I stumbled onto this YouTube video and I thought I'd share it.

Nice. Looks very familiar. Lived it. Wonder if there is anything left of the WCMRS.

Wild box kite-like model at 8:17, hard to make out, but wonder what it was about.

@ReynoldsSlumber That's a Flying Jenny. Estes published the plans in the early 1960's. Plan can be found with a search here on the forum.

[edit] Or you can get a current kit that took it's inspiration from the Jenny : https://www.squirrel-works.com/glider.html
