Default Micro T Trainer HELP

Hello

Does any one know where I can buy plans for the "Micro T Trainer" from a book entitled Aircraft workshop: learn to make models that fly. By Kelvin Shacklock. The plans in the book need enlarged and it is quite hard to do that, I was wondering if you can buy the plans from some where?

The standard trainers use a minimum 60" wing span for lots of reasons. How big is the micro trainer? If its smaller than 60" then it probably wouldn't work that well as a trainer any way.[8D]

I'm not familiar with the plane you mention.

If it's for 4-channel RC flight, with a .40-.46 engine, then about 60" is the right range. If it's designed for other types of flying, or smaller engines, then it could be quite a bit smaller. That might or might not be an issue.

Hey,

Wingspan is 65in and it uses a 0.25 engine, its based on the design of a microlight, I am starting to believe that the the design was for the book only... its rather hard to get the plans enlarged. :/

You can check out RC Modeler magazine web site. The section called RCM store sells lots of differentplans at low prices. Check out the link below for an example. If you do order a set of plans have them ship it in envelope, not rolled. Flat plans are cheap to ship, rolled are too pricy! http://www.rcmmagazine.com/e/env/000...m=plans:PL-711
