Randy,

The only three views of this aricraft I am aware of are in a paperback called "Goodyear & Formula One Air Racing, 1967-1995, Volume Two", by Robert S. HIrsch

Here's the publisher's info:

Wind Canyon Publishing, Inc.
P.O. Box 1445
Niceville, FL 32588-1445

Here is a scan of the three-view from that book.

Feel free to contact me if I can help in any other way.

Hey Ryan,

I see now that you were using your dad's FG name.

An indoor electirc Kelly would be awesome for the new racing event! Let me know how it works out.

Robert

we are organizing a class on rcgroups, we will be holding races at hobby-shows like RCM and the toledo show and stuff. 14" span maximum wingspan, two classes, sportsman and unlimited. we are still getting some more rules set up as for the powe system and maximum weight.

yea, any one who wants to fly can fly it. i've got my pattern cut for the wings. i'm going to sand them out of blue foam for the test plane.or, maybe i'll sand them out of 6mm depron. maybe i'll build them up, that would be the best probably.
anyways, i hope to have the wings done by tonight.
again, everyone is welcome, they just have to be racing an airplane that is the same specs, as the rules state.
i am going to have my model built by this weekend i hope, then i can get the power systems worked out.

i've got my wings carved out, haven't weighed them yet, but i do have a cassutt fuse sanded out and it looks real nice, but it might be heavy, i have to hollow out the inside of the fuse still.
