Default Profile Plane

I'm looking for plans on the internet for profile planes. I'm really really in the mood to build myself one from depron and since I have an extra motor, esc and battery lying around I think it's the perfect opportunity.

Can anyone recommend a good site? I'm looking for something which I can 3d a bit with etc.

Thank you Broken Wings...I googled and found!

I'm going to build the Sbach 342 which I found here...http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...1180912&page=1

Just a couple of questions:

1. Which is the best glue to use in construction with depron? Would e-poxy work fine?

2. What does one use for hinges - they talk about hinge tape - is this just a tape strip which you join the halves with? Sorry I know this is a stupid question, but this is the first light foam type plane I'm building.

Oh running into a bit of a problem...printing the tiled plans from pdf format, it cuts off at the margins (I did set the printing area as mentioned in the introduction to the plans), however it doesn't seem that where the line ends on the one page that it "carries on" on the next page...it seems to be printing part of the line from the previous page on the next. Difficult to explain...hope someone can understand. Is there an easy way to get the pages perfectly together/ matching up the lines. If you differ 3-4mm from the plan en length etc, it wouldn't make that big difference?
