Bronco fit for a king

Model Airplane News, Jan 2000 by Chianelli, Chris

Rich Uravitch certainly knows how to design them so they build easily and fly right. There are few things you can do to improve on one of Rich's designs-except, maybe, to make one bigger! And that's exactly what "The King," as I call him, has done. Hot on the success of his original OV-10 design, Rich has drawn up a new, 81-inch-span, balsa-and-ply version for a pair of .46 to .60 2-strokes.

At its 12pound design weight, the warbird works out to a very manageable 22.7 ounces per square foot. wing loading. The Bronco calls for a minimum of four channels; flaps and retracts are optional. Rich's OV-10 will be the subject of an upcoming Model Airplane News construction article that will have all the details about plans, formed parts, etc.
