How about Neo Old Timers designs...Simply "Rudolph"

[Guga]

Symply Rudolph...
Inspired in the Old Timers and having constructed many of them...
Cebola (which is one of... if not the best Airmodel designer in Brazil)
Designed this little Bird that he didn´t even bother to put a name on...
(So busy his Gears are in the Brain)
So I decided to make an friend´s offer and got the plane... that I belived it fly in all kinds of conditions Park flyer to even INDOORS ...
I baptized it "RUDOLPH" since the happy image of the Raindeer came to my mind when I Flew it for the first time...
Wing Span 39"
And if ever SANTA had to chose an airplane I´m sure he wud get something like "Rudolph"
A Plane that on "take off and landing" you apply 1/4 throttle and just leave the Tx on the ground hands off... amazing...

Hi Guga
THis idea of "New Old Timers" is not new at all!

The indoor FF guys have long been designing new ones! "Pseudo Dime Scale" is one contest for suchlike.

And in my small collection of old models, I have one built off a plan from back in 1990 or so.

A Dutch gentleman showed up at Old Warden - the museum airfield north of London, in England - with a model he claimed was a Dutch designed FF model from the vintage era. After flying it all weekend, he finally broke down and admitted that he'd designed and built it the previous week!

It flew so well, the magazine wanted to publish the design, but the builder had taken no photographs. So, I offered to oblige by building and photographing one. They gave me a copy of the plan, I started work and sent them the photos a couple of weeks later. Mine flew beautifully on one of my Mills 075 diesel engines and I still have both, though my copy of "Bugaboo". as the model was named, needs recovering - perhaps it should be 'electrocuted' and fitted with two channel RC?

I still have my copy of his plan - hand lettered, with little cartoon illustrations all over it, besides it being very accurate and easy to build off.

So go ahead and build your own "New Old Timer"!

Thank you for the photos.
