About 1972. I built it didn't know a thing about monokote went to a
buddy in SE Arkansas by name of Frank Jackson. Frank and a buddy of his
from Mississippi covered my plane and Frank loaned me an old(even then)
Orbit with elevator on right and rudder on left stick. Servos would
barely fit in the fuse.
I self taught on that plane, don't recall ever catching a thermal with
it. Flew from a field waaaay to small for an inexperienced pilot. I hi
started it without any experience with a hi start, pulled on it till it
felt good and launched, never breaking a wing.
Last winter I bought a Windfree kit built it over the winter and have
been flying it this spring and early summer. You got to love the hi
aspect wing platform.
