    Default 152 VO 1/5.2 scale plans?

    I've just discovered the 152 VO vintage outboards! Very cool models, and I'd like to build some. Does anyone know where I can get plans for the 1/5.2 scale vintage outboard racers? I'd like to get plans for the Spitfire, FooLing, Corsair M-510, Saucy Shingle, and Kelly Wetback. I found the 152.de website and tried to register with no success - no moderator ever approved my registration. The 152.de website has plans but you can't access them without registering. Hopefully there is another source.

    I don't know anything about rc boats, but it would be fun to see some of your pictures of them, as well as the boats in action.

    I've tried three times but I've never received a reply back from the moderator telling me my account has been activated. Until that happens I am unable to use the 152vo.de website. There is no email contact shown on the website so I don't know who to contact to tell them what my problem is.

    Default 152VO Plans

    Hans69,

    Do you have a source for the 152VO plans that are on the 152vo.de website? I want to get plans for the Spitfire; FooLing; Corsair M-510; Saucy Shingle; and Kelly Wetback. I'm hoping plans at 1/5.2 scale already exist for these boats.
