About the model
A peanut built by Lennart Lilienberg. At 14 grams it is no lightweight, yet it is capable of flights in the 40-50 seconds range.
It has been tested with a geared propeller drive (note the two different noseblocks in one of the photos), but no improvement
was found, the increased weight offsetting any performance advantage.
About the origial
The WACO SRE is one of the many WACO cabin biplane types from the 1930's, which have long been popular with modellers.
