Bolth of the FW's have stock geard 480's with the 11.1V 2200mah Li-po batteries. I painted the wing tips yellow on bolth Aircraft to make them a little easier to see in the air.

"Green 6" was my first parkzone warbird. It has to have at least 100 flights, I've lost count. "Gray 4" is fairly new, maybe 30 flights. Bolth have some weathering done and Green 6 was painted with Tamiya acrylic RLM Green and an Aztec 320 airbrush.

The F6F Hellcat is by Great planes. It has not been flown yet. Its only 14 oz. so it won't handle any wind. We don't have many calm days here in Iowa.

Enjoy!!!:)

What an awesome piece of work. For an American, you are ok :)

Why the Focke and not the Mustang?

I have wanted a mustang for some time, I guess I'm just waiting for the right model to come along. The PZ is cheap, but leaves much to be desired in flight characteristics and design flaws. The Art-Tech mustang flies well but its markings are to far fetched (for my taste). Alfa's are too expensive. I am building a warbirdskits.com Ki-43 Oscar at the present. The Oscar is a great flyer and I have a long standing love of Japanese WW2 aircraft. I'm the "Meatballer" of our little flying group. PZ needs to release a revamped P-51 B/C model with retracts and flaps, RTF for $200. Then I'll have my Mustang.:D

Great shots of your FW, please see attached a couple of shots of mine.

I aged them using simple black spray paint. I have also aged my spitfire, and it makes it look so much better.

This plane looks amazing in the air, when you do low fly pasts

Like the paint mods that you posted, but wanted to ask if you could take a look at my thread on FW190 pitching up, as I am trying to fathom out what is causing this, other than the elevator, which I fixed.............

Thanks
