As if the new 109G wasn’t enough.. Have a look at some MORE eye candy!!!

I wonder if we will have to wait for SEFF before Hobby Lobby starts to carry these 2 gems?

So, what do you guys think?

Yeah that silver camo does look nice. If I get one I would change the scheme to make it look like this one...

Yepper, a beauti there for sure.

Here is the twin I have been hoping for from either Alfa or Flying Styro. Flying Styro gets the cigar here.

I hope they don't sit on this one to long.

The BF110 has been released for a while by FSK already, but not sure if HL will be selling. If not, there are always other places one could purchase from...

I was flying my Bf-110 at the Tullahoma electric fly this past weekend. It is a sweet flyer and can even be flown off landing gear if you want.

Here is a link to the video of it flying without gear:

You know... it's funny, I LOVE the Mossy, and I like the Scorpio WWII warbirds. There slightly larger size really makes a difference. That said, the Mossy is so out of scale I could not bring myself to own one.

Any chance HL will carry the "Tony" I started this thread on. Or, for that matter the New ME-109?

Also with electric motors making more and more power cheaper these days HL might want to reconsider stocking the prementioned Scorpio line of WWII Models <Spitty, Zero, FW-190, SNJ>. Perhaps the cost to power a larger model just a few years back hurt there ability to sell. I do know they are quickly gobbled up now when you can find them.

Thanks for listining.

We should have the first couple of "Tony's" any day now, so you should see them up on our website in about a month. The new Bf-109G's should be up within a week.

HEY, "Hiflyer". I read a thread about the new bf-109. On it you said that the bf-109 would be up on the web site by the 20th. It is now the 26th and there is yet to be them on your site. whats going on? updates?

Hey guys

I should learn, as soon as I say a date that I believe is accurate, something happens to change this. In this case it was customs. We did receive the shipment yesterday and I expect that they will be up on our site before the weekend.

Sorry for the delay,

Mike, do you have any info on the B-25? I have the P-38 on the way and would like to know some more info on it if you have any.

Thanks,

I have seen the B-25 in person and the detail is trully amazing. I will have one as soon as they are available, and Hobby Lobby will offer this as soon as available.

I hope that you enjoy your P-38, they are great flyers.

I am including a flight shot of the new Ki-61 Tony, HL will have these in a matter of weeks. Super flyer, very easy to launch with its long wings and light weight.

How does the intake hold up on the belly durring landing? It makes the P-51's look small!!

Thanks for the info.

The model is so light (14 oz.) that landings are very slow, almost no slide at all. So far so good.

Saw the FSK KI-61 in the flesh today. Model seemed VERY stout. Even more so then the “new” ME-110.

The one I saw will no doubt be featured in a upcoming magazine <Fly Rc?> article.

It’s even better looking in person guys!!

I agree. I don't understand why there are so few parkflying EDF ME-262s. I think they would be a hot seller, with the cool factor. I've built a few from scratch, since its my favorite jet, and there are so few available.
I noticed the Spit avatar. Ever get around to building that thing?

The Tony looks real nice, though.

Yes those are two very nice models, I have been planning on making a cute little profile me-262 and powering it with maybe 2 edf 50s. Just a fun little project, Ive already finished a profile depron b-25 with a 40" span

No there isn't a thread but the thing was so simple to make. All I did was drew out a fuse on my sheet of depron and made a wing of proportionate size. The wing and fuse are both flat sheet depron. No airfoil, formers of any sort. after that was complete I proceeded to cut out the tail I figured out where to position the wing and cut out a slit for it to slide into while adding about 3degrees of incidence. I centered the wing and glued it into place then I added 1/2 in triangle balsa stock to the bottom of the wing where it meets the fuse for support. I added the horizontal stab in the same fashion. The engine naccels where also installed in the same manner . I used a spruce stick of the appropriate width and highth for the motor mount which ran along the center of the naccels. I used two GWS EPS 350 on a C gear for power and along with a 3 cell 1320mha lipo and a single 30amp esc. The plane flies very well and the motors have pleanty of power without any over heating of any of the equipment.EASY AND FUN :)
