ebay seller bichnstuff which means I guess sells really great stuff disassembled and carefully packed this model avoiding the fate that befell the similar SE5 I received last month. He also included eight pages of interesting backgrounds that I will scan into the archives here if they are not there already.

Pilot has an interesting nose, and C/L ready if desired.

Found the rest of the pilot. Having a Kit will help duplicating the broken parts and duplicating the decals.

Good stuff Robert!! We have a lot in common when it comes to multi-winged aircraft!

CEF member Ian1954 and I had been sharing notes/ideas regarding RTP/RTF (Round The Pole/Remote Tethered Flight). Ian had conducted some flight-tests with a tethered "KK" Radian model; equipped with an RC receiver for controlling an elevator servo. He controlled the model via an RC transmitter from outside of a very small flight-circle located within the confines of a garden-terrace outside his London flat.

Here's my point; RTP/RTF flight might be just the ticket for you to enjoy flying some appropriately-outfitted models "at home"... without having to worry about getting dizzy.

RTP tethered-flying is something that has interested me for decades.

I have some information on RTP.. and there's lots of vids on YouTube. Feel free to pick my brain for questions. Smile

Seems like there was a post here some years ago of a fellow in the UK flying one without the R/C.
