After quite a few flights I now feel very comfortable with the way my BF109 flies and it is one of my favorite planes to take to the field. I did a bit more beefing up of the engine mount area and had to add a bit of lead to the tail to compensate, but other than that there has not been much Ihad to do. I have found that the full "air brakes" are often needed to slow the plane up unless Ihave a pretty good head wind. I have yet to get it on the radar gun, but I would guess it flies at about 120 mph wide open. Since Iused the stock tank I don't have a lot of fuel for the 160FX, but I find that half throttle provides plenty of speed with the 17X10 prop. Here are a couple of recent photos a freind took yesterday.
