I think RCM or MAN has the plans for sale. Its very easy to build and a great flier. I have built several of them, all with some changes. Take a look at my last one at the following link

I have another one I am building, again with changes and have a company on the east coast, FunAero that does the laser cutting of it. If you are interested you could get the cutting from them, I think they charge about 30.00 for it. But there are quite a few changes to that one and the original.

Cloud Dancer 40-60/short kit
Here is a pic of my poor departed cloud dancer. elevator failure took her young.
By the way I have a canopy for a 60 size. Iallways thought I would build another but doubt I ever will. If someone is interested in the 60 size plans and canopy I could probably dig them out and sell them for 10 bucks or so.

WOW!
I have loved the Cloud Dancer since before I learned how to fly. Now that I have been flying for a couple of years, I am thinking of all of the airplanes that I liked way back when and the Cloud Dancer is definitely my favorite. Does it have a symmetrical or semi-symmetrical airfoil? Dan I am like you, I really would rather build one as opposed to the ARF's. Is the construction on these that you all mentioned here the same that was on the kit forms of these airplanes when Ace manufactured them? Thank you all very much, this was the neatest thread that I think that I have stumbled upon!

I am interested in your offer for the plans and the canopy. I can't make any commitments yet, but I just want you to know that I am interested. I have to run this by my parents first :cry: . I will be gone to Yellowstone for the next two weeks, so when I get back, I can say whether or not I will be able to. Thanks alot.
