Hi all!
Hope you don't mind me tagging along. I'm not a 100% scale junkie, but I do enjoy penning and building the occasional cartoon-scale model.
All my models are electric powered, and I have a penchant for the unorthodox!
Several of my designs have been published by both Traplet and RCM+E magazines - the most recent being this little Airspeed Courier;

Thanks for the welcome, Jeff!
No, that's not upthrust. The model is in a slight climb in the photo. In level flight the cabin roof is horizontal, and the thrustline is set at 0 degrees.

G Day Tim,
Enjoyed the Airspeed in the recent RCM&E, Glad to see plans of classic Brit aircraft that aren't too dificult to build. Any ideas on a DH Dragon Rapide of a similar size & in EP?
Keep those great plans coming mate.
Regards,
Stu Holmes
