About this Plan

Staudacher S-300. Sport scale aerobatic model for .40-.46 2-stroke, or geared 24 electric motor.

Quote: "A Sport Scale Aerobatic model for a .40-46 2-stroke, or a geared 25 electric motor

The full-size Staudacher is a fully acrobatic competition plane and follows the trend set by the European designs in the last decade. I learned about the existence of the Staudacher when I came across a Repla-Tech ad in one of the books showing the side view of it and was impressed with the shape, so I ordered a set of 3-views from them. After the 3-views arrived. I decided to build the model in two versions. One for a .46 2-stroke engine and the other one for the Astro 25 geared electric motor. Both are identical in size.

To make the strong fuselage, I decided to have a plug-in wing. To have easy access to the radio compartment, the top of the fuselage from fire wall to the back of the canopy is removable. Both models are good fliers and can do all acrobatic maneuvers with ease. The radio compartment is large enough to hold all the batteries and servos.

To build the model. I recommend you cut out as many parts as possible so the model can be built as a kit. The model is of straightforward construction using balsa, plywood. and spruce. It is easy to build, but is not a beginner's airplane. The outlines of the model are accurate as per 3-views. The wing has no dihedral, the top surface of the wing halves is straight. Only the natural taper of the wing at the bottom is giving it some dihedral.

The following text describe the building sequence: Tail Surfaces: All the surfaces are built from the 1/4 in hard balsa and in some areas 1/4 thick balsa sheet. After the tail surfaces are built, sand lightly and round the leadingand trailing edges..."

Datafile:

ScaleType:
  • NotFound | help

    This is a scale plan, but ScaleType is set as NotFound.

    This happens when we can't find a relevant Wikipedia page to link to. Usually because the type in question is uncommon.

    Corrections? Use the correction form to tell us the new ScaleType link we should be using. Thanks.

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.
