I'm sure most of you have been driving the road at any given time and seen many strange license plates. A riddle. Find it :kilroy:

Lots to do yet.

Thanks Ted. :)

I was actually hesitant to even post anymore of the Scrofa. Not much interest, so unless that changes I'll be keeping my work offline. I realize the Scrofa is not a RW plane, but still. It's a dang nice one I think.

Hey that looks great!

Since we fixed the flight dynamics I've been flying this plane a lot...I like it!

I too. I like the airframe. It is a peculiar style of craft. I like canard aircraft, as it brings back memories of my r/c days. I built one fairly similar, though the fuse shape was a bit different and had verticals on the wingtips. Unfortunately that sucker was hard to fly for me due to the canards (elevators) being reversed compared to my other planes. It took me a long time to get comfortable. Even then I was never real comfortable. Then one day I was bringing it in to land and nosed right into the tarmac. Repairable, but tore it up pretty dang good. I never did rebuild it for fear of dorking it again :icon_lol:

Oh, my meaning of the elevators being reversed, I mean on my computer radio (the elev throw switch), I had to reverse the elevators via the switch whenever I flew it. Then back for all my other planes. Doing that made it confusing. And my mishap of dorking the nose was due to not doing my standard radio test and run-up prior to taking off. And well, poop happened! If I hadn't of been so cheap, I would have had a radio specifically for that plane. It would likely still be hanging in one piece.

Just because there aren't a lot of posts, doesn't mean there isn't a lot of interest. I have been following your work with interest, but haven't posted. Sometimes, I think, people wait for the download (especially those of us who have to scan the forums quickly because we should be working). Please keep posting and uploading. It really does look great!
