I didn’t know there was a kit of the Flying Flapjack. Some friends of mine restored it, as it came from the Smithsonian in really bad shape. It’s at the Frontiers of Flight Museum in Dallas. Interestingly, where photos show the engines, there are only intake on their prototype. According to one of the Vought retirees whom I spoke to last week, the engine were inside the airframe and connected two the props in such a way that if one engine went out both props would still be powered.
