Black Magic

[Arch Stafford]

Mike,
 
I was on RCU earlier and noticed your black magic.  I sent you a PM on
there.  Wow, what a gorgeous airplane.  I saw it at the NATS this year, but
was in a hurry when I was over at that site and didn’t get a chance to look
at it.  I love the lines of that plane.  Are you scratch building these?  Do
you have plans available?  Would you sell them?  I’m currently working for a
company that does UAV’s, but we also do some RC stuff.  I’m always open to
new designs as well, as I can wire cut wings if you’d like as well.  More
than anything though, I love the look of that plane.  I’m trying to figure
out what I’m going to fly next year and that has really caught my eye.  Let
me know any info you have on it,
 
Thanks,
 
Arch

Two of two pictures
Ok now that I see other planes I will send a picture of mine. 
I just finished my new Silhouette IV I wanted to make it light enough for
electric. I changed a few things like the gears, wings, and stab and when I
finished, I was very surprised. I was trying to get the plane it to come in
at 10 lbs. or just a little below 10 lbs. with a DZ. 1.60 on it. As I said I
was very surprised when I finished it, the plane came in at 9-lbs. 2-oz
ready to fly. I changed the wheels from 2 ¼ to 2 ¾ and added a couple of
other small items now the plane weight 9-lbs 6-oz.
