Looking for Telemaster 40 plans
 

Howdy gents!I'm presently looking for plans for the Telemaster 40.I want to build a club trainer plane to help train some younger kids that other hands wouldn't have the opportunity to try out our wonderful hobby.I have flown many trainers over the years but the Telemaster 40 has always been my favorite for training.Just love that lifting stab .One of the best trainers ever designed IMO.
I've trained many people over the years but there is nothing that compares to that look of excitement on a youngsters face when you hand him over the controls of a R/C plane and tell him "it's all yours!"(buddy boxed of course).They just grin from ear to ear!I would have loved to have had the opportunity to "wiggle the sticks" when I was a kid and I haven't fortgot that.I had to wait quite a few years before that actually happened for me.I want to give them that opportunity and hopefully leave a favorable impression upon them about what R/C is all about and that will hopefully have a spin off effect that will have them and there friends coming back for more.I feel that many positives will spring from this experience.From good P/R with the public to a simple smile on a childs face........that's good enough for me! Positive things spring from positive actions!

I hope someone can help me out.Original plans still in reasonable shape or a clone even would suffice.As long as it's still close to the original scale.I aint picky if it's off by a 1/8" or not.As long as it helps me accomplish this goal.
Cheers! :cheers:

I believe I still have mine from WAY back in 1986 or 87 when I built it....

Let me have a look, if I still have them you can have them for free...

That would be very much appreciated Andrew.Thank you very kindly for responding to my post. :wink: :thanks:
Cheers!

Mark,
I found them!! WOw, a lot of plans to go through... :)

It brought back memories... I bought that Tele 40 kit from Skycraft Hobbies when I was in grade 12, back in the winter of 87/88. I remember the day I got it like it was yesterday... I was out cross country skiing with my school, and when I got home I was pretty sick with a cold. I saw the big box and allmost went insane! I remember starting to build it that night, even though I was feverish and my mom was telling me to get to bed... :)

I flew that plane believe it or not, with an old 1957 vintage K&B Green head Torpedo, that I fitted an OS rc carb to. It wasnt overly powerfull but it flew that Tele just fine for me, I was pretty raw at RC flying at that point.

Ahh, memories... the plans are in great shape. Send me your address and I will mail them out.

Hi Andrew.That's cool man! :wink: I sent you a PM with all of the necessary info. :)

Yeah,come to think of it,I use to deal a lot with Skycraft Hobbies back during those same years also.I think I had one of their BIG catalogues at one time to.It was like a bible to me when ever I was building something and needed to know what was available to finish the job.Sure came in real handy. :lol: That and the Tower Hobbies catalogue were my two greatest resources for R/C info.

Thanks again Andrew for your help.Very much appreciated sir! :wink:

Cheers! :cheers:
