Top Fite Taurus Maiden Flight

This is a scratch built Top Flite Taurus from the original Top Flite Taurus plans. The Taurus is a vintage pattern airplane designed by Ed Kazmirski in the early 1960s. His personal one is on display in the museum at the Academy of Model Aeronautics in Muncie, Indiana.
This airplane was covered to resemble Ed's personal contest Taurus. There were two of these constructed at the same time. So far only one has been flown.
Not bad for a maiden flight, air to air video via a drone with come in the near future.
The construction video can be found here:

I fly off of gas and put bigger wheels on all of my aircraft. I don’t care if they don’t look scale I’d rather have a nice handling airplane!!!

Great looking plane. I think the tail looks too high when taxiing. Being four years ago it's probably fixed by now, lol.

Very nice... so how did you like the Taurus? I've been thinking of building one for quite some time. Thanks for uploading this.
