Space Hopper/ Midwest kit Satellite 320

1961 clear summer morning. Young lad with friend out to do some flying. My brand new Satellite 320 with Space Hopper in the nose. Filled the tank an started engine. Only put small amount in tank and let her go. Climed like a home sick Angle and tank had way more fuel then I counted on. Well it went out of sight and was gone. No DT / no tick off timer. Two weeks later get a call from a man saying it landed in his large yard. He just found it and my plane had a address tag and phone #. Inspite of 2 wks. outside it was in good shape. I cleaned engine after I picked it up. No problem and it fired right away. lesson learned use a D/T and engine timer.
Back then we never used a reset tool. Plugs lasted for a long time. I use to buy the big Burgress battery. Not Mikey mouse d cells of that day. The plane flew great and need to build a new one. I just picked up a Space Hopper. Not new but a good one. Why the trip back in time, why not. I'm sure many of us had some good times with these engines. Cox was the ticket except for one other engine. The Holland Hornet .049/.051. When Cox released the TD line they were the best. I still used both and enjoyed them equal.
