Ben Buckle Plan Sets
|
Here you'll find the plans for Ben Buckle old timer kits. These are hand drawn, "blue print drawings" . Note, there are often variations in Old-Timer plans. Remember, these designs are from the 30's and 40's and may or may not match with the first ever publication of a model. Often models were published or built in several different sizes. The wingspan is given to help you match up what your looking for. These are the same plan sets you'd get with a Ben Buckle kit and they do their best to reproduce a historically correct model. All plan sets will be shipped gently folded as received from Ben Buckle. |

Ben Buckle Vintage Plan SetsVintage free-flight and early radio designs remain popular building subjects, and this category collects Ben Buckle vintage plan sets that document those classic models. Each set provides the drawings a builder works from when constructing the airframe from scratch. Classic Trainers and Sport ModelsThe line includes long-running designs such as the Super 60 in a 3 channel, 60 inch wingspan form, along with the Junior 60 and an electric version of the Junior 60. These gentle designs have introduced many builders to traditional construction, and their forgiving flight characteristics make them a comfortable return to the hobby. Larger and Named DesignsBigger and more distinctive subjects appear as well, including the Record Breaker at 96 inch wingspan, the Standard Buccaneer, and the Flying Quaker. The wider span suits builders looking for a stable, slow-flying model with plenty of presence in the air. Browse the plan sets here to choose a vintage design to build from the board up. |
