The Yaks, fine by me. For me it’s all about the design and engineering not any politics past or present. An argument for not flying any warbirds could be made as some might say that it glorifies war. That would be a real shame and would certainly be disrespectful for all the countless lives that were sacrificed, which allows us to have the luxury of our lifestyles today. Going to get back in my box now 😇

Great idea, nice to see how present day technology is being used with traditional building👍
-
Any alternatives to Mr RC sound? I believe Mr. RC Sound is not selling to individual customers any more due to the European Union's GDPR regulations ☹️. No rush from me either Bf 110 still in box 🤣 also have a "Hurri" part built

Looking forward to them, never thought that I would build build a Spit. Thought that they would be common. In the two clubs that I have been a member, there has only been a couple. Owners just seemed to be intimidated to fly them (maybe for good reason?). Used to fly a mustang from Cambrian models, it was really good fun but did not like it when it got a bit breezy. Hope to get air under the FW190 soon😇. Just out of interest anybody using a sound system on any of the replica models?
-
That suits me nearly finished the Fw 190 🤣🤣🤣. Looking forward to the Spitfire and the Bf109.
-
No mistake in what it is, really shows the character of the 109. 👍 If it flys in anyway that it looks, then you’re going to have some very enjoyable flying sessions.
-
Likely to have one of each, definitely the 109 (one of my favourites) retracts, spinners motors etc. A good incentive to get house renovation finished, although knowing that a mossie is on the way at some time certainly helps 😉
-
Ready for paint. Bare bones weight with spinner is 2lbs 4oz or 1010 grams. First time for brown paper covering, although have used tissue before. Used ezee coat on tail plane and dope on the rest. I'd forgotten how strong the smell was with conventional dope. Used to mix talc with dope, really good finish when that was used in past.
-
I presume we’ll be getting a full 3d printed cockpit then 😇 🤣🤣🤣🤣
-
Also in middle of house renovation, one of reason Fw190 is so slow. Happy to wait for the full glossy kit, as being neurodivergent, proper plan and manual certainly helps😇
-
My yearly post, good job that it is a quick build kit 🤣. Started finger grip, slots a little deeper than planned but will line with balsa Pleased with first attempt and brown paper covering, a little filler and sanding with have fuselage ready for covering. Fitting canopy is not my favourite job, so not looking forward to that. May need to add a few temporary screw to help pull in canopy to fuselage sides. David A

Silver Wolf replied to Gordon McConnell's topic in Warbird kits
Hi Gordon, I’m another watching and enjoying the build, my build as stalled, started in 2022. Intend to get back on the building board soon. Keep posting 👍 -

I might be the odd one out as I quite enjoy planking 🫢

Oh, l do hope there is a rerun of the Bf 109 🫰😉
