This auction is for a very good quality reprint of the 'Ezy Jet' full size model building plan that originally appeared in the April 2000 issue of Aviation Modeller International magazine.
Ezy-Jet is a EDF jet trainer for a speed 400 motor mounted in a Graupner ducted fan unit mounted above the fuselage. to allow comparatively slow-speed replication of the flight characteristics of high-performance model jets.
The Ezy-Jet model has a 31" (787mm) wingspan and a simple and very narrow body and easy-to-build flat-bottomed wings - the plan showing alternative 'short' and 'long' versions of the wings to enable the builder to alter the flight characteristics of the model as their flying skills improve.In addition, the plan shows two alternative control systems for the model, with details for both an "aileron" version and a "rudder/elevator" version shown.
Construction is almost entirely from balsa sheet, mostly 2mm & 3mm, although the plan suggests Liteply skinning as an alternative. The plan shows installation details for RC equipment and the motor speed controller and batteries (7-off 700mAh or 9-off 500mAh Nicad cells recommended).
To summarize, Ezy-Jet is simultaneously both a comparatively simple and quick-to-build model but also one which will allow the budding jet pilot to learn initial flying techniques but also to then experiment and adapt the model itself to change it's characteristics and thus broaden their experience further
The plan reprint is printed on a single sheet and will be sent to you by post folded in an A4-size envelope
