Not sure what year this kit was made, But I know I had one in either 1968 or 1969. Flew the wings off of it on very short lines, in the cul de sac we lived on. Once, I started the motor with my brother on the handle and let it go. Almost immediately after standing up, the plane center punched me in the back, knocking me flat on my face! I was lucky to find this awesome example of plane and engine, enjoy!

I LOVE THAT! I was 9 years old in 1969. What a great-looking model-airplane!

Another vote for the first Duralum picture

Jeezzus Bill wake UP!! even I would have voted for that instead of my own entry

Please start another thread with a LOT of photos of that plane...I think I can do a decent job of morphing one of my (in head) bashs and come up with a similar shiny aluminum finish

Congrats Brad, beautiful lil critter...too bad the R/C carb is not widely available on the marlket for the 020, I would buy one for my 020-s.

roddie Wed Apr 12, 2017 5:00 am

KariFS Wed Apr 12, 2017 5:46 am

Nice Brad , well deserved Small Cox Logo

Excellent friend, very good set, you have built a beautiful engine !. It is always very useful all the work you do and share here with us.
Congratulations on this recognition !! Beer Cheers

NEW222 Wed Apr 12, 2017 9:02 am

Congrats Nut. Good Job!

1/2A Nut Wed Apr 12, 2017 10:08 am

Thank you gents, was a modification I had been wanting to do for many
years with a RC carb, what a sweetie of a engine for the right plane.

cheers to all Beer Cheers

Thank you very much for those who voted for the conversion project!!!
Thank you Matt from Ex Model Engines who saved the day with the special 11/64-40 threaded die!!!

There are some quality engine photos this time around and some nice plane pics too.

- Perhaps a plane of the month contest poll could be parked under the engine of the
month poll. A great chance to show off finished project builds restorations and precious
planes saved from the past. Required power a Cox engine of course!

Yes a very cool winner ----- Congrats, I almost voted for it my self

Thanks to the other two members who voted for mine!

I am up for the idea of an add on monthly "Cox" Powered Airplane, Car, Boat, Rag, Rocket*, Helicopter, Toy, "Model" of the month .... no prizes needed... Bernie and Matt are already very generous

* Yes Virginia I saw a Estes Rocket one time with a PeeWee 20 on the nose... launched just like it was impuls motor powered

Large fins canted to counter the Porp torque.... went close to straight up....was pretty cool to watch

akjgardner Wed Apr 12, 2017 12:28 pm

Congrats Nice Picture

Thats a great idea, I was actually thinking about that the other day

Mark Boesen Wed Apr 12, 2017 3:22 pm

Opinions and elbows, just about everybody's got one or two...

I've always like the idea of 'Picture of the month' where it could be a engine, plane, or anything related to the group. Composition, focus, lighting, background, etc., would be the key, more of the photo and not the subject.
