      Our local fly club had a snoopy on our news letter and had him proudly on our club shirts and hats and we got a cease and desist letter. Please come to Jacksonville,FL Gateway RC flying club in December for our toys for tots fly in. The Marines always send a hummer and 2 soldiers to collect the bicycle landing fee for this great day of flying. We would love to have you.

It was for electric round the pole with one motor driving a prop hidden in the doghouse Snoopy wae a flat cutout sat on the roof to the rear. Control was throttle only and it would trundle round the circuit sedately. I flew it at the 1975 model engineering exhibition. Sorry no photos have survived

    First time I saw one of those was at Stanton Hobby Shop in Chicago in the 1970's. Very impressive. It was not quad copter based, due to the year. It was gas engine power in a conventional tricycle landing gear. I heard it was a bear to fly due to the short top heavy design. Snoopy was flat, not 3d due to the wind resistance in a conventional airplane configuration. Sad to see a post on the closing of this hobby shop in Chicago 2 decades ago.

Not only was the dog house flying, but the same guy flew an ironing board, a lawn mower, and a flying toilet did get quite a bit of laughter from the spectators. The builder was a professor of aerodynamics who claimed that you could make anything fly if you apply enough power. Indeed!
