I added a fair amount of down thrust and right thrust to the prop. This is based on experience with other similar models.

James: Can you please add a new model for these photos: Scratch Build, Henschel Hs123

Here is a somewhat grainy video of the Henschel flying. The climb is a little too fast and I should probably reduce the amount of rubber. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mP1zDC0fmg

John, Super job. What scale is the Henschel and where did you get the plans to build from?
John Cooper08-Feb-11 08:20
This is a peanut scale (13" wingspan), which makes it 1/32 scale. I got the plans off the internet at Dave Livesay's site. This site had many excellent dime scale and peanut plans, but unfortunately the site has recently disappeared. However, I have put the Henschel plan here: http://www.scaleflight.net/plans/henshel-1.jpg This plan, by Pres Bruning is very well done and the parts fit is excellent, especially for such a small model.

Thanks John, I may be able to get a printer to re-size the plans to 17.3 wingspan (1/24th scale).
