Centaur (oz15698)
About this Plan
Centaur. Control line stunt model. Wingspan 50 in, .29 to .35 engines.
Quote: "The Centaur was a Ken Taylor design, from 1956. It was kitted by Central Aircraft of Melbourne, also later by Tony Cincotta and Saturn Hobbies. The Centaur was a very popular stunt model in the late 1950s. Note the plan shows optional tricycle undercarriage layout.
Ken Taylor has been a prolific designer and builder of stunt models, a successful aerobatics competitor and three times winner at Australian Nationals. See: control-line.org.au/content/dkd/clmodel...
The Centaur sold for 79/6 (Australian) in this late 1963 Central catalog, see: fullcircleflyers.blogspot.com/p/from-crypt...

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.
