Plans for the Tissan Cricket?
batjac Sun Mar 12, 2023 5:33 pm
I am familiar with the Tissan Haifa Banana RC plane, mainly through Bernie selling them a while back. I just learned today that Tissan also sold a CL kit called the Cricket. Does anyone have plans? An internet search only showed a RCG thread (here) on a Cricket built a few years ago. The thread had a picture of the plans, but the picture was taken at an angle. I could probably build a plane from that picture, but I'd prefer an accurate plan to build off of if possible.

Okay, some digging on a Tissan Banana webpage found this picture. It' almost straight down, so I can work from them. However, I do not know the correct wingspan. Can anyone read this plan and tell me what the wingspan is?

Based on this image and using the inch markers on the cutting pad, my best guess is approximately 23".

I've got a set...can you give me some time to digitize? Or I can simply mark up the main dimensions and call them out. This may take a few days.

Jim,
No big hurry. I feel like I need something else for S.M.A.L.L., and a Tissan Cricket would probably be something that no one else there would have. I'll PM you my email address.

I've built a number of them over the years and still have a NIB kit, also have a number of blueprints laying around.

Super,
Thanks for the information. I should be able to knock one out real quick. I'm a Monokote guy, since I can't do dope in my house.

I'm still looking. I know I have this someplace...and feel like I saw it a few months back. I'll admit this is prompting a hobby closet clean-up.

I think this plane looks a lot like a Stuntman 23 , it has the wing and elevator /stabilizer as it does. How does the plane fly or did I miss that ?

Yes...I found the copy provided to me by Super several years back!
The prop is right at 5-7/8". WS is 22-3/4", wing root is 5-7/8", stab/elevator hinge line is 9-3/4", stab root is 1-5/16", and levator "root" is 1-3/8".
More to follow later.
