Here are a few photos of my 660 Cavalier, "Quick Build" by Tom Morris. Only three were ever produced and I lucked out and got one. It is under "ASSEMBLEY".  Braced and measured for accuracy.

Ty,
There were only 3 of the 660s made?  A friend of mine assembled his last year and flew it.  I had a flight on it and it was decent but it could still use some more trim.  I guess I was surprised to hear that there were only 3....

Ty
Mine was not a quick build , it is constructed of 1000 tiny pieces of 1/16 carefully glued together.
All together I have built 2 of the 650s and two of the 540s.
I think you will like the way it flies , I believe the larger one flies better than the smaller one.

The 540 is classic legal while the 650 is not.
Thanks

Ty,
The 540s are set up for Aerotigers and one of the 650 is setup for a PA40SE big block and the other one has the PA40RE Merlin .
I fly the smaller ones on 61-6 eye to eye ,the large ones are on 64 eye to eye, both .015s.

One was sold on eBAY about a month ago. I stuck in a healthy bid, but two other folks wanted it way more than I did.
