Default RE: CMPro 71" Fw-190 kitbash

Hey Dave.
Nice work. Can't wait to see how this thing turns out. I too am a charter member of "ARF Bashers Anonymous". Got an old (Czech)Dora 9 model in a swap meet. Plane was already built and painted quite nicely. Lines are pretty close to scale. But there it ended. I am totally redoing the wing - scale flaps, ailerons, retracts, the works. Taken alot of time, but I am now finishing up on the wing with 100% scale aileron actuation (topside of wing) and no external push rods. If you are interested in any of the details on how I went about it, be glad to share info - FYI my Dora wing is foam core as well. Other ARF Bash subjects in the queue include - MC. 200 and CMP 71" Zeke.

Keep up the good work. FYI, the thing that really turned me off about the CMP 190 were the blisters on the cowl. Getting rid of those will go along way to making it look more scale.
