I am planning on a WW1 out of a kit as a "relaxer" project next perhaps after that one of your 1/6 Hellcats..... ?
RCPROPSNAPPER, any Hellcat is a good Hellcat, sport scale or otherwise.
Assuming all goes as hoped for the plans and accessories will be available Steve and, most likely, somebody will be offering a laser cut short kit. Span is right around 86 inches and I am planning on either a G-45 or G-62 depending upon where the all up weight comes in. Hoping for around 25 pounds but it very well could go 30 with all the detail. Should fly great either way. My Byron Corsair flew great at 31 pounds and the Hellcat has substantially more wing area. At any rate I would love to have you on board. Maybe get you to build one of the pre-production samples? Somebody with your skill set would do it justice for sure. At any rate I have a build thread on the airplane here at RCU somewhere. It' s probably buried 20 pages deep by now but as soon as there is movement on the project again I will resurrect the old thread. Keep an eye out for it and thanks a bunch!
