Try the AMA. They should have them.

Or try this post and download the attached.

Not the best quality but nonetheless they can be printed on fresh paper.

Nice!

Do you also have the wing plan available?

Thanks,
DF

I might have it here.

Jim

Thanks guys this is just what I need

DF,

Amazing forum ain't it ?!

When it works..., I might add...

David

When airage store shipped me plans of the .40 Gator Flea, I also received the fuselage plans for the Compensator. But not the wing plans. So someone provided me with the wing plans from the southern rc model kit.BTY a compensator might go on ebay shortly. The person who bought it for $100.00 on rcgroups usually resells on ebay. I would love to get the full RC Southern kit for $100.00. What a bargin.

Jim

I'll be looking for it I would be willing to cut kit and sell them cheap the plans I have now are from my first kit I built in 78 they are old and worn I'm also set up for cutting foam

Excellent! Thanks all.

What would have been the engine of choice back in the day, I wonder

DF

Os 61. I put a os 61 rear exhaust pipe through the upper part of the fuselage and fitted a 1/8 inch plywood deck inside and out the top of the fuselage 16 oz tank would get me through the flight and had power for that hateful figure m with half rolls lol

Now that's something I could be interested in :-)

David

I might just add that the rear exhaust Compensator layout is essentially a Bootlegger. Same wing, stab (mostly) and the fuse is only very slightly different.

If an OS VF is to be used, there already is a Bootlegger short kit being made by Scott (RCFoamy). Just thought it might save you some time and support the classic cottage industry.

David

www.eurekaaircraft.com has the short kit for the compensator in varioius forms.
