The Nesmith Cougar - Designed by Robert Nesmith

The Nesmith Cougar Airplane (Not a toy, but a real airplane) is a popular homebuilt kit plane designed by Robert Nesmith. If anyone has any additional information on this airplane it would be most appreciated.

The above scale model of the 1960's homebuilt Nesmith Cougar was designed and built by Jack Stubbs of Culver City, California. Jack used Sport Aviation 3-views to come up with the plans for the 63-inch-span plane, and he covered it with MonoKote and Ultracote with Rust-Oleum paint. A K&B .61 2-stroke keeps this 7-pound, 6-ounce plane in the sky. Jack started modeling in 1935 and tells us that he's waiting until he's a little more proficient in flying R/C to bring the model to the field.
