Our club theme this month was gliders. I purchased an original MPC Flat Cat a few months back in preparation for the launch. I didn't really want to crack the cellophane on this kit, but it wasn't doing anybody any good in the box. Once I opened it I thought, "I can just clone it with parts I already have and not build the original." So, that's what I did.
This was my first glider build and first glider to launch. And it worked the first time! lol
It flew great on a B4-2. The vid got cut off for some reason, but I'll post it as soon as I get it uploaded to youtube. In the meantime, here are some pics showing the clone with a 60's themed paint job, or at least that is what I told myself it would look like once it was done.
I plan to upscale it at some point. Not sure if that will be BT55 or BT80 yet.
