There is one being offered on the brotherhood site, I think it's an S1 modified for training purposes. All dimensions etc are standard it's only the suggested construction which differs from the original as far as I know. I have a copy and it's next on my build list.

I guess as it was offered free of charge there is no restriction in me passing it on in it's unmodified state?

Let me know if you want a copy emailed.

The wing in my Ringmaster Trainer is 1/2" lower than the S1. The wing must be lower to allow the break-away rubber band retention method. The wing profile is not the S1 "polywog" profile. The wing is based on an Eppler 473 for more lift and drag.

Mark,

Yea, sorry. Something came up that I had to attend to. Long story but involved a pile of money and a flooded yard.
