I've seen that fly at one of our local funflies, by the designer. It flies very well, the slow speed is INCREDIBLE :eek:. He could just float it around the sky. Amazing. Goes fast too :)

You might even be able to pick up an old kit on Ebay. I think Sig manufactured it a while back.

North Star is a Balsa USA kit. $99.95

Now that I think about it, it might have been an earlier Balsa USA kit I was thinking of. I recall it had the prop mounted pusher, level with the wing. It was a Laddie Miulasko plane though. Another delta.

..that was the "Force One" probably, ..shown here..

Hi Slurf (neighbour)- Where are you thinking of flying the beast! I have been looking at Laddie Mikulasko's latest - Arrow, staight delta! (RCM July 2004). Check the threads over on rcuniverse. A nice electric Twin Pondmaster was published in the RCM June 2003 (that could probably fly off the puddles on our flying strip at present!)
I am currently building a sport version of a Schneider Racer - hoping to finish and fly it soon!

G'day Gordon,
Have been struggling to do any building since going back to work fultime BUGGER. Have decided I need to be sitting down period to do any at all which makes it a very slow process. :rolleyes:

I am still keen to do a North Star though it's an impressive looking beast. I a attempting to open the file ya sent. :p

I dare say our field not much better either although ours on Sand so drainage notto much of a problem. :o

The Schneider Racer sounds neat any pic's then. :cool:

Cheers Sluf7.(Nick) :D

P.s. Ah pic of me build at present a Gym-E. Don't ask how long it's taken to get this far.
