Default What Kind of Plane Is This?

Please no one shoot my down because I'm cross posting this from: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/arf-...did-i-buy.html

But this plane looks patternish...so maybe someone over here can help.

It appears to be an ARF, 64" long with a 67" wingspan. Didn't bother to put the canopy or cowl on for the pics.

Anyone seen one of these before. Couple of pictures are attached.

I've search around the interweb, manufacturer sites, sales sites, google imgs, etc. But can't find it.

Any thoughts on what it might be would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Great Planes Venus. Probably the 1.20 size. They had a smaller size as well.

I think it's a Hobby People Excelleron 90. I built a couple of them for a friend a few years back. Just sold one of those for my friend to another club member.

Awesome! Thanks so much. After a DNA comparison I have confirmed it to be the Excelleron 90.

Now does anyone have a manual lying around I can bum off them, or seen a pdf online somewhere, other than the $3 one on the Hobby People website?

Google was nice enough to find one for me once I got the right search terms in there.

I attached it, in case someone else every needs one. One more place to find it.

But I'll give credit for its source as well: http://media.globalhobby.com/manual/127565.PDF

Thanks everyone for your help, now I can straighten up and flight right!
