Stan's Concours winner was the Dove 650? Are plans still out there for it? Also, didn't he have a smaller Dove that had a K&B 40?

Don't have the article, but there's a discussion of K&B .40s and the Powell mods in this forum entry: http://stunthanger.com/smf/index.php?topic=3584.5

Hi Stevie Boy,
Give ol' Stan a call! AFAIK, his Concours winner was powered by one of his K&B .40s..... It wasn't as big as Les's Stiletto 660.
It is a beautiful model, he had two (including the Concours Winner) at Huntersville once.

Does anyone know what the balance point for the Dove is. Need to rebalance mine.
-
the 1983 sept model aviation Dove 650 artical says balance 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 back from the leading edge

If you want to build a Dove 650, you can find a downloadable copy of the plan at:

Hi Gil. Mo powa! I'm sure those K&Bs were putting out more than the LA. A Tigre .51-up would ensure the ship has enough grunt. I have a K&B .35 of that series and vintage (stock) that I'm sure is more powerful than the LA.
