Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE I AM NOT SELLING A KIT, only new, full-size copies of my original PLANS & PARTS PATTERNS for the ACE HIGH MK II RC sailplane that requires 2 ACE foam wings. TO BUILD A MODEL, YOU WILL NEED A SET OF CONSTANT CHORD & A SET OF TAPERED ACE FOAM WING PANELS. MY LAST TWO PICTURES SHOW THE BOX LABELS OF ACE FOAM WING SETS THAT APPEAR AT TIMES ON EBAY. I DO NOT PROVIDE FOAM WINGS WITH THESE PLANS & PARTS PATTERNS. Flying my vintage ACE HIGH 72" span, single-channel RC glider that used a Cox Baby Bee on a power pod was one really relaxing way to spend an afternoon. I still have the model in my workshop because it is ready to go after all these years. You can see my old red & white, monokote-covered wing with a power pod in picture #5 placed over these MARK II kit plans and parts patterns. All you have to do to make yourself a complete, excellent, fun-flying glider is use the patterns sheet to cut out the parts and glue it all together. I include a copy of the ACE instruction sheet that was always included in ACE kits. It details how to assemble their foam wing sections, how to add trailing edge strips, as well as applying the traditional strapping tape from tip to tip to give the foam wing the necessary rigidity and strength for long-time service. This plan is for the updated MK II version of the great old ACE HIGH and is updated to a 2-channel RC. It may be stronger & likely will last longer than the vintage ACE HIGH model. Yet I did not find any problem at all with my original model's durability. That's why I have kept it all these years. As a BONUS I include an interesting bio of designer Owen Kampen. A little known fact is Kampen’s ex-wife authored the book that inspired “The Lucy Show.” IT IS EASY TO ADD ELECTRIC POWER ON THE POWER POD. I HAVE ADDED A PICTURE OF SUCH A SETUP FROM MY FRIEND GERALD BAILY WHO USED AN ELECTRIC PUSHER SETUP WITH A FOLDING PROPELLER ON HIS SAILPLANE. THANKS, GERALD, FOR SHARING WITH US. MY COMPLETED RED AND WHITE FOAM WINGS WITH A GAS POWER POD THAT IS SHOWN IN PICTURE #5 IS NOT FOR SALE. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
