About this Plan

Ladybird. Keil Kraft kit for FF IC. Plan includes all printwood, plus extra drawings showing RC conversion.

Update 25/02/2015: Replaced this plan with version that fixes rib size issue, thanks to aeromeddeler.

Quote: "...was contacted by someone on RC groups about the Ladybird plan as he was building it and found the wing ribs were short by a long way. Have looked at the plan and he was right, it was only the wing ribs and outline former's that were too small the fuselage former's were fine? Not sure how this happened. Have resized the wing ribs etc and revised the plan... Cheers"

Update 23/5/2024: Have replaced this plan with a corrected version (again). This fixes an error in the printwood scan: printwood 3 of 5 (with the instrument panel) was oversized.

Have also tidied up a bit. Have now split the plan and printwood into 2 separate files. Cleaned the plan a little. Also removed unhelpful 'fixed' text from the filenames.

I built a Ladybird from a KK kit back in the mid 50's. The plan showed a pendulum rudder and I installed that. Since then I haven't seen a Ladybird plan with the pendulum rudder. Do you know about the Pendulum rudder for this model?

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.
