at our club picnic last weekend (80 degrees and light winds) Jason was flying Allen Brickhaus's Savoy, the original model used for the Dec 1996 article in Model Aviation.

Did the Savoy come before the Legacy? They look a lot alike to me. y1
On the video, I'd suggest that the camera man take a lesson from Shug. Following the airplane makes me dizzy.........maybe it's just me but, having the camera "Stationary" is a whole lot easier on these old eyes.
Just saying......

Hi Guys,
Allen let me fly this model many years ago during the Sig contest. We were looking for a solution on a particular trim problem and we're trying many different ideas but settled on a tank problem. After the new tank, the model was much better. It was a great flying model but the turn was a little soft for me at the time. Later, Allen changed the C.G. which made the turns way better with a crisp and flat exit.
Later,
Mikey

Hey guys I just happened to stumble across this thread. I ended up buying this plane from Jason Pearson's wife after he passed. I have only flown it a couple time, but it does fly nicely!
