Hi guys ....I will try to get some pics of it . I don't have a digital camera yet .I ordered the Balsa USA Nieuport 17 . Also ordered the aluminum cowl,wheels, vickers gun and a full decal set for it .Hehe ..I bet it will be the only WW1 fighter to have a fire breathing fuel injected supercharged 4 stroke .My very trusty and super strong YS 120 sc . I think it is going to be a super combo

Balsa USA

I also have a keen interest in this thread. My WW 1 plane will of course be E-Powered, but I'm interested in the observations Kevin makes. Goin' to Oskosh this summer and will side trip to Balsa USA for pickup of a kit.

Balance is not usually a problem when you fly with NiCads.

P.S. For Jim McIntyre: My 1:1 Sabre was a lot of fun at times therefore a toy, and it was scale!
