There's two sources of plans that I'm aware of:

RE: Gibbs Ziroli 94

I usually use threaded rods on both ends of the pushrod, secured with jam nuts. I'm not a big fan of solder joints on an elevator linkage.

RE: Gibbs Ziroli 94

Hi Barry:
I'm the builder of morpower's P-40 pictured above. I planked the filets per the plan, then added a coat of Stits Super-Fil epoxy putty to get the final shape.

Here's a few pics that...

RE: One Eighth Air Force scale fun fly pics

Here's a few of my pics. Many thanks to OEAF and Arizona Model Aviators for putting on such an outstanding event. This was my second year and the event just keeps getting better (and bigger).

RE: Super Decathlon VS. Taylorcraft

Can't go wrong with a CW T-Craft.

Here's mine. Built from Bob Nelitz plans at 33%. 112" wingspan, 32 pounds, 3W 78 twin for power. It is an absolute joy to fly.

RE: Gary Allen 33% Bücker Jungmeister

Hi Roger:
Gary at getstencils.com did all my masks. They were superb. Unfortunately I don't think he's doing paint masks anymore. Shame, as he did nice work at affordable prices.

I used paint masks on my Jungie for most of the graphics and am happy with the results. It takes a bit longer but you get an exact color match and no problem going over surface detail....

RE: Gary Allen 33% Bücker Jungmeister

RE: need some help with Sig Cub/1.60twin cowl

Here's mine. I used a fiberglass cowl from Stans and cut in half as shown. Secured to the fuselage with #2 screws.

You'll love the Cub with this engine. Great flier with a very cool sound.

RE: COX WINGS 27% PITTS M12 ARF 50cc

I sure don't think it's a dog. I've got about 20 flights on mine with a G-62 and really like the way the model flies and looks. I don't do 3D so can't comment on hover, blender, etc capabilities, but...

RE: Jim Pepino's YMF-5 Waco

Hi Ken: You might want to consider using Super-Fill from Stitts for the fillets. It's a very lightweight epoxy putty that sands and shapes easily when cured.

I used it on my Ziroli P-40,...
