Preview - ParkZone Bf-109G

Amazing! We just finish a review of a very engaging new model from ParkZone, the ultra-micro Sukhoi, and bang here comes another airplane that not only fits everyones favorite WWII Warbird category but also brings all the features from the ParkZone Trojan, Corsair and Mustang. But it doesnt end there—it just gets started! The new Messerschmitt BF-109G is another airplane that all airplane enthusiasts are familiar with. The BF-109G has the kind of proportions that make excellent model airplanes. A long tail and high aspect ratio wingspan guarantee that it will perform very well as a scale model. This model has so many details, such as the air intake scoop, steerable scale-like tail wheel, engine exhaust shields, scale spinner, machine guns, and an optional flap installation kit, it makes this airplane stand out over just about any park flyer you have ever seen.

The Messerschmitt will be available as both a BNF and PNP model but not as an RTF. The big internal feature is the new 15 BL outrunner brushless motor. A large scale profile three-bladed prop required more torque than the previous 480-size motor could provide. And that means more performance! There are even more features that we outline in our video preview, so it would be a good idea to watch and get ready to add this one to your hangar. I think Ill be waiting in line to get one.

@giles503 You should be fine, just take it easy for the first few flights until you get comfortable.

Hi Guys. I have recently mastered the hobbyzone supercub and I'm looking for second plane. I have some experience with ailerons on a flight simulater, and have narrowed my choices to the t-28 trojan or the f4u corsair. I want to get a plane which is forgiving but is still fast and can do alot of tricks. I'm hoping after buying this next plane, I wont have to buy a new plane for a long time. So, which of the 2 planes would you recommend?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@spaceacestarchild13 I would go with the T-28 first, then the Corsair. The Trojan will feel similar to the Super Cub yet be more capable and nimble.

@WarbirdFan66 We don't see Jim frequently but he's very active on Facebook if you'd like to pass the message along yourself :)

Since this one is discontinued is Parkzone going to make another one? I was hoping to get one.

@HorizonRCdotCom one more question is it the flying thats hard or is it the landings ?

[giles503]

@HorizonRCdotCom thank you for your help . :)

[TheParkFlyerzzz]

You guys should encourage Parkzone to make an ultra micro Piper Cherokee. That would be amazing!

[spaceacestarchild13]

Hi guys. I was thinking of purchasing the t28 micro before a larger plane to get even more practice with ailerons. I was then going to buy the spectrum dx5e transmitter, but saw that it had no model memory. In the future I plan on having about 2-3 planes, so should I buy the dx6i instead. I was leaning towards the dx5e because of the money, and because your videos have demonstrated how easy it is to bind to from one plane to the next. Please give me your opinion. Thanks.

@HorizonRCdotCom thank you for the advice.
