User comments

The photo doesn't match the plan. Look at the wing tips, the shape of the tail surfaces, and the length of the nose.

Also the lack of dihedral on the tail plane?
Would a flat tail plane affect the stability or performance because of the lack of dihedral

P.S. I would like to make a 200% version which is why I ask about the tailplane
T Hughes - 17/04/2021
Does anyone have an Idea for the starting point for the static balance point ( centre of gravity)?
T Hughes - 18/04/2021
If I had to guess, I would assume that the dihedral on the tailplane is to reduce the possibility of it snagging the grass upon landing and breaking rather than aerodynamics. I don't think that you would notice any flying degradation with a flat tailplane.

I agree, this is certainly not the right model pic. Does anyone out there have a good pic of the Monika?

Hallo, in the issue of Flug -und Modelltechnik 6/1959 are no pictures of Monika. A few lines of building instrucktions give not any terms of material or CG.
Greetings from Germany

Notes

* Credit field

The Credit field in the Outerzone database is designed to recognise and credit the hard work done in scanning and digitally cleaning these vintage and old timer model aircraft plans to get them into a usable format. Currently, it is also used to credit people simply for uploading the plan to a forum on the internet. Which is not quite the same thing. This will change soon. Probably.

Scaling

This model plan (like all plans on Outerzone) is supposedly scaled correctly and supposedly will print out nicely at the right size. But that doesn't always happen. If you are about to start building a model plane using this free plan, you are strongly advised to check the scaling very, very carefully before cutting any balsa wood.
