have you ever heard this?
the world`s fastest model airplane is an Austrain slope soaring glider
called `Dassel`, which holds a speed record of 248mph!

Really? I could have sworn mine came with a nice collection of horns, albeit
the miniature kind.

Ray,
The Dassel was a constand chord aileron ship with a span of about 2M. The
Airfoil was a Eppler 182, whihc has alot of reflex. It was a molded ship
and a version of it was flown as an F3B entry back in the late 70's. Chord
was about 8", flying stab. I'll see if I can dig out some pics,
I have been able to get our PAL format Endless Lift videos at a great
price and I am
