There are three .pdf files to download, one is the original set of plans but they are heavily over scanned and hard to read. The second is a well done CADed version, all lines are crisp and all writing is readable. I took this set to Staples and they were able to print perfectly. The scale is set to an 80- inch wingspan…

The last pdf is the article from RCM magazine and includes that bonus materials list

Let’s get building!!!
