2/3 Request

The backing plate is from Cox International. I believe it uses a .049 spraybar and needle valve. The spraybar is pressed into the molded plastic reed holder. The wingspan on this model is 30 inches. That would make the original model around about 46 inches.

Cool i did not think of that JasonWI on here 3D printed those for Cox Inter. and I have a few myself he had sent me to try a few years ago , But unfortunately i didn't get to it as quick as some others did .

Thought I would post a couple pictures. I did finish this back in March. I first few it about a month ago.

How was the flight ? Looks like it got up there pretty hi.

Flies real nice. I used a couple of number 2 washers to give it some right-hand turn under power. It has just a touch of right-hand glide. It's kind of a slow flier.

Nice job on the airplane . Looks like fun

COOL sounds my speed , Thanks

I could see someone converting it in to a Electric 2 or 3 channel park flyer. I think would make a good first RC model.

Hi bsadonkill,
Nice model airplane ! I like model airplanes that look like model airplanes !
Nice FF field...
-I like the fuel tank, simple is best...
-clear yellow wing covering, is awesome in the sun. Hard with less light.
How much does it weigh ?
~15yrs ago, Dad built his elec versions of Buzzard Bombshells. Very similar to your Ruffy.
-the 36in span weighs 13oz, 24in one, 7oz. Elec RET r/c.
-they do fly nice.
-I like getting them up there, setting the trims, and watching them FF as long as I can...
-Then able to land back on the field !
Don't ask me about the old elec setups. I just charge and fly. 20min timer, then land.
The smaller one has a longer nose/batt fwd/ less nose weight. A 'Turbo' look !
There are allot of cool old FF designs...
Take care,
Have fun,
Dave

Thanks, HalfaDave. It weighs in at 128 grams about 4 and 1/2 oz.
