Don't know if this factors in but, the Fox 35 has no kadenacy effect as the transfer closes before the intake opens.


I've never heard that term "kadenacy effect"
If I understand what  you said was that there is no place in the rotation that you can blow through the venturi into the cylinder.  Is that correct.  "Kadenacy"
Got to go perform some "mouth to mouth" on some engines.   :)

I brushed 3 coats of non-tautening butyrate clear (thinned 50%) on the plane and all parts.  I also sanded lightly between each coat with 320 grit paper.  Now the fun starts with applying silk span.

I got my shipment of dope from Aircraft Spruce and 4 rolls of medium silk span from Easy Built Models.  While I was waiting for materials I cleaned my shop, which included painting the walls and base boards, which were covered with overspray from previous builds.  I also painted the pilot!  Now back to work on Vertigo II!

For motor mounts try Vintage Performance Model Airplanes.

Matt, the plans you are after are on Outerzone.  I think 2 and 3 are on the same plan and 4 is on it's own.   Just looked and you'll need 2 and 3 for the full plan of 3.

Does anyone know where I can get a set of Mustunt 3 and 4 plans?  I can't seem to find mine.  An idea is hatching and I would like a set of each.

Brodak has the mounts and bellcranks:

Unfortunately, they're now quite expensive.  If you're making lots of mounts, you can do what I did.  Go to Home Depot or some other home improvement store and buy 1/16" aluminum angle and cut it down to1" pieces, then drill for the engine mounting holes and fuselage mounting holes.
