Hello ,
This is a model that was given to me as you see in this photo . It has since been re-built and flown , but I 've never found out the maker of this model . Maybe with a couple different pictures someone will recognize it .

That was the big question because I did not know . There were no plans or any means to ID the model so I just put an MDS78 . There is still a signifigant amount of nose weight added to balance it , so I figured it could have supported a 90 4-cycle easily.

How did it fly? A club member has one that looks just like yours, and I'm tring to see if it is like his. Anyway, here is a link to his: http://www.mempropbusters.com/images/cbsu26.jpg
Sorry for the low quality of the picture. I think his has a YS 120 on it.

Hello ,
His looks to be a different model because : the louvers are part of the cowl . The louvers on mine are on the fuse .
On the first flight of mine the MDS.78 came apart , so it is done for repair . So I can not comment on how it flies .
