Chris Salomon Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I forgot to say it has to be electric, but then again it is Tony, although he has strayed to the dirty side on occasions recently! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete D Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 My personal preferance is for a model that would also double as a scale trainer so high wing electric seems to be a good start. 1. Fiesler Storch2. Westland Lysander3. D.H. Chipmunk i know this is low wing but would also fit the bilThanks to Mr. N. for all his brilliant plans but as I detected in an earlier thread perhaps more for the Lekkies or maby design a plan with a choice of power plants.

Malcolm Fisher Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I'm sorry that they're all military types, but then I opted for some of them when first asked. I should stick to my preferences so go for Hurricane, Lysander and Storch - not necessarily in that order... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead-stick Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Brian Riant wrote (see)No such thing as full size electric war bird!! so for a bit of added realism all should be i.c. Not heard a model ic engine yet that sounded realistic (gas turbines excluded), however, some of the sound generation systems used on electric models sound very authentic!
