          Actually, it's Japanese "cousin" the Ohka would probably be better because then you got a pilot in there.

            There was also a manned version of the V1.

                Yes, but not as well known as the Ohka. It was featured in the movie "Operation Crossbow".

                  At the end of the war, pretty much anything with wings in Japan was loaded with explosives for a one-way trip. Except for bats, that was a US thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat_bomb

                      Maybe a Freewing twin-70mm Private jet to replace the old Dynam Turbojet. They look cool in the air and handle well. Perhaps not a favorite on the big "Wish List"; but the AL37 is a lonely jet in the "Civilian" category...

                          I think Alpha's been doing a little tinkering on the side with a full sized version of a plane quite a few people asked for::

                            I'd tap that, but the retracts would be quite a challenge and fixed gear just wouldn't cut it.

                                  Howdy relatively new to this forum so if some things are weird please forgive me. Anyway I have a rather unknown and super rare ww2 airplane that I would love to see made into a foam rc model I really don't care about the size. Just would love to see this awesome looking pane in rc model form.


                                  it is none other than the HEINKEL HE100-D1 it was know for being the fastest ww2 plane at the time it it had the fighter role primarily in mind. However unfortunately it never went into production. Here is a Wikipedia link if you want more info about the full scale https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinkel_He_100

                                    Millerrc Welcome to Hobby Squawk! That would certainly be one that is worth modeling in either wood or foam. We need more axis planes to choose from.

                                      I agree with Millerrc that the Heinkel He-100 could be a great addition to the German collection. I didn't know this plane existed. The big wigs in the Luftwaffe had a falling out with Ernst Heinkel about design and mechanical issues he was having with his fighter planes. The Air Ministry told him that they wanted Messerschmidt to build fighters and Heinkel to concentrate on bombers. Heinkel was angered by that decision until his death. Anyway, The He-100 would look fantastic out there in 1200mm to 1600mm EPO model running between 4S and 6S....

                                        Since Motion RC is bringing most, if not all, of the Black Horse line in, maybe the He-112 will be available soon. I do like the He-100 a little better though.

                                          I have seen that he112 from black horse it dose look pretty good but the thing i noticed about the black horse planes are they are not 100% correct as far as the shape of the plane to the full scale and unfortunately the cowl on there model is not correct and I have seen this on there gaint scale models like the zero and p-40. Back on the he 100 the only other model iv seen is plans for a kit build from Jerry bates id recommend checking his drawings out he has drawn some warbirds that also don't get a lot of notoriety. If they do make it balsa I shure hope as heck they get the shape right.
