Hugh Wiedman Nicely done! It looks badass! That's a great scheme for the Eurofighter.

Hugh Wiedman, yes, little flyin' tigers. Best, LB

Finally finished my 8S Eurofighter in the Bronze Tiger livery. This is definitely one of the best EDF's from Freewing in terms of the quality of the foam and hardware. Finished it off with 4 coats of clear gloss Spar Urethane giving it a nice sheen and somewhat harder surface.

The Real Thing:



The only thing I changed slightly was having the orange bleed into a yellowish orange on the canards, tail and outside wingtips.




Now my F-18 Tiger Meet has some company. If I'm lucky, they'll get together and make a litter of cubs for me!

I feel weird when I look at that jet...

It's like the shape rings a bell but the brain expects to see something else, hahaha!

SHARP SU35M

enforced no fly days as antibiotics kick in on tooth infection gave me chance to revise the canopy and battery access bays on Sharp Nose Su. :-

Congrats Paul!

She does look a bit funny to me but she sure flies good!
Well done!

Thanks, It was something to do over the winter while waiting for replacement SU35 Fuselage which was out of stock. I had balsa, I had an old Yak 130 canopy and enough spare bits to make a model. If I had a different canopy I would have moved it forward for a more traditional jet look but using the canopy I had in the positions I chose made canopy and access to battery in one unit easier and allowed me to add strength and rigidity to the front section and nose gear mounting area. Working in balsa I had to find a way of attaching it structurally to the rear body section of the foam SU35, hence the majority of the forward body line is below the main wing level. There was logic behind my madness ( well according to me anyway ). I may yet move the canopy position forward if I can carve it out of the right grade of foam and integrate the shape with the sharp nose ( maybe more like a Mig 23/27 )but for now I am just enjoying flying it. I had a couple of flights today after jacking up the nose leg and minor adjustments to gear down, flaps down and elevator mixes and I now have smooth take offs with less elevator input and a good landing glide slope , 10% power and flair to nose up for gentle soft landing on grass. 3.5 mins flight time 22% battery left for basic mixed flying.

OV-10 Bronco. My Brother was nice enough to give this Flight Line plane to me for my Birthday. While I was assembling, I decided to try a few different styles of Camouflage. photo taken after first test flight. I like the way this one flies. Has great ground handling and a dream to land I give it two thumbs up.

Long time no MiG!
