finaly got the RN D spit flying with the BF110 ,.,. no pic together though as it was realy a test flight for the 110,.,.it runs a pair of direct drive 600 brushed motors,.,.which,.to be honest aint up to the job,.bit like trying to pull away in your car in 4th gear!!,.,.lol,.,..,anyway it flew!!,.,.but a pair of 480 outrunners is next so it wont fly again untill those are fitted,.,.,.the spit kept up ok with lipo power so there should be some fairly goog pics comming soon,,.....

The Bf110 looks great, who makes the model?
Sadly the 'Zestorer', for the crews of them anyway, was no match for either Spitfires or Hurricanes during the BoB. If caught they sometimes formed 'Circles of Death' then made a mad dash for the French coast.

Bulli, you seemed to be putting me in the "design & manufacture" game....
I'm honestly no Barns Wallice!LOL:D
No, this will not be in kitform (from me anyway) this is a backroom "what if" and custome job, scratch built!
I may pass you the designs and the foam profiles if Squadron leader don't want them, if your interested after I'm done? which I would improve....and I have thought of sorting foam formers for the fusalarge making her "total foam" with ply strenghteners?
I know theres been a lot of interst, and I did say to Squadron leader if they payed for the contruction materials and tools I'd do it.....so at the moment it's mine, and on delievery becomes theres......

well after a month or so i finaly got the 110 in the air again,..,what a differance with the brushless motors/lipo power,.,.must be easy half the weight it use to be.for those of you guys that hant flown a biggish twin ,.they fly realy no differnt from these parkzones,just not as manoverble but in a way easyer to fly!...heres a pic,.,.but like many its now moved onto a new home to make way for a 73" span JU88 plus a "airworld" 73" span HE111.the 110 came along by chance realy.,n.,wasnt my first choice of a twin,.although it was a nice plane i always wanted a medium bomber..,Anyway one of these two will have some sort of smoke system fitted to one of the motors..,dont ask me how but il find a way!... heres a link to one system im thinking of useing,
