The goal was to have a plane that could be stored in a large garage as opposed to a hangar and that it would be relatively easy to fly.
Nemeth worked with students from Miami University in 1934 to help him build the plane's wings.
Nemeth’s success gave others ideas and other experimental aircraft with circular wings were built later like the Sack AS-6, the Vought XF5U and the Avrocar.
Steven P. Nemeth was a flight instructor at the McCook Field near Dayton, Ohio, which closed in 1927.
