Wanted plans

  1. Home
  2. Wanted plans

 

A lot of people ask us to help find an old plan. Usually it's a plan for a model they built and flew themselves, back in the day. Or maybe a model they always wanted to build, but never got around to. There are thousands of plans on Outerzone, but many are still missing. These are requests for plans we don't have.

This 'Wanted' section is here so that you, the reader, can help us out. Below is the list of plans wanted, by who, and why. If you can help locate a good quality scan of these plans (at say 300 dpi, or more) then please contact us.

Got a request for yourself? Then see the bottom of this page for how to add a request to this page.

 

Megow 30 in Rubber powered FF Rearwin Speedster
Looking for this plan so I can build this model. I do have an original kit but the plan is on that old brown super brittle paper and has disintegrated in a thousand pieces. My old late friend Rudy from Cleveland built this model and it was a super flyer. Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

Ole Tiger by NickZiroli
Hi from Italy. I'm looking for the plans for Ziroli's Ole Tiger. Some time ago they were for sale on some websites, but today I can't find them anywhere. There is no way to buy them. Thanks.

Zoomer by Leon Shulman
Have just realised we have no 'original' plan of the Zoomer (circa 1946?) on here. The only version we have at the moment is a much later version in French for RC, see Zoomer (oz1636). I expect there were a few different Zoomer plans either kitted or published in mags, would be nice to have a FF one.

Clipper MkII plan from P&W
At the last Willamette Modelers Club contest I won a clipper MKII P&W partial kit, unfortunately there was no plans. I see that AMA plan service has MKII Plans but would like to find the plans that came with the P&W kit, if possible. There are often differences in plans! Thanks in advance.

Lively Lady F1A glider
I'm surprised that Elton Drew's Lively Lady F1A glider plan isn't on Outerzone. It won the 1969 World Championships and was published in the May 1970 Aeromodeller. A great model with a long contest pedigree. Would like to see this one added.

CAP 232 from Lanier, 81 in
Today I am asking for the CAP 232 LANIER 81" plans. I was very disappointed to learn that the termites have eaten everything apart from ABS, canopy and aluminum landing gear. Even the plans, foam wings and box were discarded. If someone could help me with the plans I could still build this once kit. Thanks,

de Havilland DH-75 Hawk Moth
This is the Bill Dennis plan featured in Aeromodeller, December 1986. I built this model many years ago as a 4-channel IC RC model. It was an excellent flyer and an award winner. I am unable to find the plans, and I want to build another as a 4-channel electric model. I hope someone has the plans... Thanks ever so much, and for all that you do.

Fury Delta (Swiss Delta)
I'm looking for a blueprint of the 'Fury Delta'. It's a pusher delta for .49 engine, with wingspan 1560mm. The designer was E Szafranska from Switzerland. The design is certainly 50 years old. In Germany it is called the 'Swiss Delta'. I would like to fly it with an EDF engine. Best regards,

Fairey Fantome biplane
I have a request.. which if filled might make many of your biplane aficionados quite pleased. Recently I've seen references to the short-lived Fairey Fantome biplane. And everyone it seems, who knew of the plane (or the model) was duly impressed with the lines and its qualifications! I have heard that there was a magazine article, I've heard that some references had misspellings. I've heard it was also called the Feorce. And too much of that indicates "IT'S MISSING!" Your 13" and 24" WS versions would leave a lot of detail to the imagination.. so the question becomes.. are there plans out there, for a larger R/C-able one? I'm thinking a 34.5" edit would make for a cool 1/12th scale version. Please let me know of any info links, or post this in the "Seeking Fame and Fantome Fortune" section of Oz! MANY Thanks!

Forgotten name: Jedelsky-wing FF model
Hello, I am trying to find the plan for a small, all-sheet balsa free-flight IC with a polyhedral, elliptical, Jedelsky wing with an under-slung elliptical tailplane. The main problem is that I cannot remember what it was called; all I can remember (apart from the above) is that the wingspan was either 22" (most likely) or 28" and it was for an .020cu in engine (Pee Wee or TD 020). Why am I searching for this plan? The one I built (Pee Wee powered) would climb like a contest FF on a squirt of fuel, gradually flying tighter and tighter circles until the fuel ran out; then it would float down slowly ready to fuel and fly again. What I hadn't realised was that it wasn't running out of fuel when the engine stopped, it was the centrifugal force of the tight circling that forced the fuel away from the pick-up tube in the Pee Wee tank; so, on the final flight (it disappeared OOS), the engine carried on running and this little marvel disappeared downwind, never to be seen again. 😭

Morane Saulnier 35 EP2 by Bob Wright
I am looking for a Bob Wright plan from a RCME issue which despite my searching I can't find. Morane Saulnier 35 EP2. Great plan and was a great flyer, must have been early 2000s. Do you know of it? It was a free plan from RCME. Cheers

Dirigible
More years ago than I care to remember, Model Airplane News (I think. Might have been Flying Models) had plans for a dirigible. It was about 1 foot in cross section, maybe a couple of feet long and powered by an 0.010 or 0.020 engine. I remember the body was built of perhaps 1/16" x 1/16" stringers and covered with silk span. It was a free flight model. Have you or any of the contributors come by such plans? I built a couple as a teenager and now I would like to construct another. Thank you for keeping these old models alive.

Quest Imp 18" control line trainer
Hi, I'm after a diagram for the Quest Imp 18" control line trainer from the seventies ... my first CL model aircraft. From memory there wasn't a plan; just an assembly diagram, but it would be good to recreate one ... I still have the Cox 049 I used! Perhaps you could put feelers out via Outerzone?

Quiet Advancer, glider by PriceRite Engineering
Hi Folks, there once was an Australian kit manufacturer called PriceRite Engineering. They had a magnificent glider called "Quiet Advancer", a 2 meter all balsa machine that was an absolute pleasure to fly. The aircraft was in many respects similar to the Gentle Lady/SIG Riser, but had a few subtle improvements. I'm keen to see if anyone out there still has plans to the glider.

ElectriCub II from Great Planes
Thanks for all that you do with Outerzone. It is a joy that gets me energized every time I look at your website. You have the Great Planes ElectriCub (oz12691), by Don Anderson. As you mentioned, it is the first generation of the model without ailerons or the bolt-down wing. I have been searching the web and reaching out for either a kit of the 'ElectriCub II', or a set of plans. However, I have been unsuccessful. I have the partially completed fuselage of the ElectriCub II that I started building many years ago, but I do not have the plans to complete the rest of the airplane. There are several major differences between the original and the ElectricCub II in both the fuselage and wing. Keep up the great work.

Swallow by Ken Banks
Hope you are doing well. My question is, how can I find the plan of the second model which is introduced in the photo back ground as "Swallow" from Ken Banks - see pic 003 on page at https://outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.asp?ID=13867 - it seems very magnificent and I would appreciate it should you help me find it as I love to construct it. With my best regards,

Grumman F3F Gulfhawk RC kit from OK Pilot
Bought this kit off eBay, however, the plans are missing. This makes it totally impossible to build without plans as the fuselage is very complex. Could there be someone out there with the plans that came with the kit. Would appreciate any help. Thanks much.

Spitfire and Polikarpov I 16 by Laurant Buissyne
Hi Outerzone team. I have another wish regarding plans not available: there exists or existed a prolific plan designer, Laurant Buissyne, who contributed a lot of beautiful plans, mostly included in some French rc modelling magazines - most of them sadly disappeared over the years. I am looking for two plans especially: a simplified sport scale Spitfire displayed as an included plan in the French magazine "Looping" No 65, November 2000. And a Polikarpov I 16 (Rata) displayed as an included plan in the French magazine "RC Pilot" No 13, November 2004. Both warbirds have a wingspan of approx. 1,40m. Regards

Hello, I'm looking for the plan and building instructions for the Comet from Graupner. Wingspan 136 cm. Date around 1998. This is a Twin electric ducted fan model, no longer available - I remember seeing one flying in Germany, I was 16 at the time, couldn't afford but wanted one badly.

Northrop T-38 Talon from Bob Vliet
Many years ago there was a short kit and plans available for a Northrop T-38 Talon. I believe it sported roughly a 47" w/s with a fuse length of about 7ft. I thought the designer was Bob Vliet (I don't believe it was Bob Violett). I've searched the net far & wide but cannot find any plans for this model or one similar. Anybody have a set?

Canadair CL-215 by Walt Mooney
Dear Mary & Steve, Walt Mooney was a prolific designer of published flying scale models. Most appear to have been drawn up by himself and subsequently published over an extended period. One plan that I have been unable to locate is his Canadair CL-215 rubber-powered flying boat. The only mention that I have been able to find is from Walt's own column on page 36 and continuing on page 76 of the February 1971 issue of American Aircraft Modeler. I'm guessing from the photo that the model is around 18" to 24" wingspan. Thanks,

CL plans from Kimura, Japan
Looking for controline model plans from the very nice Japanese model plan company called KIMURA KMC. These planes were and are very popular in Japan, and will be a very nice to obtains one of these plans (mainly the warbirds) that were very good fliers and also lively performers on just .15 to .20 engine class; The planes are compact, small and easy to build and transport, good looking and economic to operate in the .15 to .20 engines powered engines. I'm sending a sample of the Kimura catalog that I found some time ago in the web. Thanks very much by your effort and dedication on our Outerzone UK Website. Sincerly,

Bridi Reprise
Very rare and possibly just unavailable. I have one small poor photo of the plan. Bridi ref 683. Wingspan 65-1/2 in. For 10 cc engines. Inked by Monty Lawler. There is a quote saying someone ...opened a new Bridi r/c kit, and the Reprise plans were in the kit, along with other ripped up old old Bridi plans, as packing materials. I've never heard of the Reprise actually being kitted by Bridi, or seen any photos of a completed model. Best wishes & please be safe.

Harold Towner's Short Singapore flying boat
I am searching for a complete set of plans for Harold Towner's Short Singapore flying boat. An article appeared in Radio Control Models and Electronic in June 1976. It is a real beauty with four engines: two tractors and two pushers. I have two drawings showing partial schematics for the centre section, but it is nowhere near enough to build from. I need a full set of the drawings. I see you have most, if not all, Harold Towner?s other published plans and this one would happily complete the set. If someone has a set drawing, I am happy to arrange for scanning of anyone?s precious originals.

Guillows F-86 Sabre
Looking for the Guillows stick-and-tissue F-86 Sabre released in the 1950s (companion piece to the Guillows MiG-15 which is on your site already). Long story but to make it short: my Dad flew in the Korean War, and upon his return home, he started building models (his boyhood hobby) as a kind of therapy (although he would never call it that). He and I built a LOT of stick-and-tissue models when I was a kid, but he always wished he could find the first one he built after Korea- the stick-and-tissue Guillows F-86...

US electric kit 16"
Please find me a plan of a US electric kit: 16" span cabin style, sheet slabsided, wire undercart, parallel chord wings, shown on box with black coloured fuselage, small dihedral and meant to be flown indoors. The cabin is like a celluloid sheeted Korda Wakefield, swept back style. I saw it originally in a US magazine as a kit. There was one kit so cute in cardboard box kit box for sale on our 'ebay' about 8-12yrs ago for 80 pounds but I was too slow. I've tried 3 times to build it from memory but never got it right and always overweight. Thanks.

Beck-Mahoney Sorceress biplane
Many years ago, I saw a beautiful peanut scale model of a Sorceress racing biplane on the Shonai Peanut Builder's web site. I checked this week and the photo is still on their web site. The model is a peanut scale 13" wingspan Beck-Mahoney Sorceress biplane. All the information appears to be in the language of the model designer, Japanese. A language in which I wish I could communicate, but I cannot. Further, I have no idea where to look for help. The designer may not even know there would be interest in the plans. Is there any chance you have, or can get a copy of that plan?

Tamecat
I'm looking for the plan of the model Tamecat, Paracid. It is a F-14, a semimaqueta and I can not find it anywhere. The model is from JEFF TROY'S or World model. It's a trainer to 40 engine, wingspan 1,76 mts, fuselage 1, 27 mts. I really like this model because it is a trainer in the form of an F-14 Tomcat and besides that it is a high wing and therefore very good rope, it was very difficult to see it fly to a friend.

Pe-Pe by the Fairy Aviation Co.
I still have plane of a model I flew 20 years ago and the guy at the time said it was a old design but I have never found another model or name of this ( Pe-Pe ) by "the Fairy Aviation C.O." I'm not sure if it is genuine and can't remember the details he told me, maybe French? I tried it first with electric back in the 90s but was too heavy then two channel OS .15. Does anyone know of the model?

Fun Scale Cobra by Mark Smith
I have been searching for a set of the construction drawings, parts drawing and wing plan for the Fun Scale Cobra by Mark Smith. It was kitted by either Jemco or Dynaflite. After I learned to fly, it was my first sort of scale airplane, powered by a Super-Tiger .23 and had plenty of power. It had excellent flight characteristics and I had more than 300 flights on it before it was necessary to retire it. I have not been able to fly for a few years but I have built 2 Goldberg trainers to start with and would like to move up to another Cobra. Please help.

M.E.N. Twin Trainer
I have been in the hobby of model airplanes for 74 years. Now at age 84 I still continue to enjoy the hobby. I have flown everything from u-control to free flight to radio control, electric and gas. How can we forget rubber power. Most of my models are scratch built. At times I cannot determine if I enjoy building more than flying or flying more than building. I'm in good health and I contribute this to some degree to the flying field and work bench. I have never built or flown a twin power model and recently I have a want to do so. An RC Groups member told me of the "The M.E.N. Twin Trainer", an ideal balsa model for the first time twin powered builder and pilot. I know very little of this model other than it is a balsa kit, approximately 2 meter wing span, twin powered electric of gas.

1/4 Scale Piper Cub Kit, by OK Models Pilot
Would anyone there have access to the 1/4 Scale Piper Cub Kit made by OK Models Pilot? I have the kit but no plan. It's an old kit from the late '80s I think. The kit is intact. Would welcome some help on a lead to get this plan.

World Engines, Hawk 460
I am looking for the plan from World Engines for their Hawk 460. I think it has a 52 inch wingspan and was made in the early 1970s. It is an interesting foam /Balsa hybrid. I think it was a very advanced fabrication for the time.

Jemco FW190 D9, 50"
Hi Outerzone, I would dearly like to obtain a copy of the Jemco FW190 D9, 50" wingspan plan. The model has long since gone out of production, and whilst the Mustang is quite common, the Focke Wulf 190 is almost impossible to buy.

Cruisaire by Woody Woodward
I would REALLY, REALLY like to find a set of plans for Woody Woodward's 10 powered Cruisaire. Woody was one of the two people that taught me to fly RC. The other was Tony N. from the T & A Hobby Lobby in Burbank, CA. Tony taught me on a Royal Colt, and Woody taught me on his Cruisaire. Later he gave it to me. That was about 1979.

Piper Cub 1/4 scale from Premier Balsa Products (not Carl Goldberg Models)
Hello, I was recently given a Carl Goldberg Piper Cub kit in 1/4 scale with a 106in wingspan. I'm new to the hobby, so my knowledge base is pretty small. Unfortunately, though the kit was never assembled and seems to be complete, it is missing the full scale plans. The receipts that came with the kit (for ancillary items) are dated 1992 and 1993, so presumably the kit was manufactured and sold around or before that time. I've already emailed Great Planes/HobbyCo, who seem to have bought Carl Goldberg Models out sometime around 2007, and have searched the internet pretty thoroughly without finding a scrap of information about the kit, so presumably it's fairly rare. I'd hate to let the kit go to waste, but I am certainly not skilled enough to try to build it without the plans. Attached is an image of the box, I can attach more images if it's helpful. Thank you, PS Hello, Thank you for posting my wanted post. Unfortunately last night I realized that the kit was actually produced by Premier Balsa Products. Their logo on the box was mostly missing, and at some point someone had put the instructions for the Carl Goldberg smaller scale kit in the box. I'm still searching for the Premier Balsa Products plan though. Thank you.

Top-Flite Sierra .40 Trainer
Probably it's not a best seller and may be not a good trainer but I like the appearance of Top-Flite Sierra .40 Trainer. The kit was discontinued for over 10 maybe 20 years, and according to the information I had received from the recent owner of the Top-Flite they also don't have a copy of the plan to sell. So may I request your kind assistance to find this plan from an old modeller? Thanks in advance.

I would love to find a set of plans for the Veron Super Robot Trainer. It's somewhat hard to find - I only managed to find an article of this model in an old RCM&E magazine. It's a very nice looking trainer which had the lines as a real airplane should look, not the usual box shape trainer that we know today. Is there a chance to get a good set of plans for this particular model?

Aircobra, Maxey Hester (Sterling kit)
I am looking for a set of Aircobra Plans for the Sterling kit. This is the Maxey Hester full sized version. I have hunted for this kit for a while as I like to build stuff that I couldn't afford when I was a kid. Found one and bought it, got it home only to find that it was complete, but no plans. Can't seem to find them anywhere on the web. This is a fairly common kit, thousands were sold, so someone must have a set off in the corner that I can either buy or copy. I know that they are probably huge. Would love the help.

Delta Wing Jet, 18" wing span
Hi, I wonder if you can help me. I have been looking for ages for a plan or details about a Delta Wing Plane I built in the 60s. I cannot for the life of me remember whether I built it from a kit or just a plan ( I'm sure it was a kit ). It was a solid balsa construction Delta Wing Jet type of about 18'' wing span. It was launched using several strands of rubber which were anchored in the ground, & the plane was hooked onto the other end & pulled back some distance before releasing. It had an elevator which was held in an up position by an elastic band, but due to the speed of the launch flattened out to some extent then went to maximum as the plane reached the peak of it's launch, ( more strands or rubber for launching obviously gave more speed & height ! ) this then gave it a nice flat glide. Any help would be appreciated.

Veco Smoothie by Bob Palmer
I'm looking for the plans to a Veco Smoothie, a Bob Palmer model, that was produced back in the mid 1960s. The Veco kit was a modification to Bob's original design, from Air Trails. Some say the original with a bit thicker wing flew better, others just like the lines of the Veco kit. The model had an upright engine, but the Veco plans showed two versions for an inverted engine. I was in the Army back then, and several of us had an interest in CL flying. Our Chief Master Sergeant built a Veco Smoothie that he flew very well. When I got out of the Army, the first kit I purchased was the Veco Smoothie, probably for $7.95. Just a touch of nose weight and it flew like a dream with a Fox 35.

I'm hoping to make many of these available through Outerzone where not infringing on anyone selling them. Any help to find these two plans would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Spitfire 24/Seafire 47 from Micro Mold
Hi Steve, I was pointed to outerzone.co.uk by a fellow modelling connoisseur and TBH it's been a pleasure to browse old plans, which I do regularly. Thanks for taking the time and effort to run the site. Sometime in the early 1980s I bought a 44" span Micro Mold 1/10 scale Spitfire 24/Seafire 47 kit which I planned to build as a Seafire 47, even though I had only just started flying a DB Mascot trainer and was nowhere near skilled enough to fly anything trickier. I never got round to building the kit, which I regret, and I think it was eventually lost in a house move. I did get to fly a slope-soaring MM Spitfire 24 a couple of years ago - built by somebody else - and it was really quite nice... I now have a bucket list which includes a variety of things, many of them concerned with doing things that I planned to do years ago; I'd like to have a go at any of the old Micro-Mold 1/10th scale "Famous Warbird" series, especially the Spitfire 24/Seafire 47 but a FW190D or P-51B would be equally welcome, so I'd be most grateful if you could add those to your wanted list. rgds,

Sweet Sixteen by Richard Miller
I'm looking for a hand launch glider from the early sixties named "Sweet Sixteen" by Richard Miller. Richard is dead now and so there is no way to contact him. I built a bunch of these gliders about the time they were published and lost all of them to the great thermal god Hung. I'm guessing it was published in American Modeler because there is another Richard Miller plan on this site published in the magazine dated 1963. The Sweet Sixteen was probably earlier than that, maybe 61 or 62, because we moved in 63 and all my old magazines disappeared. I'd sure like to build some more if someone has the plans. Thanks.

Hello Steve, Many thanks indeed for the superb work you have put into creating this site. I am looking for a clearer copy of the Model Shop Hawker Demon plan and parts. A copy of the plan is already here on OZ, but several line details don't quite meet up properly - possible from having been scanned from a plan that had been stored folded. I wonder if someone has a better copy? Best regards,

Robbe Eos (?)
Hello Steve, I have very fond memories of my first free flight glider kit (in the 70s). I believe it was from Robbe and was called 'Eos', 'Eol' or something like that. The lower surface of the wing was a balsa sheet on which the ribs were glued. This made it rather robust, without the risk of the fabric being punched by grass/branches. The two wings halves were hinged in the middle and could be folded for transport. The rear fuselage was a truss structure. I estimate the span was around 80cm (30in). I would appreciate if somebody could come up with the plan. I would love to build one again with my nephew. Best regards,

VECO Taylor Cub
Steve, There is a vendor up on eBay selling copies of the plans for something like $24 US ($18 + s/h), but it still needs to be 'preserved' for everyone. I bought a kit back in the early '70s (probably had been sitting on the store shelf a long time already) and built it as best as my unskilled fingers could manage. Now that my skills are better but my fingers don't cooperate anymore, I'd like to try building it again. I think it had a 35in wing, and design-wise it is very similar to plan #193 (32in, Roger Hammer, 1940, Air Trails). Love the site, visit it every day. Building the Shereshaw 'Champion' right now, with the build log on RCGROUPS.

I’m trying to locate a drawing for the Redwing Jr. (span 30”) which I had built from a kit over 50 years ago. I have contacted members of the Darwin family still living in Ann Arbor, Michigan, they no longer have much information left from the original company founded by Roy F. Darwin in the ‘40s. Roy passed on in the ‘80s. They did send me several photos of the Darwing Wing models still hanging at their home, but nothing on the Redwing Jr. Interesting the Darwin company offered almost ready to fly models also...

Jetco Dragonfly
Hi Steve, First, thanks for all the effort you put into OZ. I've been in model airplanes from the mid 1950's and have never seen such a collection in one place. I am looking for plans or outline of parts for a Jetco Dragonfly. It is a profile, all sheet balsa biplane about 24in span, and could be built either control line or Free Flight. It had an 'open cockpit' on the fuselage. If I remember correctly, the plans in my brother's kit from the 1960's just had isometric assembly drawings, not a top/side view, which is why I'm also looking for the parts outlines. There were only about 10 wood pieces, it was a low count. Back in the day we had one with an .02 Infant engine which fit it perfectly. Sort of an early Ebeneezer, in kit form. Thanks for any help,

Fun Scale Cobra or Fun Scale Mustang plan (or both)
They were both Mark's Models or Dynaflite. Although they are not truly scale, They are two of the best flying, stable and forgiving airplanes I have ever flown. I built both circa 1978 or so and flew each on Super Tiger .23’s. The Super Tiger .23 was my favorite engine and would run forever on a 4 ounce tank. I did the cobra as a Russian Aircobra, White with all red trim & stars and the mustang in olive drab and grey with invasion stripes. I had over 200 flights on each when I moved and had to sell them. Now that I am retired and building again I would really like to build and fly them again. I also would really like to find a Woody Woodward .10 Cruisaire. That was the plane I really learned to fly on and Woody did most of the teaching along with Tony Nacaratti (spelling?) from the T & A Hobby Lobby in Burbank, CA. I hope someone will be able to help me as these are really my favorite planes. Thanks,

Mini Stuntman by Bowman Models
Hi, I'm trying to find the plan for a Bowman Models 'Mini Stuntman' or 'Mini Stuntsman'. I can't find any information on it anywhere on the net. It was a simple low wing sport plane, approx 45in span, foam wings, box fuselage, bubble canopy, for 20 size engines. Mid 1980s. This was my first low wing aileron model, I remember coming home from school on a Friday afternoon and opening the kit, then building pretty much non-stop and flying it on Sunday afternoon. Flew it for years, outlasted many engines, then I stacked it trying to show off to a very unimpressed girlfriend!

Hi Steve: Here's my list of wanted plans. Humbrol Arrow, Humbrol Lance, Humbrol Sharky... These were 23" wingspan, 3" chord all-sheet CO2 kit models. The contents had a good 3-view that can be enlarged. Not sure if the Sharky was released but was displayed at a Toy Fair in 1976. Date is 1976/ 1977. Also the Humbrol Bronco. This was a foam ARTF CO2 model, wingspan about 18". It flew well. So, anyone who can generate a 3-view so I can build an all-sheet balsa replica. Date is 1978. Cheers,

Butterfly from Ace RC
As a fan of the 1/2a size planes, I am always looking for the fun little oddballs. Ace RC sold some kits early on (natch) and I'd love to find one of their early offerings called the "Butterfly". It was a 36" span V-tail racer design, and I think it was actually made by EKTronics (So probably a Ted Strader design) They also made the "Concord" and the "Freedom" 7 for small RC setups.

Airco Aero Lark, Aero Star, and AeroDynamic
Hi ...I built all 3 of these back in the 1960's during a summer visit to my uncle who was at Pearl Harbor as a pilot during the attack. He worked for the Air Force and was at the Wright Patterson Airforce Base in Ohio until he was transferred to Edwards in California.. The last time I visited him in California before he died of cancer we built the exact same 3 kits which he has stashed in his collection of model items. He worked on the airfoils on every X plane from WW2 thru the YF22 and 23 before he passed away. I would like to locate the plans for these so I can build them again with modern equipment in memory of him. He flew P40's, P51B's, various cargo transports and Dehavilland Mosquitos. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

Jasco Tutor glider
Hi Steve, I am looking for a copy of the Jasco Tutor glider, manufactured by the 'Junior Aircraft Supply Co' based in Southport in the 1960s. In a fit of nostalgia I decided that I would like to build another one of these, it was the first model I ever saw catch a thermal, indeed it broke the thread I was towing it up with! Unfortunately it was the one and only time it ever caught one. The model rose up for what seemed like ages before being spat out and circling off into the distance, we ran after it for about 3/4 of a mile across the Cheshire fields and were resigned to a long search at best. The surprise that awaited us on our rather despondent return was our slightly grumpy next door neighbour holding my model and asking if it was mine. It had apparently woken him from a pleasant snooze in his deckchair when it hit the side of his garage! Happy days. this little aircraft taught me an awful lot about trimming,towing, covering, I have no idea who designed it but they did a good job IMO. Great site, keep up the good work. Regards,

Sterling Monocoupe kit FD-4 64in span RC model
This is another of those hard to find plans. This model was kitted way back in the fifties and it must be included in every Sterling plan collection, hopefully with parts.

Hi, I really love your site and I thank you for hosting it. I am looking for a set of Pong 2 plans in PDF format. It is an .09-.10 size low wing sport model. I have searched high and low for a set of PDF plans only to be at a dead end. Thank You,

Sky Dancer by Frank van den Burgh
This is a wonderful website you have created, a real treasure chest! I have just reached retirement age and, I suspect like many of your contributors and members, am currently enjoying something of a nostalgia trip. I am only now returning to the hobby after something like 26 years "off" but prior to that I had been modelling since the age of about 8 years old and in the 60s was in on what I suppose were the fairly early days of R/C when my dad bought me a "Mini Reptone"... One of my heroes in those days was Frank van den Burgh, one of the members of the British team in the first World Aerobatics Campionships and a member of the Bromley Club. Frank test flew my first 'multi' model which was a way over ambitious (on my part) copy of a pylon racer called 'Coccyx' which Mr. VdB had designed....... It crashed! The Coccyx was incredibly fast and a bit of a beast and I doubt very much whether a plan exists for that but another model I would very much like to build would be the Sky Dancer, which is the model F vd B flew in the World Champs in I think 1962 or thereabouts. It had a tricycle u/c and an upright engine, which I think was cowled in. I have looked pretty extensively for a plan of the Sky Dancer but have so far been unsuccessful so if You or any of your contributors have a copy or know where I could get one, I would be eternally grateful.

Jr. Sky Tiger from Carl Goldberg
Hi Steve, I would really like to get my hands on a Carl Goldberg Models Sky Tiger and Jr. Sky Tiger plan. These were low wing, flat bottom kits now long out of production. I have a Sky Tiger (40 size) now and love it. I want to build the smaller Jr. Sky Tiger too… Thank you,

Royal Piper Colt
I would like to find the plans and formers for the Royal Piper Colt. It was my FIRST RC model and flew beautifully until it had a battery failure. Someone, somewhere must have these. If so, please post them on Outerzone. I know there are others that would appreciate them also. Thanks,

Cessna 170 by Berkeley Models : scanned die cut parts
I've been looking for the parts of this design by Henry Struck. Not the WE plan which is different. These parts are very difficult to prepare from the full size kit plan. Thanks,

Stardust Special
I’m looking for a plan for the Stardust Special Free Flight IC pylon model. It’s a popular 1/2A electric Texaco design so it must be pre 1942. I don’t know much more about it.

CL Fairchild PT-19 by California Models
I built this control line model when I was about twelve years old. I never flew it until I was a teenager. I had a Vivell 35 engine on it. In later years I owned a real PT-19. They are both long gone now. Today I am 76 and would dearly love to build another copy of my first CL model. I greatly enjoy your plan service and have downloaded a great many into my collection. I feel you are a friend for what you have shared. Thank You.

Stuka by D&B Model Aircraft
Hi Steve, I am looking for a D &B Model Aircraft Stuka Plan. This was a R/C kit. I remember seeing video of someone flying a converted version of the model for control line flying. I believe it was the JU-87B version of the Stuka and it had a foam wing. I would guess it’s from the late 60’s, early 70’s. Thanks for the consideration

Westland Lysander by Flitecraft
Hello Steve. An old model maker friend is trying to locate plans for the Flitecraft Westland Lysander. He has part built the model over 20 years and the plans he has are now too faded to work from for him to complete his project. He is now 80 years old so if anyone can help in finding a clearer copy he will be able to finish his model.

Royal/Marutaka Piper Colt
This plan has been very hard to find. The Colt/TriPacer by Royal/Marutaka was an excellent design and the kit was beautifully made with all parts saw cut, no laser. Being the same Tri-Pacer but with smaller engine of 108 horsepower and only two seats the Colt was an attempt by William Piper to compete with the Cessna 150. I remember that the plane was put on sale in 1961 with a basic price of USD$4.995.00. Incredible!! Those were the days.

MK Mattlas 20 or Mattlas 40
Hi Steve, I love your site – it’s wonderful. Many years ago while I was a teenager I built a MK Mattlas 20, which was a reduced size version of Wolfgang Matt’s Atlas. The shape of this design really appealed to me, and I thought it looked just lovely. The model was kitted by MK, a Japanese company that no longer exists. Initially I powered my model with an early Thunder Tiger 25 but it lacked performance. The model was re-engined with a more powerful Kosmic 23 and the extra power of this Perry carb equipped Italian engine gave it a great performance. Unfortunately I lacked the necessary experience to handle the model and it only had a short life. I’m now in my late 40s and nostalgia has kicked in! - I’d really love to build another example of either this model or its larger brother, the Mattlas 40. I’ve been looking for a plan for this model for quite a while but alas so far to no avail. I’d be eternally grateful if an Outerzone reader can supply a plan! Kind regards,

Scientific CL Hellcat with built up fuselage 18in 1/2A
Hi Steve, if you or your staff [! edit: I wish...] could locate and publish this, I would greatly appreciate it. This is the plan / instruction sheet for the 1/2-A Scientific Hellcat CL 18 inch wingspan built up semi-scale plan. I built one in 1965 in my younger years, and would like to re-create it. I have not been able to find it at any sources. Or if you know of a source I can contact to obtain a plan, would appreciate it. Thanks in advance,

DeBolt Cobra II
Hi, I am looking for a plan designed by Harold deBolt and released as a kit in 1968 by I believe when he was with Demco. The plan I am trying to get is the COBRA II. I have searched high and low with no success. It is possible that it was in his Live Wire series but am not sure. I would very much like to scratch build this model as I feel It was one of Hal’s best looking and flying designs. It has been redesigned for electric flight as the eCobra and is listed in the AMA database. However, I am looking for the original glow version. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Warnford Corinthian 36in glider
I wonder if anyone can help with a plan for the Warnford Corinthian. This is a 36" glider I built in my youth. It was a wonderful floater and to rebuild and fly one again would bring back many happy memories. It was advertised in Aeromodeller March 1949, page 216 shows it (along with a couple of others I've never seen). Many thanks

Skyleada Curtiss Owl 16in
Dear Sir, I have been asking many people if they know where I can obtain a copy of the kit plan: Skyleada 16" series Curtiss Owl, which was one of 12 models that were available during 1940's 1950's but I haven't had any luck in obtaining one as yet.

Vacation Trainer (maybe from Great Planes?)
I am looking for the plans of a Vacation Trainer. I was given this model and it's plan when I was teenager. I loved flying this 25 cu.in plane. A high wing, 4 channel trainer, it had great handling characteristics. It was acrobatic but forgiving. My dad and brothers "borrowed" it one day for a 'night flying' event, This was in the days before LEDs. They used glow sticks on the wing tips. Then they let some semi-inebriated hotshot fly/destroy my favorite plane. The dog was blamed. They went as far as making teeth marks in the balsa to frame the hound. It could have been a Great Planes kit. Not sure, and now I'm old so I cant remember anyway. I would be great if it could be found.

Carl Goldberg Models 'Tiger'
This very attractive low wing model was designed using the Eaglet philosophy. Easy to build and lots of plywood. It has a rather thick airfoil section and despite being a low winger, it is very stable and easy to fly.. Also a very difficult plan to obtain. As a matter of fact, I want all versions of the Tiger. I may or may not be correct but I think there was a flat wing version of the Tiger which is the one I like most.

Curtiss P-40
I am trying to find the plans for a 3/4 scale control line Curtiss P-40, that I think was designed by Paul Del Gatto, but possibly by Paul Palanek, The plans appeared first in Flying Models, sometime in the late 50s or early 60s. It was later kitted by Enterprise. It was advertised as a very accurate and detailed model. It was the only large scale model kitted by Enterprise. At the time, I saw ads for both the plans and kit, but never saw either in real life. The plans were sold by Timely Plans Service.

Ato 22
A plea for the Ato22. This is a 22inch rubber model from the same Ato stable as Ato 36(glider) sold in Belfast shortly after the last war. I (last) built one in 1947.

Leo biplane from Astral Kits
The Leo was one of the first successful larger models I built. Successful is always subjective, of course. The combination of structure & wood choice meant it was a bit flimsy. Always had a liking for biplanes, and now I could build it better...
