Do you use these types of small hinges in foam planes or just use strong tape for the hinge?

Great video, thanks 4 posting. Can you visibly see any seams from paper? Would using primer hide them then paint. How to cover over or around corners, bumps, taperered areas. Reason I ask is if I decide to cut paper to better go around curved areas would I see half a dozen cuts?

For sale?

I have the very same Hurricane powered by a Laser 180 since 2013. Always feels just a bit underpowered and not "high" on safety margins, especially on go-arounds. As for the landings, she can be landed really nicely but she will 95% of the time scrape one of her wingtips. As a result of the above, she's by far my least flown plane - with regard to Lasers, I consider them the best engines ever.

When I try to cut it makes double lines, do you know how to solve it?

English arrogance!

Interesting use of different mediums to get the weather effect, nice work.

Good day at the field 👍

Tricky crosswind landing for you there especially flying a warbird your undercarriage did well,on most planes it would have folded, well built sir.

Can it cut onto a white depron?

What should my first electric rc plane be ?

The Hurricane is way easier to fly than any Spitfire....Put it on Petrol, it will consume 70% less fuel....and cleaner...even on 25 to 1 ratio...Glo Fuel typically has a 17 % oil content, the Nitro residue creates Nitric Acid as a by product and rots bearings....😳😏🇬🇧

15:45 Please tell your mate that portrait filming is a crime against humanity.

That Laser Merlin sounds almost as good as the full size Merlin Ron 🙂👍It's such a shame that Laser Engines has closed down. cheers Paul

Hello Ron! The Hurricane is a beautiful plane and a good flight. I also have the Hurricane but as an electric plane and made of foam! Greetings Thomas from Lübeck

I usually set up different rates for a new model then alter to what I think is best. As I had changed Tx I wanted to make sure I had different settings to play with but now that it’s sorted I can revert to 1 main set of control throws. Another I do is have flight modes so that I can switch between them for different parts of a flight such as take off and landing the advantage being that each flight mode can have its own set of trims. Unless the model is a 3D one I don’t believe in having more than 30% expo.

Lovely plane and motor. I don’t like using rates as it’s just another switch to remember, I use full rates all the time and have plenty of exponential

Hi Ron I've thoroughly enjoyed your Hawker Tempest Build, just wondering why most models of this scale use a two blade prop? Thanks again Regards Nic Cox

Hola, tendrás configuración para cartón de 3mm?

😂

Beautiful warbird👍…how much full throttle you’re using?

Hello Ron! Great, the retractable gear works perfectly. But where is the tail wheel? Greetings Thomas

This kit does not seem to be on the website, am I looking in the wrong place ?

I get the same flutter from the gear doors on my FW190. Planning to stiffen them at some point. Great flight with the Tempest - looks superb in the air and very smooth takeoff and landing. 👍

Hello Ron! Great work, the retractable undercarriage works first class. And all without a carbon tube in the wing! Now all that's missing is the tail wheel on the rudder! Greetings from Lübeck-Travemünde Thomas

Hello Ron! The landing gear is already fully installed and the acceptance went well. But where is the construction report? Greetings Thomas 😂

what is speed and power and your board thickness?

One of my dream builds. Gorgeous plane and you did it justice! I searched for this plane. Couldn’t find it? Found the website but the Tempest wasn’t listed. Any info?

Hello Run! The flight was good. Your Hawker Tempest flies very well! And what's the next project? Greetings Thomas

Just wondered Ron, why you don't mod some of your models to either have fixed gear or some lightweight retracts? Looks like you have a nice strip of hard runway to use at your club site!

Fly it scale...it's a scale plane...must fly Smooth...not gerky on elevator..😢

Not flying scale..

Thanks, with the slight changes I’ve made it’s now flying much better.

Well done Ron, she looks great

Hello Ron! A successful Maiden Flight and a beautiful model, your Hawker Tempest. The only thing missing is a retractable landing gear! Just like the Focke Wulf 190. Greetings from Lübeck Germany

Well done .That well worn , war weary effect looks very realistic IMHO. Just love to see the full size historic warbirds adopt a similar approach.

Nice

Looks like another winner!

Brilliant weathering…looks like she’s been through some rough dogfights 👍👍👍cheers from Munich, Sven🍺

In which mode did you fly it, with the giro light solid or blinking ?

Just don't crash it! Detailing is amazing👍

Job well done mate, thanks for sharing your build!.

Absolutely amazing work 👍

Brilliant

Very nice indeed. Presumably, the Met Office will be claiming this June as the hottest on record then.

Very nice!

Great work. Looking forward to seeing the maiden flight.

Weathering and panel lines look great, especially the fabric rudder effect. Well done!

Congratulations! Now the Hawker Tempest is almost ready to fly. Looks great! I'm looking forward to the Maiden Flight and wish you the best of luck. Greetings from Thomas 🛩

Time lapse of the "boring" parts is interesting. It's cool to see the tools and techniques you use in the process.
