Pink Panther (oz9412)
About this Plan
Pink Panther. Plywood fuselage design.
Note this plan is for a fuselage only. This plan does not show a complete airframe. Also, note some scaling up is needed.
Quote: "Last month we discussed numerous time and money saving ways to build your next R/C aircraft. This month we are going to present one of the simplest, easiest, and quickest ways to build a fuselage; one fabricated from 1/32in plywood, with a bit of balsa tossed in just for old times sakes. This type of fuselage may be used on any size model, although all of the ones that I have built have been used on .60 powered aircraft. The same technique, however, may be used to construct a fuselage for a .10 GG model, for example. At the present time I am designing a Continental Class Racer with this type of fuselage and in the winter months plan to build a bipe using this same technique. As you can see, the applications are almost endless.
The prime of large plywood sheets for this method of construction is Sig Manufacturing Co. Purchase their 1/32in plywood in the 12 x 48 size. That is not a mistake, the thickness is 1/32, not 1/16 or 3/32. The 1/32in is very strong and yet light in weight. You will also need material for doublers..."
Fuselage only "how-to" article. This fuselage design used in several subsequent RCM models, such as Star-Trek (oz9413) RCM#571.

Corrections?
Did we get something wrong with these details about this plan (especially the datafile)?
That happens sometimes. You can help us fix it.

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.
