Post by: Roger Vizioli on December 19, 2007, 09:36:57 PM

Need some help.
Fellow club member needs the dimensions of the Junior Nobler stab and elevator(s).
Dimensioned sketch or marked up pic would be appreciated.

Hi Roger

Ahh the old trying to build a Jr Nobler from the Top Flite plan trick.  (and you have discovered there is no tail plane drawing on the plan) :)

Lucky for you I have a Jnr Nobler kit that has some pieces missing.  This should get you out of trouble.

Merry Christmas

Thanks to all for the additional replies.
We have what we need.
Sparky, thanks for a great forum, obtaining this info would have taken ??days/weeks way back when.

Try http://members.tripod.com/~TomDixon/plans2.htm . There are other sources but Tom's has the stab, tip rib, abd root rib drawn in.

If you build from the kit plans, you need to compare top and side views to create fuselage formers, interpolate root rib and tip rib from airfoil at fuselage using top view for length, and interpolate stab and elevator from 1/4 size view (or use the one generously supplied above).

Hey if I draw a set of building plans for the JR Nobler would any one be interested in a set?

Sets of plans are available, Just the Kit drawings that I was able to order, don't Have the Ribs drawn. Someone on this site was kind enough to send me a Photo copy of theirs.
But Yes, I think that they would sell.... Just my 2 cents worth.
