Description: Here is a repaint of the Ant's Airplanes Tiger Moth Professional as DH82B Queen Bee G-BLUZ / LF858. This radio-controlled target tug used the same engine, tailplane, wings and landing gear (most often floats) but substituted the spruce and plywood fuselage of the DH60 Moth. The radio receiver and servos to operate the ignition, throttle, elevator and rudder were installed in the faired-over rear cockpit. The result was the first really practical pilotless aircraft and more than 400 were built. It could be flown manually from the front cockpit but was usually operated remotely from a console on the ground or on a ship.

LF858 c/n 1435 was built in 1944 by Scottish Aviation in Glasgow and restored to flying condition as a 2-seater in the 1980s by Mr Barry Bayes, starting with only a bare fuselage. It's now based at RAF Henlow in Bedfordshire, owned and flown by a syndicate called (of course) the Beekeepers. G-BLUZ is the world's only airworthy Queen Bee.
