This is the product of Jim Sumner from Hartford, Ct area taken at the Wrentham, Ma contest around 2012 or 13.I counted 22 airfoils including the wings and stabilizers. A mismatched pair of 60's I think. It did do the entire stunt pattern.
He had something less ambitious at the NATs one year. I will admit I didn't pay much attention and sort of dismissed him as, er, eccentric. But he was flying over on Circle 1, got to inverted flight and the engine went dead rich. Uh oh, that's gonna leave a mark, hope he doesn't try to do an outside loop to recover because it will never make it. He starts walking off center, towards the end of the L-pad, I figure he trying to skid it in inverted in the grass. But no- he walks it so far towards the end that the airplane is over the side of the hill and he *does half an *inside loop** , that is, toward the ground and down the hill far below his feet , recovers upright, then walks it back over the pavement, engine runs out of gas, he lands upright. It was brilliant!
Just goes to show you, model airplane guys are pretty smart as a bunch, you can't just immediately write them off because they will surprise you.
