            Hales FrogFlite/Yeoman Quick Build all balsa sheet models

            The models in this section represent reproductions of the old Hales FrogFlite/Yeoman series models. This series of models is similar to those presented in the Top Flite Jigtime, Goldberg, and Kiel Kraft EzEeBilt model series. They were die cut balsa models with color and markings pre applied. Like the Goldberg and Kiel Kraft models, the amount of color was limited so all of the models presented as reproductions have had the color enhanced to better represent the box art of each kit. Many thanks go to Daniel Müller for providing all of the material necessary to develop this group of reproduction drawing packages.


            The models shown here along with the plan packages are a best attempt to reproduce the original series in their original form. Each plan package includes a scan of the original kit plan along with some building notes. All of the plans are in the Adobe PDF format. Each package contains multiple pages that are printed on U.S. legal size paper (8.5" x 14"). A link is provided with each model description to download the associated plan package.


            WHEN PRINTING MAKE SURE THAT PRINT SCALING HAS BEEN TURNED OFF.

            A description of the method I use to print the parts directly on balsa is provided here. Just click on the link.


            NOTE - A very good alternative to printing the parts for these models directly on balsa it to use T-shirt iron-on transfer paper. This material comes in 8 1/2" x 11" sheet size and works very well for transferring the drawn parts to balsa. A summary of the process for doing this is covered here. The major advantage of using this process is any printer can be used. To make it a bit easier to use iron-on transfer paper to create the full color parts for these models an alternate parts drawing package is provided. This drawing package has been laid out for 8 1/2" x 11" and for A4 sheets. A link to the iron-on transfer packages is provided in each model section of this page.


            If you have access to a 3D printer, you will find some 3D print files for propellers here. The 6 1/2" or 7" prop are well suited for these models.

            Piper Pacer

            External link opens in new tab or window

            The Piper Pacer completes this series of models from FrogFlite. The markings are those of the original kit. These markings seem a bit odd for a Piper Pacer. Color was added where the original kit had bare balsa. The model has a wing span of 16".


            Because the markings used for the kit Piper Pacer seem rather odd for this aircraft, an alternate plan package was prepared using more traditional markings. The markings for this package are based on an actual Piper Pacer.


            The Piper Pacer plan includes information on building the model as a Tri-Pacer. To help make building that version a bit easier, a separate plan package was developed. More traditional markings were used based on an actual Tri-Pacer.
