 I am working on uploading a large collection of plans I have accumulated over the years. Some in CAD format, some not. Electric, gliders, glow, rubber powered... all sorts of stuff.

Hopefully it will be of use to others.

You can check in the downloads section

 for the cad ones, you need a program that opens dxf or dwg files. Autocad, turbocad and all sorts of stuff. Some free programs can be found to download.

Here are some:

 Just added a few more. Mostly old rubber powered models.

A lot more stuff to add as I go.

 Lots of those old rubber powered planes should make good electric conversions. Dumas and others are doing just that with some of their rubber powered designs.

 I actually thought there might be a market for some of those designs, laser cut, made for small electric. The whole nostalgia thing and all.

 I think there is a market out there. Maybe not huge, but certainly a market. I love building stick and tissue type models, but tremors are making that a little tough.

 This is the one I had blown up to 200%. It will have a 72 inch wingspan. I made one with a WOOD propeller in the early 70's as the original stick and tissue free flight model and it flew really well.
