Pattern Planes ARF GP/EP was created by Phil Ford
Here in Europe if you want a classic pattern you are gonna have to build one. My Curare is not planned for another run. :(

However, living in good ole US of A no problem. Tower Hobbies are making another run of the 1970's Kaos GP/EP version. All plug-in wings/stabs too, keeping it easy to shove into your car. Loads of spare parts too! I know some will scowl at me for this.... :lol: Still, here is the video of the pre-production run comparing EP over GP. Shame shipping could equal the planes value probably.

I'd half had the idea to transplant the Wot4 (RIP) electronics into Kosmo at some future date... nice to know I can pick one up locally if and when the time comes.

Great Planes do a Dirty Birdy ARF, but no one seems to stock it in the UK

Looks like there may be a kit of Wolfgang Matt's Arrow coming out by Sky Aviations:

As well as Jim Martin`s Banshee, but that's a one new to me so I'll need to google it later.

Hi Alan,

I just can't get excited by the look of the Dirty Birdy, I'm not sure why, maybe it's the canopy. Looks like a potentially much easier build than the Atlas though. I only mentioned the Dirty Birdy because Phil was looking for ARTF Pattern plane.
