I had a customer ask if I had a rubber-powered Ugly Stick kit available.  At first, I was repulsed (rc?  ugh!), they I thought it might be fun to make such a thing.  So I did!  I designed this at Embryo size and I have added some things to "pay tribute" (ha!) to the ubiquitous sport plane.
  1. I designed a look-alike glow engine to build up
  2. because you have the nerve to fly an rc design in Free Flight, I am NOT providing
    1.  the FAC Embryo Bonus for wheel pants - or -
    2. the FAC Embryo Bonus for cabin/cockpit
    3. there is no provision for any sort of DT
  3. I am providing over-sized 3D-printed wheel halves (glue them together)
  4. I am providing 3D-printed landing gear in the style of the dural gear

This kit builds fast and - uh oh - flies well!  My testing proved that this model is a tree magnet.  I had to rescue it 3 or 4 times while testing one afternoon.

This SHORT KIT contains a plan, two sheets of laser cut parts, a 3D-printed landing gear, and a pair of 3D-printed wheels.

My prototype used a 6.5" prop with a loop of 1/8" rubber.
