Robert Parker Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Yep a VC10 would be fantastic, even better with those massive flaps! or how about a Lockheed Constellation, 4 motors, triple fins, and a banana shaped fus or a Short Stirling if you want a warbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Hargreaves - Moderator Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Bucker Jungman or Jungmeister....suitable for a 90 4 stroke..... Or you could go mad & design a Jungmeister for that new Sirius 7 from OS........Edited By Steve Hargreaves on 17/11/2010 22:41:31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plummet Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 For personal and sentimental reasons, the Armstrong Whitworth Albemarle. Of following the Ed's experience with the Mew Gull, how about another Alex Henshaw associated aircraft rarity, the Arrow Active. Last try? There is a lovely aircraft hanging from the ceiling inside Prague airport. It is , I believe, an Aero 45 PlummetEdited By Plummet on 18/11/2010 09:27:39 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited By Steve Hargreaves on 17/11/2010 22:41:31 oooh yes please. Or a golden era racer - Wedell-Williams maybe or Curtiss RC3?

Danny Fenton Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 How about civillian twins: The Grumman Cougar is an aluminium aircraft with virtually no compound curves, the panels are nearly all flat, and the joints were glued together. Then two classics The Twin Commanche And my favorite the Piper Apache Cheers DannyEdited By Danny Fenton on 18/11/2010 09:52:48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Coombs Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I would suggest 1. Rapide. should be an interesting build. 2. Dove. 3. Viscount. Could be 2 IC plus 2 dummy or 4 IC. Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leccyflyer Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 The aeroplane wants to be something sufficiently recogniseable as to generate enough people who want to build it, but sufficiently obscure so as to not be over-modelled already. Here's a few potential candidates from my "must build one day" 1. Douglas Boston - an electric twin in the Flair Beaufighter sort of size, big enough for retracts and flaps.2. Bell P-39 Airacobra - very undermodelled aeroplane - a 1/6th scale version of this little beauty would pan out at about 68" span - big enough for a tricycle set of retracts and flaps. 3. Grumman Martlet - 1/6th scale or thereabouts, same deal as for the P-39. The above would all appeal to UK and US markets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayCee Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 OK three choices in three different categories. 1st unashamedly the long awaited ARTF Chris Foss Wot 4 Foam-E more fun per £ than any off my other models, used and abused at the club site and local fields, flow almost daily and still going strong! So:- 1st 2nd SE5a 3rd De Havilland Tiger Moth DH82A JC Moderator amendment/note - foam RTF design (WOT4) removed as first choice. There are no formal categories. Please PM David Ashby with your revised 1st choice. Edited By David Ashby - RCME Administrator on 18/11/2010 13:21:54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
