RE: New Plans Posted for your Enjoyment
I built the enlarged Twin Lizzie RC from MAN plans. It presented some challenges, especially with the rudder control, but all were resolved.
The thing turned out on the heavy side and needed nose weight to get the CG correct. If I were to build it again (and I won't) I would move the firewall forward an inch or so. An OS .15 needs to turn at top RPM to get it off the ground. Perhaps a .25 would be better.

RE: New Plans Posted for your Enjoyment
I started building the astro hog this weekend. I enlarged the plans to 265% and the inch scale was just perfect. So far it's going good, except I can't get the sheeting on the wings to lay quite right, but I'm working on it! This is my first build so I will learn alot, hopefully! I'll post pics ASAP. I've almost got the wings done except for sheeting. Thanks alot for posting the plans, I know the 60 size was an outstanding bird!
