Guys. You REALLY have to look into putting together a .25 size BF-109. Right now there is no ARF available for purchase in this size that’s even stand way off scale. Anyone who has flown your .25 Size Spitfire loves it. If you could build a BF-109 <early model> it would sell like hotcakes!

I mean the Spitty you sell is basically a clone of sorts of the Ripmax model. With Ripmaxs ME-109 right around the corner one would think you could clone that model ASAP! The electric guys are crying out loud for one. I know and spent a LOT of time trying to get the soon to be released Ripmax ME-109 imported into the USA.

Hobbico has stated they are not importing the Ripmax ME-109 anytime soon. Ripmax's sole distributor IS Hobbico. You have a golden opportunity to sell a LOT of kits right now!

Ultrafly dropped the ball getting stocks of their new .25 Size FW-190 to MRC late. In the time it took to stock MRC GWS released their similar sized FW-190. Now every Tom, Dick, and Harry is going to purchase the inexpensive GWS <about 1/3 the cost BTW> as an alternative.

Think about it. You want a model that sells, well THIS is one that will.

Respectfully.

Funny, I don't consider .25 "small" but I guess anything smaller then say .46 is just that.

The CMP misses the boat with the electric guys who don't have VERY deep pockets.

Come on Nitro Models at least chime in here a little bit!

Where can I find out more about this? I'm right on the edge of buying a 71" Zero or 70" 190 but a 109 would make it a no-brainer, and I'd wait for it if I had some dates.

Yes I did... in fact I posted a photo of it above. Forget the FW, we need a BF/ME-190 and for gods sake a scale spinner!!!

Hey Tommy, where'd you hear they were making a 109 for the spring? Spring's almost over! Any idea when it's coming out?

Good call, same question for you LDM

If nothing else I'll try calling them when I get home Monday. If I could get a specific date I could decide whether to get the 190 or wait for the 109. Less than a month of spring left, but I know how projected release dates are (not only am I a GWS fan but I like to play computer games, projected release dates are guesses at best).

Thats good news. I just got a PM from perhaps someone whom works "at the factory".

You should also look long and hard at the Hawker Hurricane. The old Balsacraft model would be a easy <cough copy> way to get the ball rolling.

Keep us advised on the 109

Kindest Regards
