What is it?
« on: July 21, 2009, 05:41:28 PM »
Someone gave me this old stunt ship. I have no idea what it is. It has numbers on the ribs so it came from a kit.
The covering seems like paper, not tissue.

Figure I may rework it at some point and use it as a tool.

When restoring it make sure to check out the control system and change everything that needs changing!
You don't want to fly it and have it doing it's own thing!  %^@
