Rons new one. A different Shoestring, based on an RC Pylon Racer by the same name.

It's a great looking model, very attractive paint scheme. And I particularly like the cheek cowl treatment.

Well done, I'll bet it's a good flyer as well.

Is it based on a set of plans for the fuse, or does it use a composite FUse from a Pylon plane? I have thought about the composite fuse on some of these as being a jump of point,, but never actually got far enough to measure and calculate to see how they would work...
