kc Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 (edited) Peggy Sue 2 seems to have been a free plan in RCME April 2018 but does not seem to be available from Sarik as one would expect. Peggy Sue ( the smaller original not 2 ) is available on Outerzone but should be commercially available from Doolittle Media as it was an Aviation Modeller Int plan.

Piers Bowlan Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 As Ron says, SLEC will have the cutting files for Peggy Sue 2 and would be able to produce a cnc parts set (at a price). Probably get a better price if, say, 10 people were serious about buying a set? T(Count me in) They will sell you a plan too, no doubt. Incidentally, I have a copy of the plan, so I could scan a copy and email it to anyone who needed one if they were stuck ( and Peter didn’t mind). I am surprised Sarik didn’t offer a plan and parts set when the plan was published back in 2018. Such a neat design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piers Bowlan Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 (edited) I was assuming Peter owned the copyright and why I said ‘and Peter didn’t mind.’ Good point Ron, SLEC or RCM&E may now own the copyright. I have no idea but a shame if the plan was not widely available. Edited December 19, 2022 by Piers Bowlan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Gray Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 @Piers Bowlan if you have the plan there should be a copyright notice on it somewhere which will tell you who now owns it. This is taken from the April 2018 mag and shows the basic construction of PS2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Gray Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) I’ll start a new Mass Build 2023 - Hanky Planky thread with my foamy version. Do you want another thread for ditto for Peggy Sue 2, my build shows the mods I made to make it electric.

Nick Cripps Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Hanky Planky? I've got one of those... except Nigel Hawes called it the "Smart Dart" 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) I note that the cutaway picture from RCME of Peggy Sue 2 ( TWO) shown today says it's 48 inch span which seems incorrect -it says 58 inch on Peters build thread and I remember the plan was around that size. So everybody needs to decide what size Peggy they will build - 58 inch is the Peggy Sue 2 while the original AMI plan was 50 inch approx .

Geoff S Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I remember at the time Peggy Sue 2 was published I queried the ws and Peter confirmed that it is 58" (approx 1.5m). I was attracted to it at the time because 1.5m is my sweet spot for model size. I threw away a large number of RCMEs about 3 weeks ago because they were taking over my desk. Fortunately, the July 2018 issue was amongst the few I saved so I'm newly tempted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff S Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I can't find Peggy Sue 2 plans, let alone CNC parts, on Sarik's website, so a PDF would help. The magazine drawing I have is in mint condition but free plans don't always stand up well to a build - particularly as they're double sided.

SLEC are in the middle of a stock take which is delaying a response to my enquiries as to the number of Peggy Sue 2 cut parts they have left from when they produced them for RCM&E. The plan from SLEC is on two separate sheets. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarlyBird Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 It looks like I may have bought the last cut parts from SLEC. They will print more plans and cut parts I believe. The only way to find out is to email Chris, remember it's silly season and they are in the middle of a stock take so I hope no one is in a rush. I have asked if they will supply all the wood and hardware and what the prices are. Once I get a reply I will let you know. In the mean time I am studying the plan and resisting the temptation to open the cut parts. Thanks to Peter you all can study the pdf.

Geoff S Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Not sure if it's worth buying the CNC parts if you already have balsa (or a substitute) in stock. Most of the ribs have an identical outline with different cut-outs depending on their location and the fuselage formers have very simple outlines. I have the PDF courtesy of Peter Miller (what a gent!) as well as the magazine drawing so I may well start a build next month. It'll be electric so some deviation from the plan - I don't think I've ever built anything exactly to the drawing since I built my trainer 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarlyBird Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 I have just had confirmation from SLEC that they will print the plan and cut new parts. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
