Hi, guys
Anybody knows about a paper model of the famous Burt Rutan Voyager? I think it was a paper model... |

I was designing one back a long time ago, in a healthier world for me. For me, the wings were difficult to get looking correct. Later, when I wrote Rutan to obtain so additional information regarding the craft, I got a fairly cold response when I mentioned I was designing a card stock model of the aircraft. But medical problems has stopped my continuation of the work.
Then there was the simple mode which came from a book called (IIRC), Wings of Adventure, by Andrew Dewar. It was pre-cut and had a wingspan about 16 inches. I gave the book to my nephew...what he has done with it I have no idea. 8v)

Somewhere I actually have a 3-view of the Voyager that someone at Scaled Composites sent me. I'll have to dig it up. Bug me about via email or PM and I might be able to find it quickly...

I would love to see more Rutan planes in paper.
FG has the AD-1 "Oblique Wing" available. There's a nice odd plane Has any one seen paper models of the SpaceShipTwo or White Knight Two yet? |

I have the Rutan Quickie model almost ready for release (B&W files are finished) The only problem is, I can't find good pictures of the little beastie.
What I want to ask is if anybody owns one, or knows somebody how owns one, can send me pictures of it from every possible angle; focusing on markings, panel lines and other such sundry stuff. I'd greatly appreciate it. This is gonna be my first for sale model, I'm just still working on how to sell it. |

I actually just talked to Scaled Composites about line drawings. They are supposed to get back to me. I won't be building anything from them for quite a while. You should get a lot of interest. He is adored in the aviation community, my respect for him is great. Real American heroes, that don't involve a ball, bat, ellipsoid ball, beating anyone up, just guts, brains, and glory. Great subject to work explore. Great choice! |
