Hey Guys, I have been looking at this plane a lot, and I really want to build one, but cant find any kits of it RC. I saw a kit for sale a while back of one, but havent seen anything of it since then.... This thing looks like a speed Demon!! It would be an awesome biplane... Anyone know of any kits??? thanks a lot
Kevin

I HAVE A SORCERESS AND HAVE HAD 1 MIDAIRED AT A RACE IN OHIO. I KNOWA PERSON WHO BUILDS A PARTIAL COMPOSITE KIT IT HAS A GLASS FUSE, A GLASS LOWER WING GUT USES A STANDARD FOAM AND BALSA TOP WING. WE RACE THESE IN USRA BIPE CLASS WITH A GAS GT80. LET ME KNOW IF YOUR ARE STILL INTERESTED AND EMAIL ME AT BIGDOGR@SBCGLOBAL.NET. I HAVE SOME PIC OF MINE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM.

ONE OTHER THING I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU IS THAT I HAVE MET LEE MAHONEY AND HE IS QUITE A CHARACTER.
HE LIVES SOUTH EAST OF PARKER AZ. WHEN WE HAD RACES AT PARKER HE WOULD COME TO THE RACES AND BRING PARTS FROM THE ORIGINAL PLANE (SPARE & EXTRA PARTS) TO THE RACE AND HE LOVE TO TALK ABOUT HE AND HIS FATHER BUILDING IT IN THIER GARAGE. ALSO IT WAS GOING TO BE POWERED BY A CHEVY 283 V8 UNTIL THE BIPLANE COMMITTEE FOUND OUT AND OUTLAWED AUTO ENGINES. IF IT HAD BEEN ALLOWED IT WOULDN'T HAD CHEEK COWLS AND AND REAL SLEEK NOSE.

Wow thank you so much for this information!!! that is so cool to hear about some history of the plane. I havent really had a racing plane before, so i am probably going to wait a while if i do get one. I will probably get a viper 500 and work my way up though. thank you so much for the info

FWIW. From Parker 2007 race.

HI YELLOWMAN

There's a nice picture of this plane at the Air & Space museum in Dulles, right here on Flying Giants !! That sure is a beauty !!

Thanks, John

Yup that plane sits in the air and space museum at Dulles. Right next to Nemesis .

I came across your post while doing research on this plane. Don't know if you're still interested, Lazer Works is selling a short kit of the sorceress and the plans are available through Model Avaition plans service as Lee Mahoney Sorceress #50312.

I have 2 of these kits if you are still interested. I am taking one to Toledo this weekend to sell

Nice!

I might have a partially built kit, have to look if I still have it. I was going to throw it away.
