Came across this
Bit rough round the edges , but has a lovely patina of being used - not just posed.
Looked a bit Dinky compared to the Syn' didn't get chance to speak to the driver/owner - but I bet He wouldn't swap.....

What/where was the show? I haven't been to one for a few years now, I used to build models back in the 70's right from gliders (KK Caprice), rubber powered, to free flight (run after it ) then to R/C when 4 channels was rare, many were still using pulse single channel radio's but I saved up for a Futaba 3 channel system that had a brown transmitter which I still have. Had great fun building some David Boddington R/C models (Tinker was brilliant) then moved onto a Gangster, great days, as I'm soon to retire I quite fancy building a Puppeteer as a retirement project
