I am doing my research slowly and checking the archives. I have ordered up a set of scratch plans for the Fokker D VII. I seen in the archives a reference to RCM for scratch plans. What is the web site for RCM or information as to where I might locate it in RC magazines? Doc Ferguson thank you in advance.
They have a pointer to the plans section. I ordered (and received) a set of Super Kaos plans, so I know it works.
The "plans" section is in the back of each RCM, with pictures and ordering instructions. They send a copy of the article, with the plans, and the plans are good quality.
Thanks Mike, This is exactly what I was look for and have it book marked now. I am also lucky to find an RC club locally and a member just three blocks away from my house. Now I don't care about Mr. Nasty Winter coming here in Wisconsin, I can sit in the comfort of my shop downstairs and dream about cloud busting in the spring. I no longer hold a private ticket to fly the real things and this should be an interesting experience to get into. Doc Ferguson
Doc, where in WI are you?

Be sure to take your neighbors inevitable advice and learn on something different than the Fokker D7 ! Maybe you could build/ buy a trainer that uses the engine/radio that eventually goes into the D7 !

_Very_ good quality. I recently ordered a set of plans for an old plane from MAN, and those were horrible. They were missing a small section of the drawings, and they looked like a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a ... A little later, I ordered a set of plans from RCM for an even older plane. These looked like a new set of plans that you'd find in a newly bought kit.
I have no connection with RCM; I'm just planning on getting into scratch building this winter, and was amazed by the difference in the quality of the plans that I saw.
One nice thing about MAN was that they gave me two copies of the plan, whereas RCM only gave one...

Actually, Proctor has a DVII with an 88 inch wing. Last I knew they would sell plans alone. Worth a try and considering the quality of their kits, might at the very least provide you with some details not shown on any other plans.

Could you provide the web site for MAN? Doc Ferguson
