Gentlemen,

Attached are photos of my latest Stand Off Scale model aircraft.  It is actually a Jim Silhavy "Magician" (published January 1951). 

Below are particulars of the aircraft:

AIRCRAFT WEIGHTS:
     engine, muffler, & fuel system              13.0 oz
     wing & landing gear system                 15.7 oz
     fuselage                                            5.0 oz
     vertical stabilizer & rudder                    0.4 oz
     horizontal stabilizer & elevator               2.2 oz
     covering & paint                                 4.1 oz
     tip weight                                          0.7 oz

   TOTAL WEIGHT                                    41.1 oz

Engine:                                OS Max 35 S         (purchased in approx 1980)

Fuel Tank:                            Sullivan 4 oz slant  (used because on hand)

Notice the Stooge loop at the rear of the aircraft.

The front Control Line is UP.

I build in to the outboard wing tip 75% of the expected tip weight.

The CG (center of gravity) is .25 behind the design CG.

The aircraft is completely covered with Silkspan.

That looks great.  Amazing what can be accomplished when we put our mind to it.  How does it fly?  DOC Holliday
