Printed 1/72 drawings of the CAC C-6 Wackett trainer as my contribution to the RAAF 100th Anniversary cook up. Details will be posted here with milestones posted to the cook up.

Wikipedia lists the Warner Scarab 175hp as the powerplant for the Wackett. Internet search can't find any listing for a 175hp Scarab. Can anyone help me out?
Lou
Google "wackett trainer drawings" images should pick drawings from dbdesignbureau . Has an engine them.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Gordon
The design bureau site says Warner Scarab 165D. http://dbdesignbureau.buckmasterfamily.id.au/drawings_cac_wackett.htm (http://dbdesignbureau.buckmasterfamily.id.au/drawings_cac_wackett.htm)
Wikipedia may have been wrong, which has been known to happen.
The Wackett has begun with major component blocks cut.

The Wackett is quite small and relatively easy to build.
Lou
Cool little plane. Might have to carve one for myself one of these days...
In the paint shop for primer. Quite small even when compared to the 1/144 Stratoliner. (See Boeing 307 build)
Lou
Looking great Lou.
Gordon

Undercarriage attached and ready for the paint booth.
