Vandiver (oz1557)
About this Plan
Frog Vandiver. Control line stunt model. Designed for the Frog 100 or 160 Red Glow motors.
Quote: "The Famous Vandiver Stunt Contol Liner. The Frog Vandiver is definitely the best of Britain's stunt control liners. Simple to construct and strong enough to take many a crash while you are learning, the Vandiver is a model which has gained its world-wide popularity on sheer performance - it does everything in the book and then flies some more! In other word, for really smooth stunting, fly a Vandiver."

This is actually the plan for the Mk. 1 Vandiver, dated 1948 or possibly early 1949. The picture, however, is the Mk. 2 of 1954.Nameless - 31/03/2014
Agreed. Have changed this to a new pic now, from 1949.

Your comments on Vandiver are incorrect. Plan and photo are definitely 1948 Mark 1 Vandiver. I had one with a Frog 100 motor. Cheers.

Probably one of the best small fully aerobatic vintage stunters. With a PAW 80 motor will surprise even the most critical flyer. On 45 foot light steel lines it's unbeatable in its class.

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.
