Minnie Mambo
The latest completion. Flew her on Saturday. Still needs some refining and experimentation but she survived 5 or 6 flights without any damage. Powered by a Surestart with one of Bernie's intake throttles.

Re: Minnie Mambo
Beautiful build, Tee!
My first radio-controlled plane was an escapement-steered Minnie, and a couple years ago, I built another which is still flying. Like yours, it's got one of Bernies' throttle, with elevator and rudder.
Those Trexler Wheels really set it off ! Mine sports the original "Truck Wheels" from the kit. Sorta like two blocks of lead up front !!! After seeing yours, I may have to convert it to Trexlers!

Very Nice TB, congrats!
Looks like one of the Dubro 1/2A spinners.
