Ok, did get to take some pics of my latest toy this past weekend. Did to manage to break the expensive CF Bolly Prop too. :mad: Was turning to fast after landing, and she kind of tried to nose over and hit the prop on the paved runway. Fortunately that was the only thing that broke.;)

Ziroli Stuka 101" WS (HUGE one piece wing) with G-62 for power and done in the Tankbuster (2x 37mm cannons under wings) Winterchamo Scheme from the Eastern Front.
This Stuka was build by Lenny Smith in Kenner LA, but I bought it from Evan Quiros in Laredo, TX. Thanks for letting me have thios baby Evan. I wanted it the day he bought it. ;)
Flies like dream and is so stable. Flies around like a trainer, except that the pucker factor is bigger when low or in a dive :D
Hope you guys like it as much as I do.

well, the plane was sold a while back. I just couldn't handle the one piece 101" wing in my garage and for transportation. Unfortunately all my inflight pictures as well as all other pics got lost during a cpu crash (virus) a couple of month ago.
These Stukas fly awesome though. You will like it Hisham. As for servos, I believe I had some high torque Futaba analog ones in there. I already bought it rigged and dressed up.

I too flew the Ziroli Stuka with G62. SMoothest flying plane I ever flew, but so much work and a real knee knocker every time I flew it. Built it as well. Way too much work and time and money. Then I got into electrics and started having fun!
Enjoy
Tried uploading a movie file of my stuka,but doesnt show up for some reason.
Picture did, and I used the upload manager and .wmv file. Go figure.
