My latest build, a 1/4 scale BUSA Nieuport 11.
Just two months to build. Covered in Solartex with latex and acrylic paints. Cowl from Fiberglas Specialities. RCGF 21 twin swinging a Xoar 16*8 prop. Williams Brothers wheels, I FlyTailies painted Lewis gun. Weighs just under 14lbs. Likes to climb and flys nicely at half throttle. Pilot is Aces Of Iron painted by my nephew as is the Happy Hooligan on the sides.

Thanks for the compliments.
This is a pretty easy and quick build. I am going to have to put some more down thrust in the engine though.
It's pretty small for a 1/4 scale plane.

Can you add positive to the stab in stead of down thrust?That would work too.
