    I did get the subscription. So I’m looking through it for dimensions. Our “ model air force” is manpower limited so we can’t crank out models like WW 2. I hope I live long enough to see what we have fly . Looks like we will “ front half” the remains of the D model I’ll design with minimum...

    We just took prints over for enlargements once I get them back I’ll begin modifying the general outline profile . Then I’ll have to cut up at lest one set to make Make building plans. Then this will go back for a real solid copy print. Then the real work begins . I just received some icyures...

    Oh my gosh thank you ! I missed this drawing initially. This will really help once I get the the plans enlarged . I’ll redraw the entire rudder to fit the actual scale size . I’m pretty sure that by the time the H model flew the tail surfaces were covered with the new “ dural” aluminum . Not...

    There are almost no Rc model plans available other than what I have also no plastic model kits other than the one from china that wanted my life information. Scale Rc competition is usual done but supplying documentation for scale features overall appearance craftsman ship then scale flight...

    I’ll also check the stab too. The D model plans I have are well proven Rc planes I realize the full size had the big fuel tank . The only thing we have in the tail section is the tail wheel mechanics , these are pretty light as they mechanically operated by or servo operated by serv mounted...

    Extremely important information! Thank you I did not know this . It creates a n interesting situation . Do I make the H as a D model with new wing shape or do I assume the model H designer took this into account? I’d guess not not but once plansre blown up I can check . Then what to do about...

    That's not correct the H was lengthened to 33.3' The D was 32’ even . So far I’ve found that most of the length increase was because the rudder was much taller so it was reshaped. Actually “ significantly taller” is how most sources call it. Thanks to posted drawings here you can see this. A...

    I want to thank you for posting the drawings . I’ll try and blow them up to a C size or better. The issue is the line weight or thickness goes up too so if you try to scale something you have to use line centerline to center line measurements hopefully these were originally cad drawing...

    Wow thanks forvthe drawing it looks like it’s exactlybwhatbibwasvlookingvfor . My eyes are so bad I can hardly se the drawing on my phone but I’ll have my son print it out he comes home . I have a new set of D plans coming so I’ll be able to compare “ real time “ as it is said there might be a...

    The wing mod was one of the firt things we found . The plans we are going to expand have the straight wing. It will be nice to use smaller less expensive wheels and tires . If we can just get away with a cap on the rudder it would be good. Some pictures show a painted cap but the actual rudder...

    Interesting . I searched for some plastic model of H . I found only one official unknown brand also found another very , very expensive only one left , but it was too iffy to spend that much on something that was probably junk I found a couple of bag of parts no box unknown brand . Again …. Not...

    Thank for the drawing we will print it and try to scale it . Somewhere I saw 10" taller but I have not been able to re find that site . Most notes of the fact just say significantly taller. I had a hard time just finding good Rc plans . They are just a bit smaller than we wanted for wing span...

    We are just starting anew Rc giant scale 1/5 P 51-H. I have secured plans and permission to enlarge and copy them one issue is “ how much taller is the H model rudder. “ all I can find is “ significantly large “ no numbers we think the plans are incorrect wingspan and length seem ok . Belly...
