Ebenezer help
Could someone explain what an ebenezer should be. I have an idea for a model but need it to know how to make it qualify.

RE: Ebenezer help
I don't think there's an official definition but the idea was started by Bert Streigler in the USA in the 1950's and is a small all sheet free flight model powered typically a 0.5 or 0.75cc diesel engine ot an .049cu in glow. They are often cartoon scale models. There is a long thread here with some plans:-

They can be built quickly and flown in quite a small area because they don't glide far.
