OK.... Mine isn't as fun...but it is functional!

Took my sons .99 cent balsa flyer and doubled it... out of fan fold foam....
used a AAA battery for nose weight ( a bit nose heavy, but we will work on that!)

Sorry... just couldn't get a good picture...


Glides pretty nicely!

It looks great! Ultimately the little guys really just want something their dad built, good flier or not.
Where is Carleton at anyhow? I grew up in South Lyon.

Yep...he already asked me to put a motor on it!!


Carleton is just northwest of Monroe.... about 30 minutes north of Toledo....
right about where I-275 and I-75 meet up...


My folks live in Northfield township.... just south of South Lyon...


If you remember the area...they are a bit north of North Territorialial road... off of Sutton.
A bit east of US-23

Keep up the good work with the foam and the little guy. The next time I get back home I will give you a heads up, maybe we can laugh at kid stories.

I think his mom may get him some Zurichs just to keep the girls from chasing him. No more prom night worries
