Did we get something wrong with these details about this plan (especially the datafile)?
That happens sometimes. You can help us fix it.

I built one of these just a while ago - here is a picture for the plan listing [main pic].dfritzke - 22/05/2021
Hi Steve & Mary, I used the oz13043 plan to build a motor steered indoor model of the Me 163 [pics 003-005]. It is built from 3mm Depron and scaled up to 450mm span (116%). The flying weight is 22g with Silverlit components. Copies of the enlarged plan were used to provide the cockpit and crosses which were stuck on the model and helped with adding the panel lines.
Best regards!

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.
