Wingspan 22”
Engines .051 - .09
Designed by B. R. Bumstead
THE currently popular trend towards a rugged stunt/combat design for small engines, usually takes the form of a normal flying wing with the elevator hinged to the T.E. This often results in no more than a moderately manoeuvrable design. IT, however a “flying tail" is utilised, the manoeuvrability and handling characteristics are greatly enhanced, but the resulting design has the tendency to appear stark and functional. Blue Bayou is an attempt to combine in a “wing" design, both good manoeuvrability and yet achieve a certain degree of aesthetic appeal. The model is designed for engines of 1-1.5 c.c. capacity, although, if care is taken to keep the weight down, some of the more powerful 0.8 c.c. diesels-Frog 80, D.C. Merlin, etc. could be used.
