been a little busy with other work lately and this project has ended up being sidelined for a while.. last few weeks though I have got a bit more done and the drafts for the first kit are done.
The first kit will be the Manuel Primary, its in 1/4 scale. The plans pack is fairly comprehensive with a total of 8 A0 sheets… lol YES 8 (no skimping or cutting corners here!). At the minute the plans pack is expected to sell for £35 which I realise is more than most plans but this pack has 2 sets of plans (one in draft to build on and one in more detail as a reference.. so no ruining your plans or copying needed!).
I am going to do 25 sets of plans as a limited edition, these are all serial numbered and will come with some special decals… also included in the cost is 2 £5 donations to linked aviation charities or good causes related to project.
Lastly the plans packs are a non profit exercise, the small profit in the pack I make will be used to buy extra plan packs which will be donated to local schools and clubs to help cement local interest our our villages history.
I’m talking with a well known cnc cutting company to produce a full balsa/ply kit later in the year too.
If this all goes well then the project should be expended later in the year with a current list of over 10 new plans being commissioned.
