Has any one ever built.....

Has any one ever built the Profile Nobler, plans sold by PAMPA and drawn by Jim Harris?
I found some today that I bought back in '97.
Show pictures and or tell how yours flew. ::)
Thanks, Terry Bolin

I know of no one that has built the SNews Nbler, but there are several Profile Noblers flying around here.....a couple as a result of the fuselage shedding on the ARF Nobler...

Another was completed using the wing from a Top Flite piece that was crashed....

I built one and used the thick airfoil and put the gear in the wing. I used a ST/46 in it and it flew better than any profile that I have had including a Cardinal profile.

Ed, did you build the fuse as drawn? it seems to be very short top to bottom compared to the built up fuse. I too had planed to use the thick airfoil. Would you make any changes after having yours for a while?
