Very nice, Pete. Will we be seeing it at Woodland this spring? I love the design and have two Smoothies, one Brodak "original Smoothie" and one ARF take-apart. Plus an unbuilt Dumas kit. The Dumas (so-called) plans show inverted mounting as an option, with the engine removed from the TOP though a hatch! Palmer built a variety of noses on his designs. Thus, here is evidence an inverted engine Smoothie is legit in Classic and maybe OTS though not sure the inverted engine variant was around by Dec 52.
