Default RE: Fliteskin Ta-152 H1

Keep in mind this is just a 1/5 scale FW 190 with a stretched wing. Just because the span is long, does not mean it should be a heavy airplane. It is not the same as say a 114" Thunderbolt or Corsair.
I have the Andersen plans and I see no reason why an aircraft of this size should not be much over 25lbs. The wingspan seems to thrwo some people on this design. It is not that big really, just long wings. The prototype Andersen is flying with (and designed for) a 50cc engine.

I cannot wait to see this become available. Any time line?
