About this Plan

Leprechaun HLG. Simple all-sheet glider model.

The original 103 inch Dick Twomey Leprechaun (oz3252) was first published in Aeromodeller, March 1950. This here is a later plan for a simple all-sheet HLG version.

Direct submission to Outerzone.

Quote: "Hello again! My name is Rodrigo Burgo and I'm submitting another project that I drew and built - a HLG version of the Leprechaun glider. With its wings curved to form dihedral, this little one glides very well. Like the Bird of Time HLG (oz12664), it is an excellent model for flights on windless days."

User comments

Hello, what is the dihedral of the wing ? Thanks a lot for your responses. Regards.

wet the wood with hot water and bend the wing until it reaches a height of 2 cm at the tip.

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.
