Huge thanks to Warpath for partnering with us on this!!
I've been looking on your site but cant seem to find any plans or even a quick build kit.
I'm more looking for plans as I live in Germany and getting a kit and having it shipped here is expensive.
I have a group of friends that want to start doing some RC reenactments with WWII planes. We do some with tanks and other land vehicles but we love to fly model planes and we are looking at getting into foamboard ones before we look at more expensive options, especially sense the videos of doing fiberglass over the foamboard planes you have done.
I've been working on creating Airsoft mods for the different MM planes but instead of using Airsoft BBs they would fire custom paintballs sized at 6 and 8 mm so we can use that for doing dog fights and not shoot holes in our planes.
I tested plastic Airsoft BBs and they can shoot holes in one ply fiberglass and dent two ply fiberglass covered foamboard at higher joules or FPS for you in the USA.
It's not easy to do as the thickness of the gel wall has to be a certain thickness for it to not explode in the firing mechanism or in the barrel but at the same time it can't be too thick or there wont be enough paint in it to show on the planes. It's getting the thickness right so you can easily see when hit and not do much if any damage that is the main problem. The second problem is using an electronic firing system the gel has to be able to withstand that and with an air firing system it can make it so you have only a few shots before you have to exchange small canisters as to not be too heavy to lift off. The same problem goes for using the electronic firing system.
I've been working on it for about 3 years in my spare time. mostly on weekends. I'm a Welder and Machinist by trade and have been welding for over 25 years and have been a Machinist, off and on, for the last 20 years.
Please make it happen!

It is INCREDIBLE at 600.00$ instead of 6,000.00 plastic....and landing Gears and all that #1$.#2$.#3$ >>>>.... !!!!!!!!!! ? and .
Why is he like that? He normally is a bit better.
Think you guys can do a kit for the Northrop P-61 Black Widow?
Maybe come up with "additional kit" that would include retractable gears & lights we could add later if not during the original build?
