For those of us with smaller shops, fields and wallets, (gotta be someone else besides me ) I would love to see an AUW 20 lb. Hellcat (maybe a little bigger than the BT plan) with a glass fuse.

I promise to be good this year.

Status: offline 		Thanks for asking for our input. I like to see the 100" warbirds. The Hellcat and Dauntless are two that I would like to see. But what I would really like is a 1/4 scale Macchi 202. Although I know you said it would be hard to sell more than a handful, maybe there is more of us than you might think. Thanks.

Status: offline 		Wow,

This is really good feedback. Dino and I have noticed that several have posted about planes we already carry. Please take a look at www.meister-scale.com. Several have mentioned a zero and we do carry that plane. Please keep the feedback coming.

Yup, I'm guilty of having mentioned one of the planes you already carry. That is, the 109. But, like I said, refine what you already have to a more scale-like appearance. This would have to be the easiest change in your line up of all. I have a ZDZ 80 just dying to find a home in the cowl of a good 1/4 scale 109!

Al

And mine would look like this......

Status: offline 		I'd like to see a more scale-appearing Spitfire, mk 1a to 9, in the 1/5 size. Also the Hawker Hurricane in 1/5. In the twin area, maybe a P-38, Mosquito, Tigercat, Beaufighter, in 90-100" wingspan.......
I really appreciate your attitude and comittment to those of us who still build from kits/scratch.
Sam

Status: offline 		Building on what you guys already have:

109E in the same sizes as your 109G's for parts compatability.
TA-152H in the same scale as your 190D for the same reasons.
Spitfire Mk 5.
Mitsubishi Raiden.
Heinkel HE-100D.

Status: offline 		Ditto on the P39 but would also like to see B25, actually any WW II bird would do. I prefer min of 1/5 scale with built up balsa. Thanks so much for asking. Quality and service is what will set you above!!

ORIGINAL: bigtim

the 80" planes are a nice size for the transport chalenged.
a FW190A model,also P-51B malcom hood,ME 109E,Hellcat,more of the mid sized models with the accesorys included or at least a option to purchase like blisters gun hoods etc...your site is great but some of the planes are a little big for me.
being able to put a kit together and having all the extras in one package would be great also for that size,( 80" rather than trying to source out the little scale extras.
[/quo

This seems like a good idea especially in light of the new generation of 50 size gas engines ----Its unfortunate that Dace Platts line of aircraft seem to fall just short of IMAC requirements .

Cost's an arm and a leg to get they out here by airmail, and by boat i would forget about it and would have started another porject in the mean time

but for my 2c worth...

BF-190 E
TBM Avenger
Hellcat


The again, no good if we can't build them out here!!!

Status: offline 		Have you considered designs for electric flight- in the 80-85 inch wingspan range? electric is coming on strong- and once battery prices come down some there will be alot of possibilities there.

another thing- take a hard look at arfs or good arcs. hangar 9 has some good arf warbirds but your designs if produced in truer scale arfs would find a good market out there.

personally i think the gas warbirds are awesome but unless engine prices drop significantly the chinese will eat da, etc for lunch with their engine copies. the same thing applies to your designs. if you don't get into the arf and electric market you will have a rapidly shrinking market.

i know some may be upset by these comments but to me the handwriting is very clear on the wall.

Ed

And,

I just want a slightly modified version of your 109 G model ...

BUT, slightly modified into a Emil version. Will need a new spinner of course, slightly different wing tips, Front fuse mods, tail struts, but basic construction is already there ?

I would also like the rear fuse formers to be rounded out a bit to be slightly better to scale.

Not complaining of course !! lol



Here's my Meister 109 G ... to go with my Spitty... well, the 109 is still here !
