I ran across a couple of plans I messed around with creating in ModelCAD a while back. Neither of 'em have been built, but I'm planning to dress 'em up a bit better in TurboCAD. It'll probably be a while before I can ever get around to building either of them myself, but I'll be glad to share them if anyone wants them after I get them tweaked a bit. The single is designed around a Norvel .074, and the twin should be good for a couple of 1/2A's.

Hey Dig,

I'm partial to eliptical wings and you drew a pretty one. Nice job. Its good to see designs that you have to "build".

I really like the elliptical wing twin. I might have to borrow that vertical tail and stab for something of my own!

Well, I'll get the plans cleaned up a bit and share them then. I'm messing around with another crazy idea too - a flying wing twin with the engines mounted in pods above the wing. As an aside, what the best way to share plans here? I hope to be able to start building (and flying) again sometime this winter. It's been WAY too long.

Check out [link=http://groups.msn.com/12Aalltheway]1/2A All the Way[/link] -- it's a MSN Group set up by Bipe Flyer. In the Documents section, there is a Plans folder where plans can be uploaded. Membership is required, but it is free -- just a signup. There are several plans from the group posted there now.

I'd like to share the CAD drawings I've made of the Norvel .061 and .074, but there a tad on the large size - even zipped (10.7 MB and 2.21 MB respectively). The reason they're so big is because they're in 3D. The .061 is mechanically accurate inside and out, although the measurements may not be EXACTLY correct (I used a ruler and guestimated). They're plenty close enough to use for plans, though.

Any ideas on how to share these things efficiently?
