Dan Santich is in the RC Hall of Fame as a designer of note. Many of his designs were kitted by Midwest Models, especially the famous "HOTS" series.

This was something different from him, so decided to give it a shot

Plans here:  https://outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.asp?ID=6790

Brief Specs:

Span: 56"
Chord: 9 3/4"
Length: 42"
Aerofoil: Double Reflex, Symmetrical
Engine used: 46 TT Pro
Channels: 4 - Aileron, Elevator, Rudder, Throttle

Not much of a build log.

To get the Double reflex aerofoil, first I planned to make foam cores with a hot wire cutter, then sheet them with balsa. Unfortunately, my skills with the hot wire are not good enough, so that was abandoned - pretty fast!

I built in corro then, using an extra spar to try to get the double reflex

That aircraft is looking so good!
Looking forward to seeing it tear up the sky.

Maiden was done successfully yesterday. Extremely fast model - tests an old man's reflexes!

Very stable flier, very nimble and sporty. Just needed 2 clicks of downtrim, and flew true

Of course Prabal! After your exams, you too fly it

Another amazing build from the perfectionist. Beautiful build sir.

The King is back with a Bang. Superb Build Sirji.

Thanks. I never really went away

Ha ha Great Sir.  Its really an honour to know people like you.

Hey! You should consider electrifying your plane PS: Global Warming.

I guess it's much simpler to convert a gasoline plane to electric than a car or something like that. Looking forward to see that build soon!

Thanks for the advice

Meanwhile, have a look: http://www.rcindia.org/rc-people/builds-i-have-posted-on-rci/msg283833/#new

Well, here I am, so dumb

Such a majestic collection!

Don't be so harsh on yourself. Not dumb, just uninformed 

Probably. I'm not a 'plane' guy. Multirotors and Batteries are my interests. So, have to definitely get started with planes, I believe.

another excellent creation by master sirji
