RE: Mystery Aircraft...can you name it?

This aircraft could be as hard to identify as yesterday's over-cooked hard boiled Easter egg. Here's the hints.
*Manufacture had never made a complete aircraft before. Only parts
*Manufacture long gone in the history books.
*Aircraft itself named after an Indian tribe
*Used P&W Wasp engine.
*Suffered from lateral instability even after many fix attempts.
*US Navy found it to be a dud.
*Developed it too as a float plane.
*No production of this aircraft was ever made.

Ferry,....oooops! I totally missed that UNTIL after I had posted the aircraft.
:redf: Now to put myself through the butt kicking machine!
The aircraft is the Eberhart FG-1 Comanche. After Eberhart's attempt in the production of this aircraft,...they returned to manufacturing of metal parts for the aircraft industry.
