Sounds like you're after Kettering Bugs and the like Jim - Have a look at these threads - the second one has a pic of Clippers bug laden Zep. Drop him a PM he may have the info you seek.

No, I think James is right. Clipper did post about it. I just can't remember if he made one.

Wikipedia has this article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siemens_torpedo_glider
Here is another article http://warnepieces.blogspot.com/2011...one-style.html
You may find this article useful. German Unmanned Aerial Vehicles WW1.pdf
To find these all I did was carry out a Google search for "Siemens wire guided aerial torpedo".
