Die verarbeitung ist an manchen Stellen nicht die beste, zum Beispiel die frungsstifte in den Tragflchen sind zu weit eingeschoben und dann eingehartzt, oder in der Gebrauchsanweisung sind keine genauen Daten fr Ruderausschlge und bauabschnitte sind nicht genau erklrt, hier geht man von einem alten Hasen aus der keine erklrung fr garnichts braucht.
Aber trotzdem sehr gnstig, wenn man noch etwas daran verbessert ist es ein Top Modell

The thing flies very well, but the correct CG is 145mm from leading edge wing and not 135mm or 105mm what the description advices. and then the Up-Trim will still be 6m.
Control throw max Up must be 25mm for sure, you wil need that for a smooth landing.
Side trust engine must be 2 dgr to the right and no down trust at all then it flies straight.
You have to secure the cockpit hood with extra screws to the fuselage, elsewise you wil lose the hood fot sure during flight.
I have mounted a ASP .52 2 stroker on the ME, like a homesick angel it goes up en up and up.
And for the rest..................a very fun flyer and with good looks.

Recived the box from the dutch WH after 3 days, very fast.
Quality at first site looks very good, all the glue joints also, wings fits like gloves.
After 3 hours of 'building' the plane is ready to go to the field.
For now the power will come from a .52 two stroker, when it flys nicely I will put a wren 44er in it, must be going then like a bat out of hell with 4.5 kilo's of trust.
I asume it will by flying also nicely with a P20 also.
Also read on RCgroups that the exact CG must be set at 135mm from LE and not 105mm as the description advises, I will follow that experience advise, also from start the UPset 'reflex' I will set at 5mm on the aileron's.
We will see how it flys, let you all know.

Im building this online and putting a turbine in it. A Jetcat p-60 with 13.5lbs of thrust. Goto RC Groups/fuel warbirds and look for 61" ME-163 from HK

UNBOXING REVIEW ONLY. 1-14-14 received. Three problems: 1) The lower former for landing gear and mount itself were glued to the fiberglass body at an ANGLE, i.e., misaligned. This will be a major headache to fix. 2) The Xeroxed and stapled instruction sheets improperly try to show the CG at 105mm, but NOT AT THE WING JOINT! Will have to estimate. 3) Instructions don't warn about the MANDATORY reflex for ailerons. Otherwise, it was well packaged, absolutely no damage to airframe from shipping. Fuse and wings have a perfect - although glossy - finish. More later. (See Discussions for help with CG.)
