61" span Lockheed Super Constellation plans on OuterZone. Shows as an electric RC or slope soaring so would likely have to have some structural mod's for CL I would think. Still a decent set of plans. Thought it had an abundance of dihedral but after looking at 3 views of the 1:1 scale, might be fairly accurate.

Thanks for the reply.
I appreciate that lead, I went there and typed in Super Constellation but the search came up empty.
Sometimes, with accurate outlines of an aircraft, it's easier to draw the construction from scratch rather than draw over plan lines you won't be using.
I would consider building a Connie, I had a plastic kit as a kid, so the interest is there. Conversations with those that have actually built one is a good start, but that doesn't always happen. Buying one from someone is a really good start, but that doesn't always happen either, but it's a thought.
Anyone tired of their Connie? Anyone got a tired Connie that needs a retro?
Having four engines of the required size, in my posession, would be an asset.
Knowing the required engine size is a good beginning.
I'm guessing .09 to .15. NIB times four.
I guess if you wanted a stunt-Connie, you could pump that up a bit.
I don't know what the length would be at 61" in span but the length is a factor also. Wing would have to be removable because I have limited space and a fake SUV, a Tucson.
I would also have to sell stuff to finance a Connie project. Anyone want to buy stuff?
The Connie is a great aircraft to model, plenty of schemes to choose from.
