First off, this isn't your normal thread asking where can I get the Launch plan pack.
I've already got it, and am wondering if anyone else whom has it has come up with a proper list of parts to build it. The Plan Pack doesn't give tube dimensions (yes, it gives length of tube, but not MM/inch sizes, or even a proper part # equivalent would be nice), or really anything that would make it easy to order the proper parts from a vendor.
Ideally, I'd like to build this kit, with the purpose to set the foundation for a larger design - nowhere as big as Wedges monster, but perhaps 6 feet in heigth.
Does anyone have this information available ?
Secondly, my reasons for wanting this information is so I can do a proper scale drawing of it, complete with all the information that I believe needs to be made available. I.E. - cross sections of various crucial segments, end views with important data etc.
Lastly, a proper set of markings that can be created so that Decals could be made from it, and also including several views to help a scale creation to look correct - since the decals alone on this beast are mind-numbing.
Pete Alway does have a couple drawings on his site, and with the Dorffler collection and about 400 other images I have, I believe I have enough to make a serious scale drawing a reality.
For those of you familiar with my DMF3-Delta 3 - I see this one being on the same scale for detail and the like.
Hopefully I can make this a reality.
Cheers,
