Title: Curious about Sky... series
Post by: Larry Renger on July 25, 2019, 06:15:40 PM: Hav any of you built and flown a SkySport, Sky Streak, Skyfire or my version of the Baby Magician? All published or kitted.

Balanced and tuned correctly, they will all do a pro quality pattern in good air. Of course they can’t compare to a “big one” in less than perfect weather.

Still, fun models to fly.

Any chance you have links to these plans? I need to start planning my next bird.

Thanks in advance,

SkySport is an RSM kit. RSM can also provide plans and parts for the SkyStreak and Baby Magician. Flying Models published the original SkyFire and the 4.0 version.

For ease of building and top performance, the Flying models published Baby Magician is tough to beat.
