Builder's Manuals
Has anyone found it useful to purchase or download a later Series manual to see what updates could be applied to an earlier kit? For example, would it be worthwhile to have a Supersport manual when building a Series 5? It might show what parts are available prefabricated, where in the earlier kit, more fabrication had to be done, or it might show a better way to do something as new series built on the experience of earlier designs.

I don't know if you are still waiting for or received an answer somewhere else? I just read your post and was wondering the same thing. Some parts of my manual are missing and I was curious about your downloading comment in your post. Can we download manual parts somewhere? Dave, Cincinnati

Hi,
Good point, didn 't think of it yet. Now I'm building a IV, and you've got a 5 - isn't there a way that I can get a copy of your manual?

Hans, I don't think that would ba advisable. Mine being a 5 and yours a 4 could cause a lot of problems for you and guilt for me. If it caused you difficulty with measurements and important details that are different between models.

Re: Builder's Manuals
John, That's what I was trying to say in my post. I paid for my plans when I purchased my kit from one of your previous builders. I have a set of helicopter plans that I will not copy. They are for sale, but not to copy. It is not fair to the designer / manufacturer. I am still new to the Kitfox family and I didn't know if Kitfox did not have such a pay as you go service. I would be interested in a manual "service" that could be administered by Kitfox. I also understand it is a big job to keep such a webpage updated. The biggest appeal for me is when I look through plans it is so easy to do a search for just the right page as opposed to paging through. Don't get me wrong. I am a firm believer in the printed assembly manual. It's just some times very convenient electronically.
