[@cabsbass]

I'm looking to get my first rc aircraft. It's obvious i shouldn't start with something like this, but wow would i like to work up to a beauty like this one day.

Masters Of The Air(waves)! Oh yeah- I’m designing a working bomb bay for that baby- check me if you want the design - it should hold a half dozen eggs. Gotta get a big frying pan for a target! Background info- that 1875mm B-17 is the last plane the talented Mr Laing designed for the long defunct HC Hobby. His previous designs for them included the 1200mm FW-190 with the short legs and massive plastic nose (GREAT flier- check our “Chin Scrapin’ Tail Draggers” video- I put Dynam FW legs on it, and it looks FABULOUS), the original 1400mm B-25, which was immediately copied by FMS, and the only really scale 1400mm Mosquito foamie. (Both of those planes had the first plastic door with sequencer landing gear doors!) Right after they produced the Mosquito, HC folded- what a drag! (I ultimately enlivened the flaps and bomb bay on mine- still haven’t made a video of it, though) Like on the B-17, his Mosquito design has wing mounted ESCs, inside the working leading edge radiators at the wingroot - I love it! HC Hobby never produced the B-17, and Mr Liang opened his own factory and started with the B-17 as his first plane. (I call him Mr Liang because that’s how Suzanne at HC Hobby always referred to him, and I never learned his first name) Much better decal set nowadays, by the way. And yeah, magnets are the way to go for the ball turret. Kenny smart man.

[@Secondrunnerup613]

There is already a 3d print bomb bay out there

[@Secondrunnerup613]

And 3d printed bombs for it as well.

[@ShadowOppsRC]

BUS MAN! Thanks for sharing!

[@WigglfingerzRC]

Only issue I had was with the cowling and set screws. Didn’t exactly line up. Tiny tiny tiny.

[@mrk8212]

nice looking plane.. but 11 minutes into the video and you are still peeling tape off the packaging, my short attention span is used up.

[@craigbeaven8445]

Not heard from you Bro , You ok ?????????

[@manicfour]

Just got one from ebay. I swear it's got to be fake. My manual doesn't look like that. Don't see any wing spars are where they could go. Looks kinda strange to me right now. Came like New in box parts still in plastic. My manual is color and full of Chinese kids and people poseing with it. Idk what I have my hands on right now. Looks the part just visually

[@hangarfiftyone3527]

WOW I'd like you to keep me updated on this as you go, even send me some photos ; what does your lower ball turret look like ? does it rotate ?
