About this Plan

Clerget. Aero engine drawings.

CAD drawings by Brian Dolby (UK).

From http://modelenginenews.org/ed.2008.03.html

Quote: "Some months back, Model Engine News was approached by Mr Brian Dolby (UK), asking if any readers might be interested in drawings he was preparing of the WWI Clerget rotary. Way back in July 2003 I reviewed a nice little reprint volume from Camden (UK) which contained drawings of all the parts in the engine, suitable I thought for scanning, scaling, and CAD tracing. This is almost what Brian has done. He began by photo enlarging the General Arrangement, then measuring and scaling each part so it could be re-drawn under AutoCAD. The GA was rebuilt placing each part on a separate layer, allowing them to be later extracted for orthographic projection and dimensioning.

Brian has most generously made his hard work available under a Creative Commons Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike 3.0 License, meaning you can download them from here and pass them around provided you do not charge anything for them and credit Brian with the work. Note these are not model engine plans! They depict the full size engine and omit things like thread callouts, material specifications, etc. But a talented and determined model engineer armed with these and the Camden book could build a running model Clerget..."

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.
