About this Plan

Kinner (No 182). Free flight scale model for rubber power. Wingspan 24 in.

Planfile includes build instructions.

Quote: "Directions for building your flying model: Good flying models depend on (1) careful construction of the various parts, (2) accurate alignment of the model, (3) correct balance and (4) proper adjustment of the wing and tail surfaces. Good-looking models cannot be had unless printed parts on the sheet balsa are cut out accurately or unless you follow carefully the outline of the drawing when assembling the various parts. This is especially true of the fuselage which will appear lopsided if you are careless. Your airplane will not fly well unless great care is used on the assembly..."

    ScaleType: This (oz16139) is a scale plan. Where possible we link scale plans to Wikipedia, using a text string called ScaleType.

    If we got this right, you now have a couple of direct links (above) to 1. see the Wikipedia page, and 2. search Oz for more plans of this type. If we didn't, then see below.

    Notes:
    ScaleType is formed from the last part of the Wikipedia page address, which here is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinner_Sportster
    Wikipedia page addresses may well change over time.
    For more obscure types, there currently will be no Wiki page found. We tag these cases as ScaleType = NotFound. These will change over time.
    Corrections? Use the correction form to tell us the new/better ScaleType link we should be using. Thanks.

User comments

I find it interesting that these early models almost always build the stabilizers in two separate pieces then attach them to support points on the fuselage. I wonder when the idea of one piece slid into a slot made its first appearance.

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.
