PBY Plans
I am but a poor college student looking for plans for a PBY and read that RCM has plans for it. I have no idea what RCM stands for or how to get to thier web stie. If anyone can help me or if you have a set of plans you would like to get rid of at a low price that would be GREAT!!
Thank You
PS I am looking for a wingspan of about 5 feet or so.

RE: PBY Plans
Go to your browser and type in www.rcmmagazine.com and it will bring up Radio Control Modeler magazine home page. It`s easy to find the plans from there. A plan for a PBY with a span of about 65" is available for US$16.50.

RE: PBY Plans
I built my PBY from the RCM plan, you can see the model at different stage of construction at :

This is not an easy to build project, there is a lots of parts to carve from balsa blocks moreover, the fuselage is sheeted from 1/64 plywood then covered with monokote, this is a challenging task, but the end result worth the effort, by the way, this is not a true scale model.
