Over_The_Edge,

did you ever find your Shoestring plans? I recently bought a set of Buster plans from a seller on Ebay. He seems to have them on a regular basis for the Shoestring and Buster. I was not overly impressed with the plans as he said you could build from the plans. You could but I prefer to have templates of all of the parts to do it with! The only template was of the wing ribs, elevator, and rudder. The ribs were on a photocopied page (that chopped off the top of one of the ribs) that someone sent him that had a kit. There was no fuselage template and looked mostly like the Carl Goldberg plan but redrawn somewhat. I was not overly impressed with them but they are usable. He also sent a shrunken copy of the original Carl Goldberg assembly plan but that was on 4 regular 8-1/2"x11" sheets that you had to tape together to get the page.

I also just contacted Hobbico/Great Planes about obtaining the plans from their Goldberg Skylane 62 RC kit and you might try the same thing for the Shoestring plans since Great Planes and Hobbico just bought Carl Goldberg. It sounded like they might have them but no idea what they are charging for them (assuming they do still have them).

Good luck.
