Default Large scale arfs

Why hasn't any manufacturer made any giant scale warbird arfs yet? ie.. ziroli/byron size warbirds. Im sure these would sell like hotcakes.

I had no idea about this company and their big scale arfs. Can anyone tell about the quality of the kits? Whose designs are these planes based on?

You need to do a search here and there will be plenty of reading. Go to the gold strip at the top of the page and hit search, then type in the plane you want. Seems like most of their planes get a "C" average rating from posters here.

The new world models zero? Is that large scale enough?

Be forewarned! Giant Scale Planes sells garbage and they do not stand behind their products! The owner has a poor attitude towards customer service and is none to friendly unless he's on the receiving end of your hard earned $$$.

Happy Flying!

You might want to check out Skyshark Aviation's new P-40 ARF that they are coming out with in the very near future. 83" glass, air retracts (both mains & tail), oleo struts on the mains, painted finish, rivets & panel line details, etc...

LoopMan,Ya know Bob Lane? Stay away from GSP. I was foolish enough to spend my money once and will never happen again. I saw their whole line at DeLand,Fla. last Feb. 1. Spend your money elsewhere!!!
