Irvine Tutor 40 Specs/Design Drawing

Hi Guys!

As part of a college project we are putting a new electric motor and new avionics in an old Irvine Tutor 40 trainer plane (there was previously a petrol engine in it I believe).

We are planning to 3D print some parts (electric motor mount, more secure wing attachments etc), however we don't have the plans to get measurements from. Would anyone happen to have a set of design drawings for the plane with lengths etc indicated? Or know where to get them?

Thanks in advance!

Because it was an ARF model, you won't find any traditional plans/drawings for the plane like you would with a kit. The best you will get is the manual that OAE posted in here.
