The Engine is from RC Dhamaka. One of the most reliable LHS I have come across. RCD You rock. Reached me today neatly packed. posting photgraphs of the Engine.
The plan is from this site.

SuperPacer A very nice design by Owen Kampen. .15 to a .28 appropriate for this great flyer. Never published, kitted by Ace. This plan is another fine CAD to multipage pdf effort by Gene Rock.
God I wish Someone can Laser cut this plan for me.
If Someone can suggest me a better plan or model most welcome
Sandy boss, check out Richard's store:

I bought a Cessna Laser cut kit from them; good service. Also, Ali has an escrow system: the supplier does not get paid till you receive
They have more kits
The pacer is absolutely wonderful - very quick and capable
of traditional aerobatics.
None of the ugly 3D manouvers however
Thanks Sanjay sir those are some nice kits. would definitely pick up some.
Ugly 3D Manouvers ?!!!!! Saikat Da :giggle: ;) I am in complete agreement with Ugly Part. Though Gusty may not like it ;D

Gusty
Please add another >:D to make it 3 D(evils)!
That is the best intended pun ever, 3 x greater than semicolan Ds...:rofl: >:D >:D >:D
Sir i am a beginner but if i were to scratch build a sport plane or an old school(read old's cool) 3d kind of plane it would be this..

I don't know if a .25 would be an apropriate engine but scaling it would solve that and Here is a link to the same plan with a scale added to the plan...

Thanks Rahul those are nice plans
Sanjay Sir,
Compared Aliexpress and HK I think at par not much difference. I have ordered this Cloud Dancer too now from HK for 60.01$ including shipping. Aliexpress too was also working out to 60$ for P-40.
(https://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/catalog/ELE%20-%2029301-pic-2.jpg)
Lets see which one gets made sooner I will mount my OS FS-30 on the cloud dancer if Superpacer works out fine.
Great Sandy! I also bought a Cloud Dancer but have to start; ie have to crash some models to make space! :rofl: :rofl:
BTW, I think a .25 will be overkill for the Cloud Dancer. The reccomended is a 3536 - 950 KV, about a .15~.20
Sir, I read some of the review of people who have used with 0.25 in HK so planning ahead with it.
I have today received the Cloud Dancer from HK In excellent condition. I think I will right away build it before the Super Pacer. It has got some very sturdy undercarriage. Wheels are huge and very light foam wheels and the Undercarriage very strong wire one with steerable nose setup. It can take on the OS FS 30 if the firewall is properly reinforced.
Mubarak! Build, build, build!
This time the instructions seem to make sense
Yes with detailed photographic representation of build procss.
what covering you are planning to go with?
Covering film from RCD

All alone in jalandhar. Commenced the long pending Cloud Dancer for now.
Update on progress till now
Looking real good {:)} (:|~
Sandy Bhai, the enforced bachelor, doing all justice to his free time!
Thank you Sanjay sir, VC Dada.
Some more fininshing strengthening balsa work is balance on wing on fuse for engine mount.
Complete dry fit check before covering and mounting of engine and accessories. Has come out pretty good so far.

Is that your office sir
Yes that was in my office in shillong. Now no longer.
So sad
Why sad Nitesh its all part of live. Great thing is you get to see new new place every three years meet new people and make some more friends.
Thats the right spirit sir
Complete dry fit with under carriage and engine mount fitted after reinforcement.
Dry fit engine mounted.
Tail feathers hinged and covered. Servos installed with push rods in sleeve in place.
Ailerons hinged. Wings covered
After quick successful maiden back in the hanger safe and sound for final very minor trim and adjustments. :) Glow plug changed now. Super flier. Real floater. Takes off in just two meters run up. Real agile flier.
Super!!! Many congratulations
Waiting for the video :D
Thanks sir. next time surely. Glow plug was giving problem. Low RPM was not consistent after booster removed. On low throttle had a dead stick & had to land immediate after quick flight.
Too Much Nitro with the Fuel which I realized.
Nitro was freely sourced from Gusty ;) :giggle: :giggle: I believe I added little bit extra as it was freely available. With the previous Nitro Rich mixture completely expended and now with fresh fuel with only 1% Nitro the Engine is firing consistently. Further now that the power boost is also missing the Model is now flying level in WOT not trying to do an unlimited vertical like earlier ;D.
Even the Exhaust Muffler on 0.15 ASP Hornet on Stick Laser was chocked with a black carbon like soot with drop in power and HS needle turns reducing progressively due to more pressure on fuel pressure line due to chocking of exhaust.
Now no more free Nitro from Gusty. :'( :'( ;D
Could you please tell me where is the fuel tank? I can't see it on the pictures. Ty
Apologies for the late reply. Earlier I had mounted fuel tank behind the servo tray but I had frequent running/tuning issues. Now I have mounted a Sulivan flex 110 ml right at the front just behind the engine firewall inside the front triangular space.
