HEINKEL HE 111

Yes i know i am having a "break" from models.
but i can't not build,so i have ignored everything else i have to finish and started something else for a change of scenery.

needed a change from the Lancaster so i started building the fuselage for my 100inch wingspan Heinkel.

Formers all cut out and mounted to the jig, stringers all on.


As with the Lancaster, the nose is removable for storage purposes, so it is built separate to the main fuselage.


The nose is all glazed and as the glazing is non symmetrical i have been cutting the formers and test fitting.

And you call this 'taking a break', Tony! :pinch: Looks great, even so!

not done anything for 3 days and was getting twitchy.

i will go back to slobbing off now. [badass]

the big question is.
do i make the V1 that it carries and drops off in flight or not.

and do i make the V1 edf or just a glider.

If you make it into a working/flying V1, you need another pilot with tx to operate it! You can't fly two models at once on your own!

"duh" i know that eric.

one of the nose glazing frames.

Tony
Nice former & stringer fuselage.
Is it going to be skinned?

yes it will have 1.5mm skin over the top of all that stringer work.

What a nice build Tony.

that there airplane bombed our chippy

and it will be doing it again very soon.

Thats a mind numbing job your doing there for your break,"Your Amazing"

it is a break because there is no pressure to do it.
if i feel like doing some i do and if not, i don't.

the other stuff, i HAVE to put in "X" hours a day or else.

Why do you HAVE to put in x number of hours a day, its a hobby for christ sake :silly:
