In its day the Tornado was one of the very best, and even today is capable of flying the current FAI clubman’s schedule very comfortably, the Tornado was designed around 0.60 glows of the era, but any modern 0.55 to 0.75 will suffice. If you wish toconvert to electric it is possible with some modification.
