Title: Brodak Electric Super Clown Fin and Rudder?
Post by: John Cralley on July 26, 2013, 03:13:12 PM
Hoping for some help here. I have a Brodak Electric Super Clown ARF which I have had several years and today I decided it was time to assemble it. I have bashed the nose to allow me to rear mount a Scorpion motor and all has been progressing well until a bit ago I discovered that the vertical fin and rudder are missing.   HB~>

I am sure that Brodak will probably come up with replacements but if I just had a copy of the plans I could easily fabricate my own fin and rudder. Since the ARF has no plans, I am hoping that someone will scan the fin and rudder from their plans and email me a file that I can them use it to make those parts.

Thanks in advance!!!  ;D

Wow 65 views and not a single offer to help. I know that Stunt Hanger has a lot of Lurkers but surely someone has a Super Clown.

I wanted to get this done this weekend.

I don't want the plans -- just the outline of the fin and rudder. If you have a Super Clown, just slap a piece of paper up against the fin and rudder and trace the outline. Put it on your all in one printer copier and scan it. On some printers you can scan to an email otherwise save it as a pdf or jpg and send it to me or post it to this thread.

Please!  ;D

Best I can do is from memory. Rudder looks like it came off a Ringmaster but is a bit smaller. Stab and elevator are fairly straight pieces with round corners. maybe 7-8 inches long and 3 inches wide (both pieces) hinge line about 50/50. If it looks right it will fly..

Wonder how close I came  :!

John,

I sent you (by e mail) a scan off the Brodak plan, apparently at the same time that jfv was tracing his airplane.  A little shaming goes a long ways!
