Well, it's been six months so I figured it was time to get updating. :D I've started adding new plans and publications to the website. There's still a lot more to go, but I had to start somewhere. ;) Many of you may be interested in the Centuri Defender plans I now have online thanks to Joe Spiegel. I also have the Coaster publications posted that Larry Rice sent me. I now have plans from twenty six different companies online, with more on the way.

I'll bet Carl has a lot, if not all of the parts available, too. ;)

I thought some of you might like that one. I have such a backlog here that I had forgotten all about Joe sending that one to me in the Spring.

Scott

Of course I grabbed the Defender plans right away :)

The Coaster publications are very, very interesting too.

I still haven't checked out the transition template maker from your last upload. There is such a wealth of information on the site. Many thanks to you and to all who have contributed such valuable information for all of us to enjoy :D

This plan is EXACTLY what I've been waiting for !
A perfect complement to the Semroc Recruiter.
Carl has all of those parts available at Semroc except the decal.
I just placed my order ! :D :p :D

*Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....* Huh, wha???? Oh yea. Plans.....

OK, I'll start gathering everything together. I have a few other projects to complete first, but it shouldn't take too long.

Scott, that Defender looks really cool!!

And but, not that Quest has been around all that long, but how come no one has any Quest plans or instructions posted online?

You'll want to look at what I all posted. I processed many of the new submissions myself.

Well, until fairly recently they really hadn't discontinued anything. They've now discontinued quite a few kits. I'll ask Bill Stine if it's ok for me to post his discontinued kits.

still at it... now we're gonna start to worry about you , Scott :D

some long-awaited plans up there, too ( Astrobee, for one, although I built mine last fall after the thread here on YORF ).

one note on your plans - you have the Asteroid Explorer posted ( One I've always wanted, and was missing for a long time), but no fin patterns.

However...... the fins are identical to the 0864 Spartan, that you * DO * have posted.

If you check the instruction sheets on BOTH it shows the fin sheet as part # 0864/1386.

so, you could just either note same, or just reuse the scan of the Spartan fins:)

Scott,

I was wondering if you ever got the scan of the Estes fin templates #PP-3 that I sent?

I never got a response back to my email so it leads me to think that you never got them.

I just put the KosRox Apollo Pad Abort Test Capsule plans up on YORP. The big difference between what I have online and what Damian's old site has online is that Damian sent me the files for the printed wraps, which aren't on his site. Have at it!
