane
 

Can anyone identify what this plane is? It is a plane that I kit bashed. Any ideas? I'll post what it is after a few days.:D

Is it a Sig Astro Hog with Cap 232 tail feathers?

Sig Seniorita wing, GP Cap tail? Fus was tricycle gear but it looks as though a turtle deck has been added. Can't really give a good guess on the fus, may the remainder of the Seniorita?

I don't know, but I do know what to do with all of my monocoat scraps now!

man, that plane is definitely hard on the eyes. It must look like a blur in the air, as I can't seem to get my eyes to focus on it holding still.

The plane is all red on the botom and is very easy to see. The base on the wing was low heat Towerkote(crap) and the midnight blue on the fuse was high heat Monokote. I didn't remember and burned a hole in the wing, hence the patches.:D

Why ? You thinking of building another one ?

I Got It - I Got It!

It's a MonoKote scrap magnet. :D

It looks like the piñata I saw at a kids birthday party once!

Anyone have any more guesses? I will post what it is later Wednesday or Thursday morning. :D

Okay, Mwright was the closest. The plane was a Sig Kadet MkII that I cut the top off of. I then cut out a wing sadle and mounted the stock wing on the botom. I changed it to a tail dragger and extended the fuse a couple of inches. The tail feathers were salvaged from a GP cap ARF. I will make another one of these soon because of it's supurb flying qualities. It's fun to take to the flying field because it's the only one like it that you'll ever see.:D

Should have guessed the Kadet MKII since the stock Seniorita does not have ailerons and the MKII does. Maybe next time.

I definitly think you should name it Piñata. Kind of a word play on the way it looks and the way one can fly it with their eyes shut while beating it around the sky. I too will start saving my monocote scraps......

Thanks for the suggestion. The current name is the Spekled Bird, but I might name version 2 the Pinata.:D
