Recently completed project. A scratch-built Royal Coachman, a Don Dewey design from 1965. Modified for E-power, added ailerons, carbon landing gear plus pull-pull rudder control. My brother and I logged many flight hours on this design back in the late sixties early seventies at the local football field, courtesy of the University of Pittsburgh. Then outfitted with a Bonner RC system (rudder, elevator) and a OS Max 15 (no throttle). Now Futaba 14MZ RC system, mini servos thru-out powered by a Rimfire .10 electric motor using 3SP 2200 mAh batteries. RTF weight is 2lbs 4ozs.

Flies like a dream, but maybe have something to do with the pilot. Maybe it will be flown at the SCRC 5th annual pattern classic. Blackmon
