Well, let me see if I have something like that hanging around on my desk....

Oh yeah, here it is... It's a 5-page article with no plans. It does show how to get them, though.

Which version are you thinking about building and, if you have the plans, where did you get them from? I might pop for a set myself.

Oh yeah, there's a 6th page to this 5-page article... the cover. It was pretty good!!! She sure does look cute holding that Zlin,

Bob

Thank you Bob. I am building the 1/4 scale. It is aoldschool print, lots of weight, lots and lots of plywood. I am going with a foam wing and a 30cc gas, I will take a lot of weight out of it.

Where did you get the plans??? DId you buy them from SRCM when they were publishing or is someone else handling them now? I might look into getting a set once I read this article.

Thanks,

Bob

Yes I got them from SRCM a few weeks ago. I have their E-Mail address if you want it.

Yes, please give me that link when you have the chance.

I thought that, where SRCM has been gond for so long that the plans would be impossible to get (defunct address) or that someone else had bought them out.

I see that you are starting a link on the build. I've already subscribed to it so that I can lurk. And, I say that you should go for the built-up wing!!
