Zwilling -> Me 109 Zwilling (4/11/2003 1:35:27 PM)
Hi everybody, someone ever seen doing a me 109 modification to a zwilling? I love this bird, and am thinking about conversion from Brian Taylor plans, but I am not a rocket scientist... I haven't seen his plans yet, and don't know if it is possible. Most other plan designers have too big models. (his me 109f has 61" span) Any suggestions would be helpful, (I didn't do a twin before) Thank you If you don't know it: it looks like this... (in plastic)

I don't know of any Zwilling plans/kits, but you could probably find a plan for an F-82 Twin Mustang. That, together with a good Me-109 plan and Zwilling documentation should help you to engineer your project. Good luck!

I have the 3-view ..I was going to do this plane but got burned out on the 109. I have built about 7 of the Meister 100" 109's and 3 of the Meister 84" 109's. I was going to use the 84" 109 to do the Zwilling model. It would be easy to do without too much modification. I would have to do the calculations again but I think the wing span on the twin would be about 110" -112". The bear would be buying 2 sets of landing gear for the thing. Plus the gear mounting blocks would be touching each other so they would be in scale position. If I get a chance I'll post the 3-view tomorrow.... Ty

FW1 just out of interest, whats the 84 model like? in terms of constuction and flying? A club mate has the 100 ins, and its flies very well indeed on a G62. What motor did you fit in yours? and did you have any problems balancing the spinner (my friend did with his) I have been thinking about one for some time now (G-38 or US-42) but have not seen or heard much about the smaller one. Any insight would be appreciated

Hi FW1, If you every start it, let me know! I'm interested in the Meister as well, can you compare it to BT? The inner section of the wing, were you going to use the same ribs as the wing parts? Z.

Here are the 3-views I said I would post I have not built the Brian Taylor 109 so could not compare to two. Ty

the word is "Mistel-1". Now your talking twin engine and then some. Have your 109 and Junkers too! :D How's life Hans? Did my card arrive yet? Tony

Zwilling -> Me 109 Zwilling (4/18/2003 12:37:42 PM)
OK, but then I'll need a copilot, interested? Next time when you want a card to arrive in time, send it with the mustang....no sign yet. Hans

I have the JU-88 in glass ready for primer.. 120"w/s it is set up to add the 60" Me109 to the top. I have plans for the 109 but I have not started it. I want to fly the JU-88 first. Set up for G-38's Ty I have posted pic's before....

bigfishman -> Me 109 Zwilling (4/19/2003 1:51:46 AM)
nice plane

CaptainHook -> 109Z (4/19/2003 10:12:41 AM)
Nice, very nice! Looks like some easy mods for the wing and fuse. A Meister Z with G-62s sparks my interest, maybe next winter. A bit of $, but what a show piece. Ty, can you help me out with this?

fockewulf37 -> Zwilling (4/19/2003 8:31:22 PM)
What kind of help? Be glad to do what I can... Ty

CaptainHook -> Ty (fockewulf1) TY (Meister) (4/20/2003 6:01:49 AM)
Actually I could use help from both of you. Fockewulf1, is it possible to get some more documentaion for this. Ant info is appreciated. TY B., I will need the short kit components along with spinners, plastic, glass, etc. One wing and two fuse sets. I would like to talk to you or Dick but I don't have your #. PM me if you can. Ron says hi! Zwilling, do you have anymore pics of the model you posted? Found this link in a search,looks like info may be limited http://www.luft46.com/mess/me109z.html

fockewulf37 -> zwilling (4/20/2003 7:08:24 AM)
Here is a color scheme you could use since there never really was one.... http://international.model-news.com/gebaut/zwil109/mezwi.htm Ty

Lake Flyer -> Me 109 Zwilling (4/20/2003 9:52:28 AM)
Fockewulf1, like Greyfly I'd like to know what you thought of the Meister 84" 109? I bought the plans when they first came out but the flat bottom airfoil and the landing gear modifications put me off. I drag the plans out now and then and go should I build or shouldn't I. What engine did you use? Can you buy retracts that don't need to be modified? How's it fly? Thanks

snoopys copilot -> Meister 84" 109 (4/20/2003 6:48:26 PM)
Sorry I missed the earlier post. The 84" is built just like the 100" model. It uses the same gear with a 1" shorter leg. I had a G-38 in mine and it flew a tad heavy but flew well. You really have to cut back on the control throws. I had almost 1 " elevator travel in the 100" but down to 1/2" in the 84". I have talked to others who have built the plane and said the Moki 1.8 is perfect for the plane. Mine balanced a little nose heavey with the G-38 in it. That why I say the Moki would be just right in it. Here is a pic of the 84" done in an E-model with a G-38 in it... Ty
