What plane was that?
« on: June 13, 2014, 11:10:13 AM »
When I was at Brodak doing video I saw a profile plane flying in another circle while I was videoing that looked like it didn't have a vertical stab at all. The top and bottom of the rear of the fuse looked to be symmetrical. I didn't have time to hunt down the plane and pilot when I was done videoing. Anyone have any idea of what plane that would be ? Haven’t found anything searching the net yet.

Look familiar?

I very much doubt you saw a copy of this particular airplane, but the fuselage side-view is lifted from Bob Hunt's Genesis.  While I know of no Genesis profiles, a profile from a full-fuse plane is a pretty easy plans-bash.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

Nope this one was more square at the back. Didn't have a slant.

It looked sort of like a Doodlebug but more refined for precision stunt.

It looked sort of like this but the plane I saw was yellow.
