The Peashooter was first flown in 2019 and the Halberstadt D-IV was flown in 2020. Both are 1/3 scale and from my own "plans".

Peashooter: 112" WS, 45lbs. DA85 for power.

Halberstadt: 140" WS , 35 lbs., started with a 3W60 but it has issues so I put in a G62 and it flies it surprisingly well.

Wow Jim, fantastic models. Is the peashooter a new one or did you fix the one you damaged years ago? I remember following that build and it was a beauty.

Do you have build threads for them? I always loved following your building. It’s been a long time.

Both are outstanding looking models...and it completely blows me away that you are able to knock out one each year!

Thanks! The one I built before was 1/4 scale and it was from modified Santich plans. This is 1/3 scale.

Thanks! I'm pleased that the Peashooter flies as well as it does. It was crashed on it's second flight in 2019 because the LG was too weak and there were strong gusts when I was landing. It also needed more nose weight because it was pitch sensitive. After rebuilding the LG stronger and adding nose weight it's been a very solid flier.
