      What do you think of a BF-110? Quite a few years ago Dynam made one (1500mm), and you still see them around once in a while. But the difference between having a Dynam model and not having a model at all is, well, a very small difference. Flightline could do a lot better, and it would be a nice addition to the twins, P-38, Tigercat, OV-10....and I guess the A-12 (half of a B-24).

        I’m good with just about any twin. I think a large Beech18 or Lockheed10 would be cool as well.

            Of the WWII German twins, I'd like to see an Me-410. To go with the new Flightline Mossie of course....

              Hmmm. The A-12 was the Curtiss Shike, a single engine pre-WWII aircraft.

              Did you mean the Douglas A-20 Havoc? Or?

                Which A-12?

                This one?



                Or this one?

                    Oh sorry, I was just making a dumb joke....Flightline has made several twins and then also B-24, so I thought half of a B-24 should count as another twin, and should be called an A-12 . But I like both those posted by Valkpilot - especially that second one could make for very efficient use of a shipping container, lol. By the way, the wikipedia article on the A-12 is interesting, I didn't realize it saw significant operation before being replaced by SR-71. It was not just a one-off prototype on the way to the SR-71.

                        I miss the old Viet Nam era, "Iron Bird" known as the Douglas A1 Skyraider. There have been a handful of RC models produced, long out of production. Perhaps too old, too slow, too ugly and irrelevant at this point. I still fly the old Durafly 1100mm that I have saved from destruction. Switched it to a 4S system and it really moves out. A 1200mm or 1400mm properly built and set up would look good out there....

                            How about this one:
                            Roses are red
                            Violets are blue
                            I want an XB-70
                            That's midsized and new.

                                OK, Here's my lovely poem, containing a subtle hint at the plane I would like to see in 1600mm:

                                Roses are red
                                Violets are blue
                                The 20mm cannon on a Bf-109 can destroy anything, including both rhyme and meter.

                                    I’ll take a 1600 P-51B. “Berlin Express” would be magnificent. Quite a story too. The original and the restored one.

                                        I think an A26 invader would be a winner, I have never seen one offered to us in foam. About 1500 mm will be just right.

                                          BTW, the Dynam Bf-110 is still available, if you need a 110. I actually really like mine. Zero trouble ever. Large and informative discussion thread over on RCG.

                                          While Dynam models often need a little extra work, the distance from no model to a Dynam model is much, much further than from a Dynam Model to a FW or FMS. I have really enjoyed my Bf-110, Me-262, PBY, B-26 and Cessna 310 and all have been nearly trouble free.

                                          The color scheme choices that a Dynam makes for their warbirds usually inspire me to do a repaint....:)

                                          Getting back to the topic, the next twin warbird that I desire the most is an A-26! Seems to be popular as a next warbird in these sort of threads.

                                          I would rather see FW fill in some important missing subjects like the A-26 before duplicating a warbird available from another source.
