Plans for the Hovering Cobra

[Daniel Dupont]

Hi Van,

I have the set of plan an it's new, I made copy to used during construction 
that I cut up....that way I can look at the plan on the wall during 
construction.

The problem is that this plane design was sold to somebody...either in 
Australia or New Zealand ??  I could perhaps send you a copy of it, I will 
see if I have a couple left....I would also send a copy of the manual.

I lost mine last summer due to the elevator servo screw backing off the 
servo just enough to allow the arm to be free....while I did like the plane 
a lot there two thing I would modify, the fuselage is very weak I 
understand that some were weaker then other mine was weak....during roll 
you could observe the tail bending.. pretty neat effect, number two with my 
Extended Van I had difficulty carrying two Pattern Planes and this Fun 
Fly...it's big 48 x 54 if I remember correctly so I would make the wing two 
pieces I think.

Regards Daniel
