Hi..

I need some help.. I about to build a 1:5 scale rc replica of Rote (red) 13..

I was wondering if any of you cold help me with the colors used on the camo scheme on the wings.. I have a basic idea of the the sides and tail, but are unsertan about the wings.. I dont think that it exist any photos of this plane.. I havent been able to find any, but maybe ther exist any from his JG... Any help here would be apriciated, as this RC plane are to be build for extrem scale details..

Best regards

Sandman

Sandman!

Colours are RLM 74/75 for the upper sides. Undersides are RLM 76 light blue.

Maybe this link is helpful:

Thanks Simon..

Now a final question, does it exist any photos of the Rote 13?
I really want my RC FW190 to be as close as posible in details..

Re: Heinrinch "Heinz" Bar FW-190A-7 Rote 13

New questions..

Is the base color of the fuse RLM 76..? I would guess a light grayish color, perhaps RLM 78..?
What about the Rudder? Was this White..? Have seen some drawings/models of both white and Light gray\blue (base color of fuse) What is correct..?

Allso, did the Rote 13 have the lower cowl painted yellow..?

What color was the wheel bays painted in..?
What was the cocpit interior color..?

Oyherwise this should be correct(?)
RLM 04 Yellow : Lower cowl
RLM 13 Red : Band and insigna number 13
RLM 74 Dark green : Top fuse and wing, camo scheme
RLM 75 Dark Grey : Top fuse and wing, camo scheme
RLM 76 Light blue Below wing/fuse and Stab\Elevator
RLM 21 White : Tail and Cross
RLM 22 Black : Cross


Sorry for all my questions, but I really want to do this right, the first time..

Best regards..

Sandman

Have you tried Hyperscale.com's forums? They are more modelling related. At first glance I would concur with your color selections, but then I haven't built a model in 25 years.....

Thanks for the link Jim..
I hope they will be able to help me with my question...

My goal is to make this 1:5 scale replica of Heinz Bar, so close to life as possible, without goinig overboard with a weight penalty.. Hopefully it will fly as nice as the fullsize..

Anyway, thanks again...

Best regards

Sandman

Did you have any luck finding out about this AC Sandman and I'd love to see the results if you have any to show. It's been a while, I presume you have finished this project by now?
