I like odd and difficult. Here is a Peanut Scale rubber model of a Gee-Bee R-1.

Nice one Alan! Always admired the Citabria and Decathlon. Have a few hours logged in a 7KCAB Citabria in the mid 1980s.

House of Balsa Me-109 in the early 90s too. Tee Dee .049 just adequate to fly. Met the design weight of 32 ounces and should have put an .09 in it!

Cool idea for a thread, suprised no other takers.

No smart phones when I was a kid.  


Me either - everything I posted above was 35mm photos that I took out of old albums and scanned in ;)

No pics!  Sorry!

First RC was a Sig Super Sinbad glider and a Citizenship single channel with an escapement.  Some 56 years ago.

I loved the HoB kits.  Would like to get a few again.

I put an 09 in their P-51.  Even added flaps and retracts and used that micro radio Cannon made way back.  But while the engine ran it flew like a sexually active Ape.  But when that engine quit..........

I just finished up a .20 size HOB Mustang. It's really more of a Mustang shaped object but if it flies as well as the T-6 Texan in the same size it should be fun.
