The WILDest CAT
Article Abstract:
The WILDest CAT is a fun-fly profile model airplane that features all-wood construction, profile fuselage and wire landing gear. It is a profile model of the World War II navy fighter that is seldom modelled probably because of the very rounded fuselage and the narrowness of the landing track which are both difficult to reproduce.

Control linkage for giant-scale models
Article Abstract:
Safe, reliable giant-scale airplane performance can be achieved with proper control linkages. Linkage rigidity, mechanical advantage and linkage attachments are important. Control linkage needs to be rigid and free of flexing. Attachments should be secure and free of binding, slop and 'twist.'
