Quote: "Novice. First off, there’s a build thread on the Novice at RC Groups: https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?3025641
(Please note that I’m no longer on RC Groups, so I can’t answer any questions via that site).
I gave the Novice her name for several reasons. First, as beginner’s second (or third) model (or an experienced flier’s sport ship). Second, and more appropriate, because I’m a novice to building with foam, so I knew it was going to be an interesting 'learning experience'.
The result? I learned a lot about foam construction, and we had a lot of fun flying the Novice!
The Novice was constructed with pink house insulation foam (Owen Corning) and covered with paper and a 50/50 mix of Titebond II glue and water (which I call 'Glue Glop'). Please check the included article on covering with paper and glue for details..."

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.
