About this Plan

Beaver. Radio control sport scale model. Wingspan 45 in, for .049 to .15 engine.

Discontinued kit from SIG.

Note this plan used the SIG (straight) molded foam wing. For a plan showing how to construct a replacement wing in balsa see: Sig Foam Wing Straight (oz16514) thanks to MarkWinstanley.

Direct submisson to Outerzone.

Planfile includes full build instructions.

Quote: "Place the fuselage sides over the plan, and using a ball point pen draw the thrust line on the sheet sides, making a right and left. Use these lines to determine the correct angle of incidence when attaching the wing and stabilizer.

Place the 3/32 fuselage sides on a flat building surface that will take pins. Insulation board makes an excellent building board and can be purchased at most lumber yards. Using Sig Bond glue the 1/4 triangles to the top and bottom edge of the fuse sides, also along the wing saddle piece..."

    ScaleType: This (oz16522) 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/De_Havilland_Canada_DHC-2_Beaver
    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.

Hi, Molded is the correct American spelling of the word just look at the sig adverts to see it in use.

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.
