Some pics of my David Andersen TA 152 build. Progressing nicely now. Pretty complicated wing. Must be careful to build it straight. Not to mention my kit cutter did a very bad job creating the parts. In the end it will be a very nice plane though. All of the work will be worth it.
1/5th scale, 114'' wing. G62 for power. Sliding canopy, operating cowl flaps with thermostat. Scheme will be one of the prototypes with round wing tips. A departure to make it different at the field.

Ughh....cant get pics to load. Will try later
Very nice work! I may pick your brain about the operating cowl flaps.
Here is my 152 project.

Jose, check out this website. Have not played around with it yet, but I do have it sitting in the box. http://www.oregonscaleaviation.com/

That is my next plan is to solder a set up. The plane flies great just had to mod it since the ARFs have taken away the uniqueness of this plane

Ram bro
I drew my own plans from a blown up 8 x 10 3-view
it is DO -335V-11 the prototype to the A 10 2 seat trainer
It was one of the FEW that was finished and flown
I DO like the night fighter version I think the antenna are cool
I just never got around to adding them on
My plane has two wing mounted bomb drops I dont think the real plane ever flew with drop tanks or bombs but it was on the plans as an option
and the front canopy is open to the side like an ME 109 operated by servo
DLE 30 in front
OS 1.08 glow in back
flies VERY fast
lands nice and slow with full flaps

Hi all, after some month I´ve almost done my Bf-109F. Wingspan is 2050mm, and the weight without the equipment is about 6500g, I think, that it is too heavy.

You should be fine. 2050mm is 80.7 inches and 6500g is 14.3 pounds. Add in the servos, retracts, motor, etc.....you're probably going to be around 20 pounds. I have an ESM FW-190 D9 at 82.5"(2095mm) and it weighs roughly 22pounds(9979g). It flies just fine and lands quite well...in fact, I have to use full flaps merely to slow it down to land otherwise it will just keep floating on by. I have a 73 inch(1854mm) me-109F that weighs 16.5 pounds(7484g). It also flies well and lands without much difficulty, although flaps are needed more for landing then just slowing it down.

My Hangar 9 80 inch P-51 weighs over 18 pounds and flies well with a saito 220. Landings are usually uneventfull.

Thank you for the optimistic words! I´ve just had this Bf-109, the take-off weight was about 9000g (19,8pounds) and it was little bit difficult for landing, it was very fast. I think, if it was go out off engine, it would be a disaster.
Now I have ESM La-7, and the take-off weight is 7700g (16,9 pounds). The landings are fantastic.

For serious buyers I'm considering listing my award winning ME262 RTF with flight packs. Painted and finished by the Master builder Todd Burley himself. Interested buyers PM me and we can discuss.

Looks like that P47 driver overshot and didnt get any hits on your departing '190'.
Once again, very nice.

Blown - up Platt 109

86" WS, 18lbs, Fox 2.4 for power. Perfect combination.

Flies like a pattern ship and lands like a butterfly with sore feet.

She's six years old now and has over 300 flights. I even did a winter camo whitewash this spring to dress her up.

Next up, I'll blow up Taylors Bf-109E plans to the same numbers.

Cheers,

Chuck
