This is the result after rebuilding my Firecat after a recent crash. The original fuselage was too far gone to repair. I had part of an old Ringmaster fuselage, so I added the turtledeck canopy in the style of the AeroSport Extra 300. I removed the rounded wingtips, and made a new rudder for it. The model is semi-scale, the wingspan is greater in proportion to the fuselage length than the actual Extra 300.
Specifications:
Wingspan - 41"
Length - 26.5"
Wing area - 390 sq. inches
Engine - OS.25 FX
Prop - APC 10-4
I wish the image quality were better, all I have is a webcam
from which I grabbed a frame and enhanced in PhotoShop
as best I could. The grayscale image seems sharper.

The Extra 300 is a very popular model for RC aerobatics, and
I've always wished there was a C/L version.
