RE: CMP BF109F BUILDING THREAD
Well, here are some pics of mine. I am still thinking of adding some yellow paint to the chin scoop area and plan on eventually adding the spiral thing to the spinner(I just havent found thin masking type tape to do it yet).
I honestly like the looks of this plane better then my KMP overall. What I dont like is the fragile nature of the fiberglass. When I was drilling out pilot holes for the screws(hexbolts with blind nuts) to secure the chin piece, a chunk of the fiberglass broke off. It was small enouhg to keep hidden when the chin piece is affiex, but still it worries me that with regular repeated landings, the plane will start to crack apart in places. Already, I have large paint cracks around the vertical stab area. But, this plane just looks so good, I may get a spare from AK.
Note...I used window screen mesh material on the face of the turbo airscoop just like the real plane and the scoop is functional to direct air onto the 2x 5s 4900mah lipos
