'Radio Princess' ~ Laser-cut Rib Set

Remember the 'Radio Queen'? Here's Dave McDowell's pretty scaled-down 58-in version. The original ED Radio Queen designed by Colonel Taplin, was 84 in span and used an ED 3.46. It was flown in many radio competitions throughout the fifties with reasonable success with numerous engines. It was the first model aircraft to fly across the English Channel in the early fifties
