Bergfalke IV
Working drawings in PDF format along with over 150 construction photos.
Due to popular demand, I’m making the working drawings for my downsized Bergfalke IV which was the subject of a couple of articles here in the New RC Soaring Digest (see Resources, below). There are three PDFs that make up the entire set: the wings (0.6MB), the fuselage (0.7MB) and then a whole series of auxiliary drawings (1.4MB). You can tap any of the constructions photos for a larger, more detailed image. I have also provided unique numbers for each photo so you can reference them if you have any specific questions.
While I have taken reasonable care in preparing these, they are provided as-is, where-is with no warranty.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to add them in the Responses section below (click the little ‘speech bubble’) and I’ll do my best to answer them. Don’t forget to add the reference numbers if your question relates to one of the construction photos. Good luck with your downsized Bergfalke project!

It has long been a favourite of mine, and three Bergfalke I’s and three Bergfalke IV’s bring us to the current version. As an OAP, I have found my designs becoming smaller over time, which is why this one is scaled to a very convenient 1:4.7-scale…”
