Top CatTop Cat  Ref: SM0018
the Top Cat was a follow on design from the Pedro which was published as a plan in Radio Modeller. It was unique at the time as it featured coupled flap and elevator mixing via a simple mechanical mixer to enhance looping manoeuvres (the outside loops were amazing!). Top Cat enjoyed success at a number of slope aerobatic competitions.
Construction, as was the norm in the early 70s consisted of a built up wing and a ply reinforced balsa fuselage. Sorry no picture but we would like one!
