Frank Burke's Newest - B.G Viper

Frank Burke has built some amazing R/C Rocket Gliders. He sells kits at http://dynasoarrocketry.com/

Here's a recent build posted on the NAR Facebook page, the Battlestar Gallactica Viper

"Wish me luck, will try to maiden this today, wings are oversized and without anhedral, but it has the "look" of a viper, eventually I will paint the portion of the wing outside the black outline of the scale wing flat black so it will look like it has a much smaller wing, and Mark at Stickershock is working on the engine detail wraps for the motor tubes. It's 2.6" diameter, 29" long, 23" wingspan, and just under 12 oz rtf, with 2 channel elevon control...."

Here's the same model after the outside edges were painted flat black - a clever and effective camouflage.

"Finished the black paint to hide the oversized wing and just accent the scale wing outline. Didn't turn out too bad."

Very cool! If you squint your eyes you don't see the oversize wing!
