I keep coming across these beautiful designs by Sidney Camm that unfortunately never left the drawing board. Here’s another - the P.1030 “Super Tempest”. It would have been a beauty to behold too and capable of over 500mph. Sadly it was put aside in favour of developing beautiful looking jet aircraft instead. Tally-ho chaps!

Many thanks! @USSR and @RCBOSS
@JettStorm and @DestinyAviation my thanks to you both!
Cheers buddy, (on iOS anyway!) I move one identical part on top of another and move it down until you get the split so it doesn’t glitch through - then with bits like elevators I move one half forwards/backwards one “notch” on the fine tuner and then one “notch” left / right. As you can see from my wing root it’s not always 100%, good luck! @CALVIN232
This really good gotta ask how you get the two colours so clean I usually get them flashing together or a gap must say the back wings didn’t need it
Ahahah! No problem @Tang0five
Cheers buddy, I don’t know where I’d be without the internet for inspiration! @CRJ900Pilot
@danman12 @Carbonfox1@SledDriver and @grizzlitn many thanks to you all once more!
By Jove! Humbled by your generosity once more! @GhostHTX Rather carelessly I’ve arsed around with the prop size and there’s now a disparity that I keep looking at in the profile view. Equally glaringly I’ve missed an air intake towards the front it seems.....ah, I should quit drinking.....
Very nice. Flies very well and looks stunning. And whats a couple of exploding ailerons between friends?
Tip top, old boy, tip top.
Cool!
@BogdanX @Razor3278 and @Kerbango thanks for sharing your support and interest!
Thanks @TheRussiansAreComing it’s got slightly more speed than I planned from the result of a buried jet - so maybe a little unfair in a shooting match so to speak!
Thanks muchly! @ChiChiWerx although there is trouble with the ailerons exploding with heavy banking at speed due to the two tone camo effect on wings.....
Pretty airplane, flies very nicely!
But is it a match for the Super Corsair? It's Sidney Camm, of course it bloody is.
