I couldn't help myselft... (again).... I bought this historic bird.
I thought it will look good with (Gary's)mini Stuka flying past.

Good pics George,dying to that one fly

The Maiden of the JU-52 Video.

VMAR JU-52 RC plane re-maiden flight. 1600mm wing span. Balsa construction. with flaps. Total flying weight 1.9kg. 3 X Turnigy 2826 1400kV brushless motors. 3X 25A ESC. 3X 8X4 props one counter rotating. 4000mah 3S lipo, 1x 5A UBEC.
Plane flies very well and with 1/3 to 1/2 throttle, but not a glider and will fall out of the sky if power is cut. Very tip stall sensitive due to the narrow wing tips. must be flown all the way to touch down. very scale like and looks and sounds nice in the air.

Thanks mate, she flies nice but landiings are tough. (problem with German planes have tapered wings (tip stall), narrow lading gear spacing (wobble)... but I like the challage.

will bring her for a nother flight soon.
