Is it worth me buying them at £35 or could I suss most of it out myself? ( having built 5 real size 7's)
Just how comprehensive are they and how detailed are the plans. I would hate to purchase a couple of poorly photocopied pages stuck together.

To be honest you could easily figure it out yourself - I suspect it will be the same script as for a full size Locust or Hornet ie what you'd get for your money would be a set of full size paper templates for the mdf tub and a bit of a build manual which is all mostly common sense to be honest

Cant see the problem... Take Mc Sorley Plans and divide everything by 4.

Shouldnt be too hard. Especially if you have already built 5 Se7ens already.

D Beddows is just about spot on, the main bit is the full size plans to cut the ply or mdf the rest is common sense really.
If you've build a full size one, this should'nt be a problem.
I only got them as they came with a unfinished project with the grp
