Default RE: Buiding pics Waco YMF-5 Barth Modellbau

I know this model, it´s simply too expansive...1821€...wow! Mind you, a kit, not an ARF!!!

First important thing for me is, to bring the Waco in the air and healthy back to the earth, and have a lot of fun with her
A long time later I will think about a new model. Perhaps a big Warbird for the Moki, .......or a big GeeBee R3 from Airworld
she kost´s ONLY 2600€ http://www.airworld.online.de/Deutsc...Bee/Geebee.htm

The work of the fuse is ending soon, than I have to make the N-Struts and than I can finally cover the wings and the stab.
I mean, January or February she will get ready. 10 month building time with a lot details...that´s OK.
See You

Hi Bernie,

Yes that is a lot of money, but we are trying to get only the GFK fuse and the other small GFK parts that is aprox 500,-- € The building plans are maybe 80,-- €.
The rest we can buy ourselves in our local shop.

Yes 10 months building time is not much ,
Have you think already in which color you make the Waco? And are you spray it or use a roller.

I have done it with a velvet roller and if your paint is a litle bit warm and thin enough the result turned out better than expected.


**Off topic**
For the winter months I am flying with a Piper Pawnee span 2,7 mtr. I have bought it second-hand. I am now busy with an other exhaust. The standaard exhaust that is on the ZG62 is to restrictive so I have build a low budget cannister made out of two spray cans and build it in the fuse. I hope i get some more rpm now out the ZG62.


Grüßen,

Ruud.
