Hi all!

Hope you don't mind me tagging along. I'm not a 100% scale junkie, but I do enjoy penning and building the occasional cartoon-scale model.

All my models are electric powered, and I have a penchant for the unorthodox!

Several of my designs have been published by both Traplet and RCM+E magazines - the most recent being this little Airspeed Courier;

That's a NEAT looking airplane - the cowl makes it look like there is upthruse=t?

Anway, welcome to RCSB - I'm sure you will fit right in with the rest of us!

Thanks for the welcome, Jeff!

No, that's not upthrust. The model is in a slight climb in the photo. In level flight the cabin roof is horizontal, and the thrustline is set at 0 degrees.

G Day Tim,

Enjoyed the Airspeed in the recent RCM&E, Glad to see plans of classic Brit aircraft that aren't too dificult to build. Any ideas on a DH Dragon Rapide of a similar size & in EP?

Keep those great plans coming mate.

Regards,

Stu Holmes

Hi Tim- you can't be all bad if you like unorthodox! Hooper was an airplane sub contractor in WW I- right? Relations? Regards, Michael
