Default Nitro Planes' New Messerschmitt Bf 109F

Hello All:

I note that Nitro Planes has just released a 73" span Messerschmitt Bf 109F (HAHN). I purchased their FW 190 last year and was rather disappointed. In particular, the painted heat shrink covering on the wings and grossly out of scale canopy among other more minor issues, but for the $160 purchase price I was willing to accept the problems with the model. The BF 109 is selling for $299 and I'm not sure that I want to take a chance with this one []. Is there anyone contemplating purchasing the BF 109? Is there someone who already has one? In the advert on the website, they do mention that the “balsa wing is spray painted.” I wonder what they mean by that.
