Hi Mary and Steve, Here are some pics [main pic, 003] of my Roust A Bout, designed by the late Dick Fors. It was mostly an easy build, but the heavily cambered wing needed care. Covering is good old domestic tissue and dope. Mine is powered by a Hi-Line Mini-6 brushed motor and a 3-cell NiCd battery of 110mAh. Although short-coupled, it is surprisingly stable and flies slowly. No timer or dethermaliser. The battery is part-charged according to how long you want to fly. Electric free-flight as it used to be done! 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.
