This is a scratchbuilt RC plane built from plans. Made of balsa wood and covered with Coverite Microlite film. Has a lightweight Berg radio receiver and Hitec micro servos controlling rudder and elevator. Engine is a Cox .010, the smallest engine ever mass produced. I recently purchased this engine which was made in the 60s and refurbished it for flying service. Very fascinating engine, not many people fly them anymore. Mostly sought after by collectors who hoard them up uselessly instead of putting them into the air as they were intended. Run time is about 1.5 minutes on 2cc of 25% nitro glow fuel. Most folks have never seen one of these engines run, much less fly!
