Product information

TRIPEHOUND - Plan or Full Plan Pack  (Redrawn/updated 2022)

This has been updated using CAD to redaw the parts which makes them more accurate and there are also more parts included to make it closer to a full kit. The plan and parts are still as per the original but CAD redrawing will make for an even better fit and finish.  It's not a complete kit so you will still need to supply some parts (but not many!) and accessories to complete.

A semi-scale Fokker tri-plane - always attracts interest, and pleasant to build, especially if you like building wings.
The full plan pack contains the plan along with all additional components listed below

Feedback and photos from Mike Wyatt South Africa.

Two years ago I purchased the plans for Tripehound and promised you that I would send you a better pic when I had built it.
She had her maiden flight yesterday, and flies magnificently.
Herewith a couple of snaps.

You'll notice that I braced the cabane struts and also servos in both middle and upper wings. She is powered by an OS .61 which provides more than enough oomph.
