Dang Al! Nice collection of planes ya got there! Looks more like your cup AND your workshop runneth over! That FW 190A is a beauty. What are you using for power?

Regarding the Staggerwing, I do agree with you about the seam.
Thanks
FW is powered by an OS120AX. That should be plenty, but it's going to be heavy after I get it balanced out. Probably in the 17lb range.
The OS120AX is a sweet engine. Tons of power and a great runner. I've got one in my Stinson Stationwagon (82" wingspan, 11 lbs... holy unlimited vertical Batman!) We've clocked it at 89.9 mph. Not bad for a high wing plane with as much drag as a Cub
