Folks, summer came and went and its time to get this 152 ready for flight.
Paint had been going at slow but steady pace and soon the markings will be done and weathering will start.
Paint scheme will be Green 9, Willi Reschke's mount with Jagdgeschwader 301 and 302.

We had a warm weekend and more painting was done. The bulk is done, now the rest of the markings, nomenclature and weathering which has started on the supercharger lip. Chipped paint can be achieved by pulling with masking tape.

Very nice Jose, congrats on finishing the plane. Im always inspired by your efforts. Im looking forward to your flight video!
I wonder with so much wing what she will land like. This plane will be fun on windy days to pull power back and fly in the wind. Its like a scale sailplane! Lol
good job my friend

Hey Chris,
thanks for the support. This will fly like a big trainer, the huge flaps will help for landings though.
Since I based it on the Fw190 that I flew before, I know this will be much easier to fly in a way.
By the way, give me a call when able, lost my cell phone contacts.

Ta-152 builders, here is an update on the inner gear doors: I'm now using the spring down/up and striker system close to the full size design. The spring goes over center to open and close but the wheel keeps the doors from opening in flight. The striker is made of a .50" K&S brass strip.

My Feedback: (37)
HS125MG on ailerons 49oz torque? Is there any room for a standard size servo? If space is of concern I would use the MKS-6125 slim servo, no slop and 91oz. Ailerons being way out there, you may not need the torque but I feel the HS-125 has too much slop (IMO). With the long wires hopefully you are using 2 RX packs and 2 switches.
Your TA looks fantastic! Cant wait to build one.

190,
I have a bit of concern about the slop more than the torque so i will be replacing the aileron servos. I did a search for the MKS-6125 slim servo but nothing was found! It's a very tight fit for a standard servo in that part of the wing.
Thanks!

Or maybe something like this? https://www.servocity.com/html/hs-52...l#.VMkye2dATcs
I still need to order my servos for my TA 152.
Looking forward to flight reports.
