RE: ~.50 sized F6F HellCat
Kit, plans, ARF?
Model airplane news has a plan for a 57 incher.
Jemco and Skyshark both made kits about that same size. Neither is still available although a short kit or at least plans and parts may be available for the Skyshark. The Jemco kit comes up in the classified every once in a while.
Not aware of any ARF's in this size range.

RE: ~.50 sized F6F HellCat
Thanks for the info every one.
I had a feeling i would either have to buy an old one that would require home made or specialty parts. Dont think i have much skill for a kit of this magnitude.

It would be my first glow plane and i dont have a full time job so an 82" would not be in my budget.
OK! how about a hellcat w/ engine for ~300$. I dont need it a certain size so are there any new recomendations?

Hangar 9 and Nitroplanes/CMP are about the only games in town for Hellcat ARFs unless you want a small, electric park flyer type. If your diligent you might find one of them second hand or on ebay and get it cheap enough to fit your budget with engine.
