Halberstadt Cl.II Schakasta 21

Been nothing here since October so I thought I post something.

This is my just finished scratch built Cl.II. No flights yet due to wet and cold windy weather.

Sorry Warren, I just noticed your post. It is rubber powered, as are all of my planes. I find rubber power to be the best for my form of modeling, stick and tissue.

Thanks! I thought it was in looking at it Stoney, but I just had to ask. Out of curiosity, what duration of flight do you get out of one of those? I know it's not long, of course, just curious.

On this plane I'm waiting for weather to improve for trimming flights. Should be stable with that swept back and washed out upper. wing Having a splendid blizzard now! This old girl came in somewhat heavy and with all that drag it's going to take a super thermal to break a minute. But that's okay with me. I'm not competition minded so as long as it flies I'm happy.
