I'm glad they tried to make the YF-19 and SV-51 into models, its something different than the VF-1 always.  I zoned out a couple pages in, did it say they got the SV to fly?

yes they did get the SV to fly.... now it's a matter of adding the "looks"

LOLOLOL... Wow.. my model got around I see.   Dang.. I want one now.

Hmm... Wonder if the original source model would help them.

Hey Chrono... I'm the one that made the model available for the guys at RCGroups... you gave it to me a long time ago because I told I was going to see if I could get anyone to make a flying version... I've successfully gotten a freeflight hand-tossed glider to fly very well... but the guys there at the forum are way more skilled than I am at powered, controlled flight...

there are several software programs they are using (Rhino, 3DS, etc) in conjunction with CNC cutters and plain ole' ingenuity... maybe you COULD help out...

that would be so cool....

Has anyone seen this software? http://www.tamasoft.co.jp/pepakura-en/

it allows you to take 3DS models and import them to make papercraft models...

if anyone has a 3DS model of a YF-19 or VF-11 they could email me I would appreciate it...

in the meantime..there are a couple robots on the main page to download

edit**

I just read that it accepts DXF files as well....!!

Just found out that it works with DXF, LWO, OBJ, and MQO files as well

The search continues...

BTW... anyone know where I can get a paper model book or a paper model of any Valkyries?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=5943627088how about this one from blackaces?

Noel

That's the one... but 40 beans for ONE model PLUS $12.50 S&H...wow!..I'll have to think about that one.....

so you went to frank and sons and didn't find what you were looking for? What exactly are you looking for?

OOps.. I went to Kunikuniya Bookstore and they didn't have anything....

Most people use light card stock... but photo paper works sometimes too... if you want a little gloss to the model

edit: Dude.. I just looked at the fixed links.... and that's the exact one I was looking for.....thanks!!!!

There ARE instructions on the colored Valk... on the Fighter...they are on the last page...and on the Gerwalk...there are assembly drawings on each page.....

BTW on the Gerwalk....file #1 and #3 are identical....(mistake)...LOL basically there are no legs...LOL

ok Thanks... I go there all the time...no Macross but good nonetheless... I get my Japanese RC car magazines there...

I'll check with them and see what they can do... I know where I can get a couple of things.. I'm just trying to expand my resources

Hey now! Welcome to MacrossWorld, akura2. Your best bet for books and stationary is the Kinokuniya Bookstore in downtown. Get all your Frank & Son info here. Good luck.

I went today and they had no Macross... they had a bunch of other stuff thatw as pretty cool.. but not quite what I was looking for...thanks though

The search continues...

BTW... anyone know where I can get a paper model book or a paper model of any Valkyries?

I tried a couple of links that were supposed to have that stuff... but they've BEEN dead like this one.....----->http://www.strikebbs.host.sk/papermodel.html

That's the plain white one I have....thanks for the other links

Edit:... those links to the "colored Valk" and "fastpack" are wrong.... they are the same white valkyrie...

They are all this link http://members.cox.net/richter4/macross/images.zip with different names

Wow... nice!... i love the natural lighting effect

I'm trying to find a paper model of a Valkyrie.

I've seen links point to them but none of the links work... I have the plain white homemade one that's been posted... but the plans are pretty choppy-looking.... the one I'm loking for is the full color one from here --->http://www.strikebbs.host.sk/papermodel.html or ANY models from that site

Where are THEY located?

Now I have to go all the way to Torrance for my Japanese RC magazines...b/c Kinokuniya doesn't carry them... but I'm going to run down there tomorrow or later today to see if they have anything.... I'm looking for paper models as well

(I'm working on making a flying VF-19 or VF-4 out of Depron foam and I need the paper model to scale some parts up from)

Thanks... I used to go downtown to those bookstores all the time until they all closed...... Kinokuniya is the last one left down there.....

They have Sushi in Japan?!?!?!?....LOL

Thanks... I'll check them out

edit:.. I looked through the thread but I can't find what and where Frank & Sons is... I've purchased from tisinc99 before... but this F&S everyone is talking about seems to be a gathering of different dealers.....

help

Anything????

books, models...stationary

Yea ...Chrono did an awesome job.... all I need now is the VF-4....

anyone...anyone... Bueller?

Thank so much... if we get anything flying I'll be sure to post it

DXF and DWG files...if you could do that... it would be great!!

and if you know someone with the VF-4...that would be even better!!

as that would be a more flyable plane

it's going to be for an RC version....at least a 30" wingspan... so pretty high res... if you send it as a JPG that will fill an 11x17 sheet...that will be fine.... and line drawings will work... it's going into TurboCAD for the plans and tweaking to make flyable, so whatever you've got would be great...

BTW great-looking 19!!

and thanks.

BTW... if you know of anyone who has the VF-4...that would be great too...

this is the type of thing I'm looking for... but in higher res...

I'm new here... and a lot of these threads are really long...

but can anyone sirect me to where I can find side, front, top and maybe bottom views/line drawings/schematics for a VF-19 or VF-9?

I'm in from another forum and I'm trying to build a real flying RC version out of Depron sheet foam....so i need these views to draw up plans....

Thanks

Jimmy

Something like this... but I need a front view as well
