[NSRCA-dist8] Oldies

[J N Hiller]

Yah Bill, I got rid of all that stuff when I converted to electric. Those airplanes were over built and heavier than necessary. Plywood doublers? Really.

If there are any scratch builders out there, here are the drawings for my Option 120, published in Flying Models in July 2007. The building sequence of activities is coded on the drawings. I also have many construction photos. The PDF files can be printed full size by anybody that runs 36" wide roll paper.

I can cut the foam cores but I won't ship them, too expensive. Or just use 'build-up' construction. 

I found it to be pretty competitive in Advanced, and the OS-120 is a really nice motor.

Thanks, this did bring back a lot of memories.  i built 11 Kaoses the first two years I flew pattern (71 and 72).  I still have an Utter Kaos hanging in the shop and a recent H-9 Dirty Birdi with a Rossi I built for Brett 3 years ago that has never been flown. The DB has electric retracts (mistake) that makes it a bit on the heavy side.  i still have some K&B Lee Custom 61s,  a number of Rossi engines, HP 61s, Enya 60s, Webra 61s, and lots more I can't remember right now.  Yes, I'm crazy.
