Very nice. Merry Christmas!

Fantastic!

Excellent, it looks really terrific in the air!

Are you happy with the servo as retract setup? How is it holding up over time?

Congratulations on the model, it flies really well. You also have a nice airfield with an asphalt landing strip. But is it always warm and sunny in that place?

amazing!!! thumbs up!

This looks fantastic! Above and beyond!

I want one is there any other options for the covering besides tissue ,not monocote either

great work!

excellent work

Super Cool! Love the folding wings and the rotating retracts!

Nice looking airplane is this going to be covered in monocote or tissue type? Love the folding wings nice touch

Congratulations beautiful work and beautiful aircraft, and finally the cherry on top of the cake: folding wings, you are great. We hope to see the plans published on Model Avition.

👏👏👏

Do you have a bill of materials? I have purchased the short kit and would like to get the rest of what is needed before it arrives

Derek, I just read your article in this months Model Aviation. She flies beautifully. Don't know how I missed you had a TH-cam channel; I've watched several of your podcasts with Jay. I'll be catching up on your channel. Can't wait to see your next build- I will definitely get my vote in.

Servo on the mains... was that the 9g? I just read the article. The metal gear 4.8g was in the nose, but I was trying to figure out the main gear in the wings.

Awesome

Hello, anyone could tell me how to do a camouflage covering on a WWII scale model? Can we print the cammo on the paper or should I use several diferent colors? High performance is not that much of an issue as they are Guillow's (rubber) kits I use just for fun in the park and flying around memorials in Normandy. Thanks!

Now that is impressive!

So cool man!

Nice model, nice flying, and nice field! I wish I had a nice paved runway….

Looks great, but no rear prop? How about adding a windmill with nearly feathered blades for scale appearence? I know, it would add drag, but would look cooler. 🙂

Wow Derek! Another gorgeous 335. Your plans are beautiful as well.

Very nice.

I just recieved your plans for the P-40B. I'm currently looking over the plans. Ordering parts. This will be my first build. Thank you for the videos. They will help me alot. Very well and precisely done.

Yep! H 219

Great tutorial! You have awesome computer and presentation skills. Looking forward to more!

Very nice

Great plane and tips. My son (12y) flies some small foam planes but want to fly large scale warbirds, do you have any advise about a trainer plane that help him develop skills to fly warbirds? apprentice sts is my first option but i do not know there is other mor appropriate plane. thanks!!

Interesting. You're effectively doing a physical analogue of what computer 3D modellers call "UV unwrapping".

Great to see a video dedicated to landing gear, it seems to be a somewhat neglected topic. And the model looks really cool as well!

These details make the model increasingly realistic. There would like a European distributor both for your kits and accessories. Having an example of wheels and uprights of the P40 wheels value $ 13.50, shipping costs of this goods in Italy $ 35. Anyway congratulations for your beautiful funny models to build and pilot

Does the kit include any electronics?

Lovely flight, and great looking model, thanks for sharing

This method is not good for free flight model builders. Japanese tissues with an acquired skill of sprayed dilute acrylics is skill the best. There's no shortcut for this if you want it done right. Also, it's never mentioned that printed colors are fugitive, especially the red, and starts looking like shit very soon even when protective UV gloss or matt finish is added also increasing weight. Nothing beats old fashioned dope sprayed on water shrunk tissue.

Congratulations on the successful flight of this fantastic model. More views in just 6 days than the last 2 have recorded in 4 months! Its obvious why - this one is a real beauty, the queen of your fleet.

congratulations you are a very good and prolific designer. Nice model, nice flight and nice video. I hope to find the project on Model Avition

Very nicely done! Rare and cool model, and it seems to fly really well...very light.

Late to the game here Derek, but very impressed with your vids so far. Will be extremely helpful in my future build. Thank you !

Wow that looks and flies great. Do you have plans or a short kit? Gotta love sabres.

That flies so good D rock! Cant wait to read the article. Do you have a list of all your plans?

Wingspan, weight?

push pulls rule...it's the only way to fly ask Claude

Beautiful job once again Derek! Nice job on the video, as well.

Very nice flight! really cool!

beautiful flight, well done Derek! congratulations! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This model looks super cool! When do you think it will be available?

WOW, with retracts. We need more buildings videos from you. great work
