The R/C XB-70 Valkyrie Project
For the next few years, this web site will be the official
web site for my on-going scale radio controlled model of the
North American XB-70 Valkyrie.
Last Updated: February 25th, 2004
Please Note: All of the new updates will be added
to the bottom of this page, to make it sort of read like a story
for anyone that reads this for the first time after I have written
a lot about it. A guy named Herb and I have started designing the
r/c plane, and construction will begin soon. For those of you that
have been to this site in the past, it has been edited with new
information, and a lot has been changed.

I'm finally getting around to updating this page, and it won't look
like it has in the past. I'm going to include updates with links
to pictures that you can also find in the gallery page.
With that said, today I started designing the Valkyrie in a program
called "X-Plane Maker." Herb and I are going to use X-Plane
to do some preliminary CG (center of gravity) tests, and also for
some airfoil tests. See some pictures of the plane so far here.
