Default Cyclon .061 control line model




After rummaging through my attic last month I found an unfinished wing ...complete with a working bellcrank and leadouts but with no motor mount or covering.
It looks like it might have been intended for a .10 or a .15 but I don't remember what the original intent was to build it.
It flies pretty good with a Cyclon .061 on 45 foot long Spider Line. 50 pound test.
With an ounce of 5% or 10% nitro fuel it runs for a couple minutes.
APC 5x3 prop...[nothing fancy]
The performance is so good that it makes my AMA Fast Combat planes with the .36 engine limit seem kind of ....tame.
I've got a couple videos that should be ready to upload tomorrow.
