Giant RC Zlin Z 37 Scale with Moki Star 5 cyl

My Model was built 1997 to 1998 and first flown 1998. The Building kit from Airworld (Germany) is a full Glass fiber made kit. However,all former's etc in the fuselage and also the wing tube location / fitting was still to be done. all positioning and boards for the Radio installation needed to be made. Flaps are powered by an converted pneumatic U/C drive. A lot of work, but the result is a fantastic flyer! I did participate in documenting the original plane in Germany for an AeroTop video. A few of clips from my camera are seen on the end of this Youtube posting. Presently this model is being repaired - for the third time - by my good friend Tony Noonan after I made a terrible bad landing. The model has a 3.56 m wing span and it's weight is 24.5 kg It has flown more than 400 flights. The motor is a 5 cylinder Moki Airworld motor using petrol (Gas in the US). 1 liter gives a 30 minute long flight as only 50% POWER IS NEEDED TO FLY.
