scratchbuilder46

anyone! Just was given the kit, but no building instructions. The plans are toast too, but I have them on the way from a friend in Escondido. Would any of you builders of this kit be willing to make me a copy of the building instruction packet? I will pay for the copy, mail and maybe enough extra for a gallon of fuel, etc. I do scratch build, but would like to have some sense of where things go in this kit. It is about half built, but things don't quite look right, and I sure want to make things straight at this point. Any help out there? Thanks

I scanned the instructions to my Marutaka P-38 (same as the Royal) to someone about a month ago. I'll see if I can find them tonight and PM you. I started this thread on mine which may help out.

Royal P-38 Building instructions:

Glue block A to block B. Glue block C to block D. ... Glue block QZ24 to block QZ25. Glue all sub block assemblies together, sand to shape. Add engines and hardware and the plane is now complete.

If DamonTX cannot locate his instructions, I can scan and post them tonight.

That's about right--just glue all the wood in the box together and carve and sand away everything that doesn't look like a P-38. My instructions were 3 typewritten , yes , with a typewriter, sheets of paper, NO pictures, but nice plans.

That would be great! There looks like a few of you brave souls who have taken on this project. I had originally wanted to scratchbuild this model, but a fellow I build for locally had an old kit he lost interest in, so his loss my gain(I think). I have built the Royal Spit and as said in another post glue A to B C to D and carve, sand, sand, carve and it will eventually become an airplane. We always wondered why they did'nt include a knife in the kit either to help you build or comit herri-kerri. Thanks for all the help. I will look forward to the directions from one of you fine folks.

Here ya go. I've got a bad feeling this won't be legible so I'll email you the scanned images.

If all else fails, I can copy you a set and send them to you. I think it is about 18 pages long, but happy to do it for you if you need it. Thanks Dave

Damon-- that's how clear they are even when you CAN read them. Mine might as well have been in Chinese
