I thought I would share with you ladies and gents the Fokker DVII build my husband is working on for this seasons' RC flight. It has an Evolution 0.60 NX nitro engine and is about 1/6 scale - the wingspan is as large as I am tall - 64.6 inches, length 49.8 inches and tops about 10 pounds..
It is a kit, but a lot of the parts Peter has scratch built.
I painted the pilot, because the stock pilot they had was... ugh.
See if you recognise the plane, AND the pilot.
It has 6 servos, 5 control and 1 special - the pilot's head turns.

I have more, but Photobucket is being pokey tonight.
I'll post more if anyone is interested in seeing, and will post a vid of the maiden.
