There are a couple of pix of one going together in this message:

Basically, it is a Bearclaw wing in a Ringmaster fuse.

There are other references in the 1/2A section to a design in Model Aviation by Jim Petro - but that is a different design.

edit:  Just found a couple of shots of one in flight:

It is a yellow profile and shows up in several photos through the whole thread.

I got one of those as a hand me down IIRC. It flew good, I didn't... had way to many previous repairs to salvage it.

It's interesting that modelers recognized the crappy airfoil many years ago,
yet were still building it and trying to tweak a flawed design. OTS rules and all of that.
