Stelios: I have one some where, I just need to find it and I will send the measurements. Have you tried Army Radio in the UK?

Floyd, thanks for your response, the sponson plates are to heavy to order it via post service, so i dicide to make it with a simple metal sheet.(CNC LAZER)
Send the dimension as it is simple to you. in inch, i will converted to centimmeters.

Stelios: I'm not a draftsman or an artist, so fogive the drawings. I can't seem to post a PDF scan, so I'll send as an attachment. Any questions let me know. Between the pictures and my super artwork maybe you can put it together. Good luck.

Hey Guys-
Does anyone have a Sponson Plate for the R-442 that you're willing to sell? I am also looking for the support leg for the Sponson Plate used with the 1029 Mount (For RT-524s and AM-2060). Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Matt-
