Need Pica Duelist Plans
I'm building my first dual engine. I started it a few years ago and am now just getting back to it. After digging out the box from storage, I found the plans to be in pretty bad shape. Anyone know where I can get a set?

Be aware that the Pica Duellist (MK I) and the plans available from RCSTORE (MK II) aren't exactly the same plane. I understand the most significant differences are in the wing. There are also some changes to the tail feathers and wing/tail incidence.

RE: Need Pica Duelist Plans
Looking for Duellist plans seems to be a frequently asked question around here. I hear the plans service for RC Modeler has them. They must be the MKI design since they're Dave Platt's original design from the 70's.

RE: Need Pica Duelist Plans
Well, since no one else has them, I have an extra set of plans from the Pica kit, the MK1. I bought a set from Pica to redo a swapmeet duellist. But it was so bad I burned it and got a kit. I can tape a bunch of toilet paper rolls together for a tube, or just fold it. Robert is right, the man plans are for the MK2 and there are a few differences from the MK1. It would be tough to scratch build straight from the Pica plans, not all the ribs and such are there. An experienced builder could do it, but why bother when the man plans are better anyway. PM me your address or open channel.

Yes they did. Exactly what I was looking for. Now I'll be able to spend hours on end finishing the Duelist, you've made my wife very happy.....

Hi, I have just begun building the pica duellist from a kit I bought at a club sale only to find F1 to F10 are missing. Can anyone help with drawings or photocopy of these formers so that I can cut replacements.
