In this little model can be seen the influence of Louis Bleriot on the creations of one of the pioneer aircraft designers in the new world. The three-view that inspired this model was found in an Argentine aircraft magazine. The basic shape looked suitable for a lightweight peanut scale model. Unfortunately, the skid-type landing gear does limit the size of the propeller ... unless you are willing to lose some scale points by shortening the skids in favor of getting more flight points with a larger diameter prop.

The original model flew right off the board, as we like to say.
