I'm building a 67% version of an old favourite of mine, the Zenith 40 -- a pattern trainer. I'm calling this my Zenith P450, as I expect to be using a Park 450 890kv motor. The original appeared in the April 1996 edition of RC Modeler. According to the original article ( and memory of my long crashed original ) this plane has no Yaw-Roll couple and very nice flight characteristics. Scaled down, the control surfaces seem down right small, 22mm ailerons and 34mm elevator. They are easily enough replaced if they need to be bigger. We will see.

The wing design is obviously not the ever-popular Armin Wing. It would be nice to see a detailed video on how it was done.

Detailed video coming. I want to finish this plane first, then I'll make a wing build video.
