Barry Baxter shows having the plans.  There is one pictured with a single gear.  Here's the link.

Here is a Lion Tamer in all it's hideous glory...The gear shown is actually the nose gear - trike config.
Should I use 5/32 or 1/8? Do you think the 1/8 will support the model (main ldg gr)?

Oh MY! That is something to see. Supposed to be PDQ's answer to the Super Ringmaster?? They failed miserably!!        

But like they say, even the ugly girls like to dance! 

AFAIK any more, it was merely the Circus King, with a box fuselage, and trike gear.  The Circus King flew just as well as any Ringmaster of the era, which isn't saying a lot (IMO, the best flying profile of 1953 was the Veco Tomahawk {I can't recall if the original one came out early enough for OTS, but I don't think so}). 

I built one Circus King from the kit, and scratchbuilt two or three more of them from the patterns I'd made before building the kit.  Considering my poor flying skills during 1953 / 1954, my judgment about how well it flew is probably quite suspect.  At some point in 1955, I started building a semi-original profile that looked much like the Veco Tomahawk, and shared that airfoil, but was built the way a Lightning Streak is, with 2 spars, a large square LE set into the front of ribs, and a built-up TE.  I kept the Circus King stab and elevator, though. 

Years later, my oldest kid had a Circus King that he really loved, but his didn't last any longer than my own first one had, whan I had been at his level of flying experience.

     Whether it flies great or not it's neat to see someone building these old designs so they arn't
      forgotten.  Best of luck, I hope it does well !!!

I built one when I vwas a kid.  It crashed like all the rest.  I totally trashed the fuse, but the wing held up.  I ended puting a TLAR Firecat fuse on ti with a 1/16" Firecat tail (what did I know?).  The outboard staband elevator departed on the first flight, but I was able to FINALLY fly inverted with that bird.  For that reason, it will always have a soft spot in my heart.  Or is that a soft spot in my head??
