Old S'CooL Hobbies has acquired the original plans for a 4 meter version of this great full scale aerobatic contest ship from the 1940's. Currently a few have been built and are actively flying in France. We are underway constructing a 3 meter version as a hybrid model, meaning the fuselage is EPP foam, wings EPS foam with balsa skins, EPS balsa sheeted foam tail feathers. Many innovative building techniques will be incorporated in the model.

Two of these models are in progress. We hope to have the first plane flying by March. Keep checking back for progress.
