I listed the wrong individual sorry. Meant Ramstein44.

And ill have to bring extra's now to take on your Allied planes lol :) I imagine ur elluding to something with a moki 250cc radial?.
I dont YET have anything that big. 80" yes, but not 96+

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

I assume you havent made the landing gear droppable?

What prop were u using on what motor again?

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Gear is stock and fixed (pout) but I fly off pavement only so its gotta stay that way for now. My friend is finishing the big Joe Saita Komet...that one will have the trolly that detaches and a landing skid.

13X6 prop....(very little clearance). Motor is the cheapo KMS from hobby people...but for this ARF bash....its perfect.

Kahlog, it is actaully a magnum 400 mounted in a JDM Bearcat. Dont you have a Mig3?

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Pandiss I havemy own 163 yet to have flown, but it is setup on a OS 60. Where did you get yor batteries? I need a set for my Hurricane...5000ma 3oc 5s I believe

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Oh COME ON!!! You flew all day and didn't smoke an ESC, puff a battery, start a BBQ, or get 2.4'd ???? I will believe it when I see it!! NICE PICS!!!

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Very well done on your Komet Ram-bro. You dont have anymore of those JG400 Decals do you? I have been playing with the HobbyKing Zippy packs. I have tried 3s, 4s and 6s from 25 to 40C. So far I have only blown 1 battery out of about 12 I have. I use the 6s 5000MAH 30C in the big 262 (not not flown yet ) For the price...you cannot beat them. You will take a hit on shipping...but if you order enough stuff it is worth it.

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

pandiss, Those arestencils from GETStencils.com. Not hard to apply at all to apply. Hey we kinda match each other here, i have a Saita 262 also but it is powered by 2x os120s. Its onmy list to finish along with the Hurricane, Meister 109 among others. I will checkout the HobbyKing. Thanks

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

its not like you dont have anything at all to finish Tony:)

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

trying to keep up with the Jones and Burley's:)

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Stephan emailed me new pics of the 1/4 scale A8 he is working
and gave me permission to post the pics here.
he should be ready for production in March or so.

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Tony...I went with Getstencils.com for my JG400 decal. I ordered a sheet full of the Dry Transfer decals ready to go. I thought this the best option for the ease of application and I dont have to have the 4 matching paints to do a true mask stencil. So far the customer service has been excellent and prompt. Price for a sheet was very cheap. I should have the transfers this weekend. I will let you know how they go on.

Here is the JG400 insignia....loose translation " Like a flea...but oh how it goes"

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

so youure wil be the dry transfers?....darn thats great. I had to paint these puppies on, not hard but a lil time consuming. Cant wait to see ho wthey come out

Engine test with cowel and spinner removed. Brand New GT80 with B&B Isolation mounts. Worked perfect! Next trip out will be the re-maiden.

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Stencils arrived. Very good quality. I went a little big on the size to use them on the big Joe Saitta Komet later. Real easy to put on, peel off the back, line it up and then burnish it on with a ball point pen. The minor winkles in pic rubbed out with my finger...then a few light coats of flat clear coat...easy project.

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Todd,

You are going to pick one up for me too? Right?

RE: Let's See Your Luftwaffe Birds!!!
 

Pandiss, that is way too easy......I went ol school on mine. I definietly will have to consider using something like that on future projects. The only problem....at my skill level is weathering those.
