ScaleType: This (oz4301) 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/Short_Stirling
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.

i thought i saw an outerzone plan for a multi- motor system w\for rubber powered kits, that was employed in astral and harold towner designed air planes but i cannot remember the name of the plan, it was not an airplane it self, just the motor system. any help is appreciated. thankswilliam mcandrew - 10/12/2022
Probably not the system you are thinking of but plans 6882 and 11592 for the Boeing 247 such have setups.

Greetings, Another multi-motor system suggestion for you. de Haviland Mosquito (OZ1298). It uses a single motor, but a belt drive and pulleys instead of connecting rods.
Let’s be careful out there.

I remember probably I published it somewhere, it was a sketch of Rupert C Moore patented driving system based on triangular hooks engaged one to each others for multiengined rubber powered. Could it be? Pit

Ah, that was the Moore Drive system. See notes and pic at: https://outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.asp?ID=9352

The plan that has connecting rods and pulley that immediately comes to mind is the Handley Page Halifax by W Jones that was in the Aeromodeller X list for many years

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.
