very nice to see that you guys are starting to thing about the guys with the bad landing strips and improve the retracts on the newer models...very cool...this field looks bumpy enough, so its pretty close to ours here and i have to say the B-17 made a good impression, great looking model by the way...nice work guys, cheers
Interesting. Looks a lot better than that Lancaster V2 nightmare. I am interested in Coastal Command scheme. I will follow reports on RC Groups before I decide to place and order.
Can I get some help on the correct CG--the manual shows 38-45 mm, (1 1/2 inches) and the picture shows measure from the nose (cant be right must be centimeters) Also what is being used for the battery(s) hold down-nothing came in the box---
15'' TO 18'' for CG .15.5 to 16" is the sweet spot. Check out this link for battery mod for adding battery tray www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1463141&page=461
Awesome to see you are coming with improved version of old great models. Are you coming up with a new DC-3 yours is one of the best out there but is been discontinued. I just received today the DC-3 white kit. I know people love it but complain about the non scale nose that should be shorter and rounder and some of the cockpit windows, some should be short and other should be a little bigger. I am not that picky but for sure I would love to get a newer improved version more scale looking. LOVE the silver colors. Oh I also bought 2 a complete Komet ME-163 a two white kits. You are discontinuing this one too, are you coming with a new version of the Komet too?
After spending all that money it I'm now left wondering, why don't you label the motors instead of making it so I have to buy extra equipment to figure it out before installation? Mine also came without any instructions. Pretty disappointing. The piece look cool at least.
Too bad they don't sell it anymore and I've never been able to get a replacement chin turret.. The best B-17 I've seen in foam just sucks hobbyking sells it if and when they want to. Needs to be sold by someone else who sells parts for it instead of a handful of parts .. sad .
Youre right,i know what you mean.I build a balsa kit also.But when i get my calculator and put all the singel parts together.Wood is amazing stuff,i like it.But the chinese plane´s are pretty cheap....
Chin Turret = Perfect FPV camera housing!

I have the version with the yellow rudder, this plane came with all the graphics factory applied, a big plus.
Great looking plane. Have added to to buy list
what a beautifully scaled model, nice job
I was going to ask the same question.... On sale for less than 12 months and been Out of stock for months????
The bombardiers bubble is a perfect place for if you want to put a camera in it
Nice to see you are going to do the RAF paint scheme. Not many people would have known the B17 was used by allied forces too.
Awesome plane!
So Great stuff!!!
Thanks so much!

What happened to this particular model?
"panel lines, they were like trenches before" :D:D:D:D
Can the nose house an fpv camera?
Does anyone know of this will come back 2020
No but it will come back in 2021 ;). Stock is on the way to warehouses at this very moment. Stuart
Any one installed a retractable tail wheel, as im thinking of doing this mod on mine
Why is freight so High. I would like to buy but not when the freight is so high.
So what would it be to Australia???

I want one.
Must be an "Um" festival in town.

I like Balsa constructing I feel it is more rewarding than having it a.r.f....
Think about the price,Mr. Price when it is a balsa constructing..... ;-)
Think of the satisfaction you get after all the time you put into it & the joy you have in building it [ patience is a virtue my friend ] try one !!!
