Build the PMR1
The ‘plans’ consist of:
a license to build,
several packages of drawings, plan sheets and templates,
access to all the build instructions, videos and 3D models, and
inclusion in the build community.
Because we know that self builders add their touch to each craft built to plans, the design is flexible.
The templates package consists of ten full size template drawings with all the panels laid out ready to cut. The functional elements of the hull are roughly grouped allowing for personal options of the duct and seat.
There is no measuring out – no mistakes to be made. Just print and apply to your sheets as a cutting template
Curved panels are nested togetherCut out details and panel intersects are all on the plansMaterial wastage is minimised

PMR1 is offered as a fully online plan set. We make use of the latest web technologies to give you deep insight to what you are making. The instructions incorporate drill down views, videos and photos to ensure that you are in complete control of your build.
I ploughed the nose in at 30 knots and I’m writing about it 4 mins later. I’m a bit shaky, that was a rush. The nose looked like doing a submarine then just slid along without going under. I got a gust of wind from behind with the nose trimmed down. Point here is it did what its designed to do. I did brace my leg on the steering upright. 30 knots with plenty left. Newbies might want to start with 20hp. 38 is dangerous in the wrong hands. I’m guessing you have a way to cover yourself. I’m not being silly, the PMR1 is that far above what’s out there performance wise. Mines not even 100% yet.
Based on the successful Revtech Renegade developed by Owen Ellis, the PMR1 is a full foam composite craft that any craftsman can make.
The construction techniques are simple and don’t require any special technical skills.
