It looks that way, but it's just how it ends up when all the parts are together you end up with a sort of flare effect, but they are one and the same tube

even with my own scratch build it has that flared look, I used screen shots to do all my templates and some measurements from Raf as well, keep looking at screen shots as I find that is always helpful.
good luck as I know from my first build was a big challenge, and as I thought it looked good, it ended up in the fire after my current make.

is there any problem with making the pack and then later once I have the frame and the back panel and then cut the brackets in to the jet pack and hide the attachments????
Keep it light! and if you are using the original style harness to go with the pack pay close attention to where the hooks go

You could do them last if you wanted I guess.
Question the spot where the top "deck" of the jetpack meets the vertical pack of the pack is it supposed to be a sharp angle there or an eased fillet there?
I've seen pictures going either way. anyone chime in on a 501 point of view?
if it is to be eased anyone have a good idea of how to do so and keep it light? thinking putting that much bondo will make it heavy.

Hey guys,
i got some big sizing issues....
first there is the Letter to A4 problem...after a while it seems to be okay for me. I have to print everything "split to multiple pages" and scale at "66,2%".
Now that i've lost every faith in myself i have an idiot question....just to make sure!
If we talk about 15" to 17" jetpack size (43cm in my case) we talk about these measurement, right?!
Top not bottom

And here's the result. The pattern really helped me out here. Thanks very much for that.

Hi, I'm new to builds and a little confused with some of the blu prints and what goes where. The green dotted lines mean what?
When you look on the bottom overhead, it shows box like bottom with a shaped centre gap, how do you make that?
How do you make the bottom (goes to back) have the different levels? What goes between the bottom (back part) leading to the Middle circar jet. On the over head look it looks like a long sausage, if you know what I mean. The curved edges I get with waht looks like a worm (I'm asuming the panels next to the centre Tube jet). I can't find anywhere a vid showing how these templates are made into foam or PVC?Again I'm new but so eager to learn. Thanks in kind.
Any vids showing how to apply these plans would be a GOD send
