I kind of chuckled when I first saw this....but on closer exam, this thing may actually make a pretty good candidate for semi-stand-way-off scale.  Not bad moments that could be better with a bit of fudging.   H^^ D>K

Yes but did it ever fly?  ???  ??? As I understand it - a requirement for a scale project.

I have not found any information on it or its sister ship.  I did s quick web search on Hutter and did not find anything.  they were both piston engined.  you can see the exhaust stacks.

see photos.

Hütter Hü 136:

on http://www.luft46.com/

"These two projects envisioned by the Hütter Brothers did not quite reach the design specifications that the RLM set down. Along with potential problems arising from the landing procedure and the very limited vision from the cockpit, plus the fact that more conventional aircraft were being designed and built that could do the job as well if not better, these designs were not picked up for a development contract."

I built a Blue Pants as a kid. Wish I still had it. Might even learn to fly it.

they should have stayed designing and building gliders.  From what could find these were design concepts.  The projects never made it to the prototype stage.

The designs looked interesting to me - but I was thinking maybe 1/2a proto speed.
