Does anyone have pictures of the Fancy Pants they could post? Would be much appreciated. Please no half nude pictures of a fat guy in multi-colored pants.

Larry,

What in the world are "half nude pictures"? I'm really having a lot of trouble with this one...

Good one, DDR! I guess that being half nude is like being half pregnant.

Here are a few pictures of my Just finished Fancy Pants. It's just waiting for that newly broken in, Larry Foster tuned, Fox 35 to be installed. I don't think it turned out too bad for my first full fuse kit.

Elwyn,
That's mine. It is the first Fancy Pants I built....and the best flying one. 30 oz, G.M.A. chromed and custom modified O.S. Max.35S. Flew entire pattern in fast four stroke. Unfortunately, crashed in heavy wind at VSC in hourglass when lines went slack and upper line tangled with lower eyebolt on control handle. Three quick loops and then straight in. A total loss. Since then have built two more. Great flying if built light and straight.

Wow nice finish Chris. What did you use? How much does it weight? What motor?

I have one and plan on using an OS 29 Twin Stack. I hope I can build it light enough for the motor. You guys sure have some nice birds there.

Jay,
Weight - 30 oz. Molded turtledeck, carved canopy, Micafilm on wings, .2 oz carbon fiber on fuselage with nitrate, topcoated with rustoleum. Fox .35 modified with balanced crank, stuffer backplate and hemi head. B.Y. & O 10 x 6. Homemade uniflow tank. Adjustable leadouts, wingtip weight box, homemade flap and elevator horns (silver brazed), carbon fiber pushrods with ball rod ends.
I really like the look of the "Smoothie" so used similar style canopy. Otherwise built to plan outlines from scratch.
