Default Hall Buldog Plans

Hello All
I would like to know if anybody has built a Hall Bulldog Racer from Vern Clements plans. I would like to buy the plans but there is not much info on this plans on the forums I searched. I know Cleveland Air Lines Also has the plans but from what I read they sometimes don`t show much on installation of engines and radios since some are scaled up rubber models.
your help will be appreciated.
Yours
Juan

If you are planning on flying the model powered by anything other than a rubber band, begin looking harder. I know there have been advertisements for the Bulldog in a multitude of proportions. A good ten years ago or so, there was big list in MODERN AVIATION of who was selling plans for all of the classic racers. I think there were about five listed at that time.

This is a difficult A/C to fly, so is best to lean upon previously tested models and the resulting plans, not pure scale plans.

Hello 4trax and coosbay lumber

Thanks for the information and advice. I was researching this for a friend and he decided to order the Vern Clements plans. I will check the NZ aero products . I realize this is not an easy to fly plane and I will follow coos advise if I buy a set for myself. I have flown some heavy scale jobs and I know you just don`t jerk them around or espect them to float specially at high wing loadings. speed and altitude are our best buddy`s.

Hello All
Received the Vern Clements Hall bulldog Drawings and to my friend and me they are of limited use.
All the drawings showed full size aircraft construction leaving me to engineer a model. It should be noted that if you want to build a full size replica they are it. They show a lot of detail if you would want to finish a scale model. To me it was a loss of money as I didn`t want to start that far back.
Will be checking the NZ company that sell the plans for an R/C model.
