RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

sean- where did you get your model from? It looks looks well built. It would be interesting to see the differences between your model and the others posted here. Do you have any pics of the inside?

Just noticed this image advertised here on RCU. Recognize this plane? (Hint) look behind all the advertisement mumbo jumbo and focus on the plane.

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

I used latex flat by Behr (premium plus). When I do a touch up I lightly sand the area, clean it with rubbing alcohol. Then I paint it and clear coat the newly painted spot. The end result is...

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

I sealed the paint with clear coat before I began to assemble the model. But for touch ups I went to the home depot with sample strips from the model and had them match it using the computer. The...

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

I have not seen any problems with my 190 tipping forward. The wheels could be tight causing it to drag a bit?

If you gunned the engine from a dead stop it could nose over. Are you using up...

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

Cutting the foam was easy- I more or less just gutted the box area that made my hobby room look like a snow storm had just hit. I replaced the gear because I had the same problem with landing. On...

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

Looks are a bit deceiving on my setup. I worked out a way to increase the mounting area by installing runners horizontally in the wing. The runners are above and below of the ply inserts both in...

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

I use a wheel collar and replace the set screw with a small screw that is just the right size to clamp the cover to the collar and the collar to the landing gear.

RE: nitroplanes.com FW 190 Build

Ross- I am thinking that 7500 RPM with a 15x6 is not going to be a successfull combo. I had a 15X6 turning @ 8500 RPM and it still seems like a bit of a dog. "just enough" is how I would describe...
