Closest I've seen is the Air Camper from Exp 1.

It's also been carried over to the present Mega Pack.
Being made for an older version of RF, it may or may not need some minor physics tuning.

Made two adjustments:
Little too much lift and tended to nose over easily.

Thank You Norton. I will look for it I recently traded for used 80" wingspan sky scout and wanted some sim time as I start to add a motor and minor cosmetic items. I feel less bad if I crash on the sim and inevitably on the plane! LOL.

gofer303, the used sky scout sounds great.
Please post a pic of it sometime if possible.

Hope this came through
I am trading today for the motor a 17 cc size so it should have all the power it will need! I plan to make plastic bag thick banners to tow have to add a servo for the drop release. Have just received the motor a 17 cc Gasser.

Well I got a surprise today traded the motors and now have a 17cc motor to instal in the Sky Scout !

The lift seems to be a tad too much but otherwise the model fly's just about like I have heard the real ones. I have not upgraded to six due to wife's medical bills so someday I will. The sim is very good to fly and seeing as I have not had much time at the field in a year the sim is a big majority of midnight flying before bed. Thanks for the mods!
