Blue Flash Materials List And Cutting Guide

The July 2007 issue of Fly RC contains a free pull out plan for the Blue Flash, a glow powered .25-.40 size sport flyer.

The classic lines are augmented with traditional balsa construction, along with a modern airfoil and flaps for fun at the field. The following materials list and this downloadable cutting guide (PDF format) will help your plans building efforts. Please contact editors@flyrc.com with any questions.
