Cessna 421C
As most of you know I am finishing up my giant twin Islander. I just ordered plans for the Wendell Hostetler Cessna 421C twin. This is a giant and I think I will put 2 70cc Twin engines? Has anyone here built this? If so I would love a few pictures and tips on your build or build thread?
Thanks !!!!!
Thanks !!!!!

I'll be watching this builds progress. I've always thought about doing this plane as well. I'm just starting a Palmer C130 but this build your doing is on my list of builds to do in time.

mlang1321,
Yes I always wanted to build this. I am finishing my Islander first. So hoping to start this but wont ready for this spring. Are you doing a build thread on the 310? I would love to see pictures. Have you seen my Islander pictures?

Yes seen your islander pics and now I have plans for this one but haven't done anything with them yet. I'm going to do the Palmer C130 Hercules build first.

Yea and after taking a look at the plans I don't know if I'll use them. I like the look of the plane but I bought these plans rolled up at a rc swap meet and they are not the best plans. I think they are copies of copies and the copied again. I need better ones so I might look for others again. I've got a few to build ahead of it anyways, I've got the following to go first.
1) full wood kit of the Palmer C130 Hercules.
2) short kit of Ziroli B 25 ready to go. All cut and ready.
3) short kit of Valley aviation Hawker Hurricane. All cut and ready.
4) short kit of Ziroli Stuart. All cut and ready.
5) short kit on the Anderson folke Wolfe TA 15th. Partially cut wing ribs left to cut yet.
Plus a few on the go already
1) Top Flite giant scale gold edition P47 on build table presently.
2) 1/11th scale DC3 with a 106.9" wingspan, 90% done
