The model is scaled directly from the prototype. Since actual measurements were made and factory 3‑views used we feel certain the drawings will satisfy the most rabid scale fan. Scale is l"‑equals‑l', giving a 42"‑span model. The exterior detail drawing includes the decoration and insignia used on the prototype which was based at the Newark, N. J., Air Force Base. This particular airplane is an instrument ship flown by Air Force Reserve pilots, including this model builder
The model weighs 32 oz. and effective wing area is 232 sq. in., resulting in a wing loading of 13.5 oz./100 sq. in. This is a bit on the heavy side for tight vertical 8's, but big loops and inverted flight can be done easily if you want to do some limited stunt flying. The plans show a symmetrical airfoil which is the only departure from scale on the original model. True scale airfoils are also shown. Power can be any of the glow plug engines from .32 to .60 cubic inch
