What new Propeller models would you like to see next?

[Woodcock]

Because there wasn't a TV series made featuring them.

You know Ya have a point. I have a friend, that always reiterates, "those Hellcats & Wildcats shot down the Japanese & Germans when there planes had real pilots in them". His quote not mine. But I kinda see where he's coming from.

I could see Flightline coming out with a Hellcat some day. I don't know why more people don't make a Wildcat?

I think the landing gear is what stops most manufacturers from doing a Wildcat. I have to applaud LX for doing it... but it’s foam and smaller than I’d like. The PZ Wildcat was one of my first 4ch planes, and turned me into a Wildcat fan for life.

if I have my history right, AVRO Canada was Canada Car & Foundry during the war, and produced Hurricanes, Lancasters and evening Curtiss Helldivers among others. I would certainly be in for a good sized Lancaster, say 80” - 100” wingspan.

I had to jump in and say you're almost historically right. Most Canadian manufacturing of aircraft during wartime was bought, owned and contracted by Hawker Siddeley Group of UK. Victory Aircraft, a Government owned company in Toronto, which was bought by Hawker, made Lancasters and even one Lincoln, which was a bigger Lancaster. National Steel Car of Hamilton made Avro Anson's; Hawker Hurricanes; Westland Lysanders and Handley Page bombers. Canada Car & Foundry, Thunder Bay; made Hawker Hurricanes and Curtiss Helldivers under licence. Packard USA made Merlin engines for Canadian Lancasters. Other American companies made radio equipment for British/Canadian planes. A.V.Roe or AVRO, was bought by Hawker and Victory Aircraft became AVRO Canada after the war. They built modern aircraft until '62.....

For nostalgia I’d like a Piper Tomahawk. Got my wings on them back in the day, so I have a soft spot for em.

The list of warbirds I’d like is... long. Mostly under dogs, oddballs and unsung heroes: I-16 Rata; Vickers Wellington; Bristol Beaufighter; Boulton-Paul Defiant; Grumman F4F Wildcat; XF5F Skyrocket. I could go on...

I'm surprised at your list. I would think it'd be mostly AVRO Canada products.

Now that MRC/FW have entered the civilian aircraft world with the Airliner, I would love to see a FL King Air!!!!!

King Air would be great! 1700-1800mm span!

[Valkpilot]

Those small tires do not look grass field friendly! I also would like a Dora, a very sinister looking Warbird!

That, and those spindly struts. They must have been hard to land.

[Tim K]

A Westland Whirlwind would be interesting and different.
Or some between the wars planes, like a peashooter or one of my favorites, the Bristol Bulldog. This was a 50" balsa kit I designed and built about 10-12 years ago. It flew pretty good.

As a twin: ME-410

As a four engine: P3C-Orion

How about a de Havilland Twin Otter?

Hi Hobbyist2, wow, 2 posts in 3.5 years, thanks for coming back! That almost makes me want to produce a Twin Otter just to celebrate! What livery would you choose, if there was a Twin Otter available?

I have always liked the Twin Otter, in both land and sea configurations. I think as a high wing twin, it would make an excellent RC model. I used to have a balsa Twin Otter by VQ, and it ran great on floats. Next to the Grumman Albatross, the Twin Otter is probably one of my favorite twin engine floatplanes.

[axerhand1976]

atleast 1600mm, 1800 would be wonderful. make it 2 piece wing so it will fit in small cars.

[DJLEWIS]

I'd like to see a nicely done Skyraider. Maybe with a wingspan between 1200mm and 1600mm. Also with some ordnance and fuel tanks.

[Saltydawg]

I'd love to see more of the Navy workhorses - the Helldiver, the Dauntless and the Avenger

[F22trainer]

Don’t know if anyone knows about this, with all the interest In the the Mixmaster...
