This project has been an unfunded cooperative effort between the authors. Due to this situation, the project could not be completed due to a crash in August 1997 of the Converse RPV. During a flight test of the Converse RPV, while in a low energy state, flew into the downwash generated by the wind coming over a forested area near the flying site. The Converse was underpowered during take-off and go-around landing aborts, but acceptable for other flight phases. The Converse RPV was repaired and modified to include a larger engine. The repair and modifications returned the Converse to flight status in December 1997, but it has not completed its requalifying flights at the time of this writing.
