Leo's New Ringmaster & Billy's New Big Otto
Kim Wed Feb 08, 2017 10:52 pm
Just returned from the Breezy Hill Flyers monthly meeting that debuted Leo Elder's new O.S.20-powered Ringmaster. Leo's got big plans for the Ringmaster Fly-a-Thon this fall, and will probably have a fleet of the classic stunters for the occasion.
Billy Lang brought out his new Big Otto, powered by a silencer-equipped Cox .049. His next project will be a Scientific Kingpin.
Fun bunch of dudes!

Both models were finished beautifully! The only thing wrong with them is they are too clean!

They're not electrics, so that will soon change

These are some nice looking airplanes i like the 60s paint scheme on the ring and the Otto just stands out , good colors . Kim can you tell me what the heck is holding the fuel tank on the Ringmaster , looks like wedged between two blocks of wood?

Hey,
I'll have to ask him when I get back up there. I didn't notice it 'till I edited the photos.
Yeah, these guys keep a high bar on both finishing time AND quality!

From the tiny bit of goo sneaking our near front of tank look like it was RTV on back of tank
This work but not for very long...I suspect for flight a nylon cable tie around the nose is probably used
