Dogfight Tournament - Not A WW2 replica

2,269 Mickk  5.0 years ago

This is the 'threatened' (lol) Nobler entry for the Dogfight Tournament.

It follows all of the rules.

The original plans for the control line model were done in 1951 and it does resemble an aircraft from WWII.

I'm hoping it will at least get through the first round or two.

Anyway, on to the important info.

Yes! It is fully flyable, it will even take off and you can land it without blowing up.

Controls as per usual, no special stuff, even the guns are stock.

There are the maximum number of engines, which gives the strange look to the front end.

Note: A good question was asked on the page for this Tournament, are Turbo Props allowed?
Too bad if they aren't, I wonder how many people have used them. heh
