John,

What you have explained above is fairly general.  You suggest that you could start with an existing large RC design and scale it down.  You suggest that you could start with a Cleveland kit plans.  You suggest you want to build an electric UC scale design.  You suggest that you want to build from an existing design.  You suggest that you could do a multi-engine design.  So, I will sort of shoot in the dark here with a response that may or may not answer what you are looking for. 

You mention Nexus plans.  Nexus is located in England and has made available a large number of plans from various sources, like primarily Aeromodeller and Model Aircraft magazines and some of the British RC magazines.  Also listed by Nexus are plans from other RC plans services, again primarily from England.  Many of those CL scale plans in the Nexus listings were published as long ago as 50 years.  Some of those Aeromodeller plans are excellent though most will be on the small side.  Many of the Model Aircraft published plans are of more dubious quality, in my personal opinion, or in other words would make little more than some comparatively small sport scale designs.

First, there are few if any CL designs published of any decent electric powered scale design.  However, I have compiled a list of CL Scale design articles that have been published over the years.  The selections below are from my listing of twin CL scale designs.  Many of these plans are available from the AMA plans service.  I can attest that the plans sold by the AMA are first rate accurate duplicates of what was published and in many cases is the only source for these plans.  Plans would be available from the magazines for the more recent articles.

You asked about the Cleveland plans.   These were for stick and tissue models, though the wings could be sheeted and the fuselage/nacelles planked.  Their outline are very close to scale, but my be lacking good and accurate details.  If you are willing to start with something like the Cleveland plans, it would be just as easy to get a good set of 3-views, blow them up to the size you want and engineer your own design.

If you are looking for 3-views and reference material on any particular airplane, suggest you contact Bob Banka of Bob's Aircraft Documentation at

http://www.bobsairdoc.com

He has 40,000 three views and 8,000 color "Foto Paaks" that will have as many as 25 different photos.  Bob has a great collection and provides a great service.

(In no particular order:)

DeHavalland Hornet - Flying Models Jan, 2001, by Chuck Snyder (who frequents this board) Twin profile scale, 56 in span, sets the standard on how good a CL profile scale cam be.  Won Profile Scale at the 2000 Nats

Martin B-26 Model Airplane News, Aug 67, 53 inch span.  Fairly nice plans.

Martin B-26 , Model airplane News, Dec 2004  (This is an electric foam and balsa RC ship)  42 inch span, no LG details.

Heinkel 219, American Modeler, NovDec 64 by Walt Musciano.  One of Walt's better plans. a large model showed two Fox 59's.

Junkers Ju-88 by Roland Baltes, Model Builder Feb 1980, 65 inch span.  this Model was on the US scale team at least once.

P-38 by Clancy Arnold.  Model Aviation, Mar 86, 65 inch span.  Excellent details on drawings.

P-38 by Don Yearout.  Model Airplane News, Jun 65, 52 inch span.  Nicely done plans by an expert modeler.

P-38 by Jack Stolly, Model Aviation, Feb 88, super detailed plans, won Nats in 86, 55 inch span.

B-47D, Model Airplane news, May 58.  for twin 15's of this neat turboprop version of the B-47.  (Two full size airplanes were built.)

XB-35, Model Aviation, Jul 96.  RC, electric motors of this 4-engine pusher flying wing, 64 inch span.

Dornier Do 335, Flying Models, Feb/Mar 63.  Plans show a Fox 35 tractor and a Fox 19 pusher for his CL design, about a 41 inch span.  (More of a sport model than a serious scale project.)

P-61 Black Widow, Aeromodeller, Nov 70.  Smallish for two .15's. about a 50 inch span.

deHavilland Comet 88 by Ernest Violett.  Model Aviation, Oct 75.   Another nats winner.  Super drawings by a master craftsman. about 60 inch span

Focke Wulf Ta 154 by Marvin Martinez.  Model Airplane News, Nov 78,  Nice sport scale model of this attractive little known twin. two .35's

Avro Lancaster  Aeromodeller Oct 81 (?)  1/2 inch to the foot, 52 inch span,  for .09 or .10 engines  (actually four of the current .061's would fly this airplane nicely

this is by no means an exhaustive list.  It does show the twin engine construction articles that caught my attention over the years.

Thanks for taking the time to make an extensive reply. Very good info. I have indeed given thought to just doing my own from some of the Wylam and Nye plans I've been carting around for years, and that may be the way to go in the end. The Lindberg Sirius is one I've actually been thinking about, off and on, since I saw a really nice static model in the late 50s. Always liked the planes of the 30s, in fact I think the Sirius would make a really nice stand-off scale stunter, stretched just a little. At 60" it would have just about the right proportions and has a nice thick wing.

Sounds like you may have some experience getting plans enlarged. Do you just use a commercial copy center to do that, if so how much trouble is it to get them to hit the right size?

Both my P-38 that is listed above and was in the March 1986 Model Aviation and the De Havilland C-7A Caribou that received three NATS FAI Scale trophies were built to the 3-views that I received from the aircraft manufacturers.

I just had the P-38 drawings enlarged to the size I needed plus a pile of photographs of the prototype setting at the Indy Air Show.

The C-7A Caribou was built from enlarged three views and a bunch of photos taken at the Air Force Museum.  One thing that was not easy to determine was the spacing of the windows on the cargo area.  I had a picture taken at an angle that showed all of the windows so I projected that on a wall at a complimentary angle and cut the holes to match up to the projected image.

That is Jack Sheeks wading in the snow behind the Caribou.

This museum is in Reading, PA.  I was there a few years ago just after they uncrated the pieces.  the plane was recovered from the jungle around Borneo.  They said it had about 10 hours flight time on it when it crashed.

Plans I ordered from the National Air and Space Museum arrived yesterday. I'll have to say, that given the cost, they are a bit disappointing. I ordered the B-26 (Flak Bait), P-61 and Lindberg's Sirius.  Very little detail is shown, they are basically just outline drawings, and somewhat crude in spots (hand sketched). Would probably be OK for part of a scale document package, but little else. The Wylam, Matt and Nieto plans are substantially better.

Will try to post some pictures later.

BTW, what is (roughly) the largest practicle size and weight for a UC scale. Big is usually better, and I noticed in a listing of the world's winners that they seem to cluster around 10-12 lbs. That generates a lot of line force at 50 mph. I have personally seen a 9.5 foot B-36 and the guy used two hands for it -- don't know what it weighed.

John

The AMA rules for CL Scale weight and engine:
>>>>
2.6: Maximum total displacement of the engine(s) will not exceed 1.25 cubic inches. Electric motors of any size may be used to power the model. Fifty percent of the actual displacement of four (4) cycle engines shall be used for determining maximum displacements allowed, line sizes, and pull test requirements.
<<<<

That means you could get by with 2.5 cubes with a 4-stroker. Methinks the rulemakers are somewhat liberal with that 50% rule. Heck it was 60% way back before dirt when I flew CL. 
2.5 cube 4-stroker and teen #s could be a whale of a pull. NAH, not fer mine self!
