Jay, that is an excellent little Bipe! My old flying bud Chris Basile built that one from a magazine plan in 1973...(Larry Scarinzi's original plan? Not sure. But it did fly, surprised all of us, with that .020!
I had a Cox .010, so I built a Gee Bee with a 10" wingspan, built-up fuse, (3/4" thick) and an oval white glue bottle cut in half for a cowling. (scale gear, vac-u-formed pants) My "R-1 fever" caused me to build a whole covey of Gee Bees, from 1/4A to .60 size...
Gee Bee flew, but barely. I have to retro-fit it with the .020 one of these days...but I don't expect 'Queen Bee' performance!
Just wanted to thank so many 'in the know' for contributing to this technology we now have.
I went into the suggested R/C site to see the plans for this Queen Bee, all I had to do was click and print! The plan slid out of my new 'Brother' printer like a wish that had been granted!
Twenty years ago, I was at the mercy of the folks that had saved & collected plans from years back.
We take it for granted.
