Status: offline 		One thing that jumps out at me is that the canopy frames are not painted. Will KMP carry matching paint so the canopy frames can be painted by the modeler?

In my opinion, nothing looks nastier on a scale plane than canopy frames painted a completely different color than the rest of the plane or one that isn't painted at all.

Canopy frames that are too wide are not much better either. Not sure why they don't make the frames narrow like they should be it isn't anymore work.

This is the first KMP I'm actually thinking about buying.

thanks bob

Status: offline 		I'm guessing here but it's possible that the plane in the picture is a prototype of the soon-to-be-offered ARF. As such, the small details like a painted canopy frame are usually omitted. And if the final product came through unpainted, so what? It's no big deal to paint the framing. Besides, look at everything else!! Man, this boy looks GREAT!!!!!!

I'm looking forward to reading the specs........wingspan, engine size range, etc. I gotta start playing the lottery!

Status: offline 		Hello all. It looks like I'll have to buy another KMP ship. From what I can see, the shape of the plane is good. I like the size(scale). I just hope they offer an unfinished version and that a couple of small gassers are not too much for it. Time to start saving the $$.

Later,

Mike

Status: offline 		Maybe the builder/owner of this 110 will reply. I thought he/she did an excellent job on this bird. Good color scheme too. Yellow engine cowls easier to see at far end of field.
With nitro prices rising and not knowing the single engine flight statis of the new KMP BF110 yet,,, gas or electric would be the way to go. (At least till someone flys one right engine out.)

Thank you Andrew !!!!!!!

I'll have to find the German site that does the Bf 110. Its not a small bird.

Status: offline 		Ok, put me on the waiting list. It should be an easy electric conversion plan and it looks like the canopy can be removed to acess the batteries and electronics too. I am hoping the WS is around 85-90 inches and the weight is 16-20 lbs. A couple 60 size electric motors and it will be a good flyer.
