Default Looking foreword to a reply in Giant scale Hellcat

Hey Hi Guys,
Maybe you know of anybody, anyfirm who is currently having an F6F Hellcat in arf or artf except Iron Bay who doesn't seem to be in business any longer in giant scale? I tried Ziroli but doesn't ship the fiberglass kit at the other side of the pond.
Maybe you guys in rcu may help!

Cheers
Johnnie

Hi Johnnie,

How about one of these.

If I can get enough orders {4} you could have one by the end of Feb 2007.

Cheers Graham.

Hey Shafs hello!

I really like the H9 models. They are good flying planes. I have bought and flown already the P51 60size, the P51 150size, the P47 60size, the P47 180size, the F4U 60size and I enjoy flying them almost every weekend. But this time I am more into getting bigger sized airlanes. Thanks anyway! Happy flying!
Cheers
Johnnie

Hi All,

Glad you like the Hellcat,she come's from a very good stable in Germany.

She has a three piece wing and all spar's and joining tubes already in place,wing span is 95"

The fuselage has all rivet and panel line detail moulded in as has the wing.

Retracts are not a problem as the Robarts fit perfect,or we can offer our own.

I 'm just waiting to get the full spec from Leo and I will post up,we are also getting the prices sorted out,but she should come in about the same price as the Comp ARF P51.

As I said Leo will not do a run unless I can get four or more order's.

We are also doing a B fuselage for the P51 this fits the Comp ARF//Fibber Classics P51 D kit.

Here are some pics ,sorry they are not that good,I should be getting some better ones at the end of the week.

Hi graham,

If you go onto www.RCSCALEBUILDER.com and you will see the build thread and description of crash into tree, not too badly damaged, should be back out in January time.
The field i test flew it at was our one in chelmsford that i belong to, and I didn't tell many people i was test flying because it was a week day so most people would be at work. Di was my pit ***** for the day.
If you fancy a trip to the workshop you will see it lol
shouldn't need to buy a new one it's quite repairable.

see you soon

Dave n Di

Hi Dave,

Thats good news on your bird,I hope you can get her up an running for the April bash!!!!!!


Sorry no more news on the Comp Hellcat apart from Leo being to greedy on the Price!!!!!! even if I order 4 of them, he still wants 1400 Euros each,so I would hate to think what they work out with the exchange rate?????[&o]
