Turbo Esprit - bought a kit from Stan way back in 1998. Flew the wings on different fuselages - never got round to building the fus. Had 2x wing servos for camber snap etc. Flew ok but back-to-back with a Phase 6 Sport the P6 flew better. The wing section looked identical to P6 Pro - symmetrical de-cambered E374. Think of it as a P6 Pro - pretty much the same thing. Someone will love it - Stan did. Phil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentPilot Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 That Quark looked to have the same lines as my old Carmam. Flies different though!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraightEdge Posted October 30, 2018 Author Share Posted October 30, 2018 Another video of the Quark 2 - this one of Danny Chapman (of Picasim fame) flying his in Ireland, along with a delightful sound-track rather than the usual in-your-face noise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Dave (and Pete) Just dug out some old pics from decades ago and scanned them for you. The original Aeolus was all balsa, then we had a mould made for a fuselage by Bill Longley, I think we sold 100+ back in the day. No idea what happened to the mould though. I think these images of mine and David's models may have the fibreglass fuzzes but they were the same design. I also have a copy of the original plan (courtesy of Greg Dakin) which I will photograph this afternoon and put on here. No kit exists but it may be possible to copy the plan if I can find a shop that will do a one off copy. Funny thing, David just bought the wood for an Aeolus. regards, Graham (& David) Woods 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
