Shoestring Stunter...
« on: February 15, 2018, 02:00:11 PM »

I do not remember whom I had gotten a pdf file from for the shoestring stunter but In my many computer losses i have lost the file. I am hoping to build a 2/3 sized version. If somebody has the file that has the ribs and wing plans I would much appreciate it.

Bill Simon's Shoestring (FM Plan CF-237) has a built-up fuselage for .35s, and Pat King's Shoestring 45 is a built-up profile for .45 engines.

  The Brodak version of the Shoestring Stunter has "conventional" wing construction, and may be what you had? Not sure where digital files can be found, but plans can be had from Brodak.

Well by name it would be interesting but I have more ties to the shoestring.
When I first got into control line I built a half a f-51 with a cox 049 on it. I went to flushing meadow park to try and fly it and it did not make it into the air for a flight till i had some help from Dick Kurt. He taught many people to fly and He was there almost every weekend. That was around 1968/69 My dad passed shortly after that. We never had a lot of money but I managed to get a fox 35 and a shoestring stunter and flew almost every w/e from the time I got into high school to almost 1975. So building a shoestring of what to me is my favorite size of planes would be preferable.
