It had a wooden frame and was a scaled up 'Dennyplane'. I don't think anyone actually designed it, other than to build a larger version of the Dennyplane.

Fred may have worked for "The cartier love mens bracelet copy Industries" for a period of time but he started working at the Righter Mfg. Co. July 25, 1938 and worked there until Jan. 25, 1941. Fred Hardy was Dad's 10th employee and Ken Case the 13th; starting work there ten months after Fred. Reg is correct about the radio control problems. That is why Ken was sent over to the Righter Company."Reg Denny Jr. notes: ."I believe it's design was the result of the efforts of several model builders at "The Industries". Paul and dad possibly contributed to this. Whatever, it never really flew. Primarily I believe, due to the under developed, confusing radio control system. This is all from my childhood memory and could be incorrect."Ed: It did indeed fly once but the radio signal to the plane's controls failed, the plane went out of control and crashed. This combination flew reliably and the Army offered a contract to build 50 machines.]RP 1 Twin, detail, Paul Whittier Estate, 1935Photo: Righter Family Archives Click Image to EnlargePaul Whittier, RP 1, Paul Whittier Estate, 1935Photo: Righter Family Archives Click Image to EnlargeDownload a 1500 pixel imagePhoto: Righter Family Archives Click Image to EnlargeReginald Denny, Paul Whittier Estate, 1935Photo: Righter Family Archives Click Image to EnlargeDownload a 1500 pixel imageAirship Designed to be Shot DownLos Angeles Times Jan. 28, 1938 Click Image to EnlargeDownload a 750 pixel imageRP 1.
