i do have some posted in a thread somewhere on the BBS, that was right when i received it and had the pieces all laid out on a kingsized bed, it looked big then but seems to have grown while building lol

Here is a photo of one of my projects.  I am scratch building a 1/12th scale P51.  I have a .15 engine for it.  I have plan sheets for a bunch of different aircraft in 1/12th.  It will take me the rest of my life to build them all.

Here is my latest project..
Just got the Turbine for it



http://www.avonds.com/F-104G.htm

Putting this engine in it

http://www.jetcatusa.com/p80.html

Avond's F-104 Starfighter, should do in the high 180mph zone, Havent decided on the paint scheme yet, thinking about doing it as an NF-104 as flown by NASA, and which Chuck yeager had a bad spin in, and got burned during his ejection.

I will post some pics once it is completed.

This will be my 3rd Turbine, along with about 10 Electric Ducted Fans, which each do from 100-160mph..

My fastest is the BVM Maverick turbine, pushes right @ 200mph.  (speed limited by the AMA, it CAN go faster, but its against the regs @ an AMA field to do so)


My new "warm up" plane is my Habu 32.. nice bird, its a smaller EDF, but flies "big"..
Does ~140, and is very "groovy"

Before that I used my Sapac L-39, similar stats to the Habu, but smaller, and not as "groovy" does about 120mph...
