A very unusual subject for JetCat - the 1939 proposal from Lockheed - a twin-jet canard!  Randy Wrisley designed this and sent me his plans to put this into production.  I just had to build one and it works!  It is very stable in all aspects of flight, with a low-angle (both) right power bank that flattens to a large left glide. It is very smooth and maybe a little draggy.  Duration was regularly 20+ seconds with a tantalizing promise of being able to ride those thermals.  Plus you get 5 FAC Bonus Points for flying a canard!
Complete kit with all parts (excepting paint and glue!) as follows:
2 sheets 1/8" laser cut balsa wings
4 sheets 1/16" laser cut balsa fuselage and canard
1 3D printed fuselage nose
1 plan with instructions
2 1/16" square basswood leading edges
1 FAC-legal catapult handle with rubber
