Cool. I saw the kit, but looks like I will scratch at some point. Graupner is closest so far. I'm hoping FSK or one of the Chinese will do eventually. I went to Schlessheim and check out their CASA...

I bought some off ebay, but they are so-so... based on old power systems too. I'd be interested in a 1/13 scale... already build fully scale gear for it ;)

Not that GWS is anything close to scale, but that one is a 109E. This one is a 109G. The E had squarish tips, and the G rounded ones, so yes, they are looking pretty scale. 3 bladed props work just...

I'm making scale landing gear for my 1/13 scale 190's, and wish I had the skill you have to make scale planes to go with it!

Don't have personal experience with this one, but you might be (much) better served with a FSK (which I do have) or an Alfa which are both much nicer.

Yeah, time and experience are about the only cure.
You need to build light, and should be able to build at about 13oz without landing gear.
Flaps are cool, but just make it heavier. I'll do it...

Also, if you crack up a wing or fuse, you are better off just getting the "slope soarer" version. You'll get the whole plane without motor for nearly the same price.
