Revisiting an older floatplane whiff. Now landbased and not an autogyro...not quite sure where I'm going with this :-\ :

Well whatever it turns out to be, I love it!

It reminds me of an anhydrous ammonia spreader or a swamp buggy racer. Adios, Larry. :lol:

Could practically be a hydroplane with that layout....

That looks so outrageous it's just GOT to be finished, no matter which direction it's going!  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The float gyro was brilliant! I'll have to keep an eye on this one.

Have you destroyed the pretty autogyro? :-\
Anyway, the new project seems interesting. Is the propeller tracting and no more pushing?
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

I need to defend myself. Due to the uber-whinging of the Wife I keep the models in my garden shed. A few weeks ago a fox got in and caused havoc, broken models amongst the damage done. I decided to take some of the damaged kits and reinvent them.

In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

Sorry to hear that. I really liked your autogyro,but I'm sure your next incarnation will be just as grand,too.  I can't wait to see it.
