PBY Catalina (preferably with retracts - now there is a challenge) Pilatus Porter (with operational flaps) Fairey Gannet (how about contra rotating props from two motors?).

Djay Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 sorry second go. Polikarpov PO2 biplane. Top speed of the real one is about 80mph, and cruises about 30mph.80hp engine. Just seen two fly at an airshow, I cannt fly my models that slow. Lovely birds to watch, especially if you read the history of how they were used in WW2 i woud love to build one, 70 inch span would be good. So if it does not make 2009's plan, design one anyway.

David Sutherland Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 1. DeHavilland Beaver - something 'chunky' with a sturdy undercarriage that will take off from my awful local grass field. 2. Polikarpov 1-16. Wonderful WWll Russian open cockpit fighter - there are numerous exciting colour schemes in Scale Aviation Modeller International - Vol12 issue September 2006 or Google 'Polikarpov 1-16 images'. 3. Junkers W34fi - see the second photo on http://www.geocities.com/hjunkers/ju_w33_a1.htm - so full of character. 48'' or so, span. Each for electric power, please. Detachable wings would be a bonus.
