simpleflyer | Guillows Series 4000 - Cloud Buster | Flying | 25-Aug-10 20:24 | | Views : 609 | Dissappointed with the damage and curious to see if it would fly with the shortened tail boom. We tried a flight with the remains and it did fly, sorta. |

simpleflyer | Guillows Series 4000 - Cloud Buster | Parked | 25-Aug-10 20:15 | | Views : 639 | Early in 2009, we decided to build a partner for the modified Cloudbuster. Unfortunately, we didn't take any construction pix. But we do have this completed structure before covering. We kept the areas, and most of the demensions and moments of the CB. The wing and tail structure was simplified and the dihedral changed to polyhedral. The tailboom and swept vertical tail was retained. The nose pod was cleaned up to include the removeable wing mod, ballast box, and semi-enclosed nose wheel into a single unit. Both of the models are 17 inches wingspan. |
