Does anyone know who is still producing scale kits. I know Chris Handegard stopped which were the ones I have been flying. I am needing a few to replace some damaged planes.

I was wanting a p47 or something like that. I would prefer a American plane than a Japanese since so many people have zeros.

Don,

Hatrick is still making the Mustang, Bf109, and Zero. The homepage of RCCA has a link to his new web page which is hosted by a club.

I'll see what all plans I have Don.
Would the TA-154 meet the requirements to be put on the scale approved list?

Twin piston engine night fighter/attack aircraft, flew in July 1943, saw active duty with Nachtjagdgeschwader_3 although it says it's an unknown number. Just takes one right?

I think it will take 2 years to get it approved

BulletProof Models kits anyone? I am flying back to Fl. to move my stuff from self storage so NOW would be a good time to contact me if interested. I will be in Fl. for ONE WEEK from 2/4/14 - 2/11/14. With limited time to devote and also limited inventory. My foam cutting apparatus is disassembled and packed so when the kits I have cut are exhausted I won't be able to do much for the time being. I had something like parts for 10 or so of each design, P-47, Spitfire, and Oscar so please don't wait till last minute as I will not be able to do it. Rickey Valdez may be able to ship for me once I go back to Ca. but no more parts cutting it looks like. Call or text me @ 561-723-2440. The grasshopper.
