Wow !!!

Umm ....
Without having to search and read for hours,
If anyone remembers, I'd simply like to know ...

Weight ?
Power ?
Area ?

And how well the dihedral bracing worked ?
since I couldnt see any bracing in the pic.

birdofprey, If you click the link in my previous post (2nd one in this thread) then it gives you the stats. There is also a gallery section on that website that shows construction details.

Si.

Did the Big Floyd ever actually fly? I remember something about the gear box shredding itself before it could get off the ground...?
