Default Need Help Identifying This Plane...!!

Hi Guys, I was given this plane by a friend who put it together but never flew it. I have flown it several times, but recently it has been sitting with no recent air-time.
When he gave it to me he said the plane was made by, "Windward RC" and it was called a, "Tuf-1". I can't seem to locate it anywhere. The plane has installed an O. S. FS40 Surpass that purrs like a kitten.
Any help identifying this plane would be greatly appreciated. Even if only some paperwork, about the plane, could be found that would give us more than we have now.
THANK YOU ALL!!

Looks like something a person just put together. I don't think it's a manufactured kit of any sort.

Don't know if this thread is still active, but that is a "TUF-1" Made by Windward R/C. I have one still in the original kit form (not "re-kitted"....hahaha...) and am looking to get the VHS assembly instructions converted to a watchable format. Video houses won't convert it b/c it's "Copyrighted".
reply if you are still curious and maybe I will go to the trouble of getting it converted. Regards, Rootboy

See my reply in the original post on this plane. It is a "TUF-1" made by Winward R/C. I've got one still in kit form with an assembly video (in VHS) Regards
