Cool

Wow, this model came out really nice since I last saw this build thread.

I can join today. No microphone, but I'm quick at typing.

I agree, this does sound fun. Unfortunately, I am not available much for anything anymore because of school and college essays etc... It depends when it is. I'm always under the name Crasher when I want people to know who I am, but I have not been on in a while. You were kind enough to send me...

When I saw the cockpit I did a happy dance. :) I love modelled cockpits. :D

Your pilot figure looks like the offensive coordinator for the New York Giants! LOL

I agree, I can't imagine what a chore it would be to go through all those hours it takes (for me at least) to build a model you're not fond of.

I like the obscure models. :D

I have to agree. The DC-3 (civilianized C-47s or whatever you want to call them) has grown on me. It really is a nice looking plane inside and out.

Thanks!

When I load the Tu-95, the left outermost props do not appear. I see no motion blur, nothing. And I know they're there, they just are invisible unless seen from the exact side or if the props stop. You don't have this issue?

You're definitely right here. A Lancaster would be a better addition. It wouldn't make sense to do a Shackleton before a Lancaster has been made. Also I don't think rf can handle all of the contra-rotating props.

Ok, that makes sense Uncle Twist. Thank you.

What I don't understand is how RC aircraft is a federal issue. Isn't that a state issue? Shouldn't they let the states decide what they want to do about this?

Take a look at the Avro Shackleton if you have not already. It is a more advanced Lancaster with contra-rotating props to allow for a wider fuselage. This was the first british bomber to ever have contra-rotating propellers. A wider fuselage allows the plane to fit depth charges and be more...
