Jim, Earl claims great flying model in windy weather, with duration
times that exceed regular tractor designs. He also claims the same in
dead air. This model has a twin bladed folder and a single retractable
gear. Also of note: the left wing panel is 1" longer than the right to
neutralize torque...........Thom

quite wellknown as a designer so it may have some potential. What claims
were made for the model in the article? A simple box-fuselage variant
might be worth experimenting with.
