D.B. Andrus Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 Reminds me of the expedition to Venus on "The Expanse". And no, they weren't flying a HP 0/400. TimW, nmayhew and Tnarg 2 1
ringleheim Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 I find this aircraft to be rather awkward and ungainly in its design and proportions. But at nearly 2 feet in length and over 3 feet in wingspan, no one can accuse the model of being small!
LSP_K2 Posted March 10, 2019 Posted March 10, 2019 Cool airplane, but crazy big. It'll probably cost a small fortune too.
TimW Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 You know you want one....we all do.... Darren Howie 1
Cees Broere Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I think I want one Cees Rick Griewski and Lee White 2
Pup7309 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 What a beast! Gonna pass on this one (I think) But will be great to see the art work and instructions. I think it’s due mid-year?

Out2gtcha Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Will for sure pass on the 0/400. While happy for those who love it, or were waiting for one, but way too big, and way not enough interest for the money they likely will want. Also a good thing if they make the wings able to be posed folded. This thing is going to be HUGE!
Dennis7423 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Those wing spar boxes look pretty robust. If not for the rigging, you could, in theory, make the outer wings removable. Like many here, while it's very, very impressive, I'll be passing on this one. Unless I get commissioned to build one, it's just way too big. Sure do hope to see one built some day though. - Dennis S. Thornton, CO USA
Plm Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) Outer wings can be fold on the real aircraft, so no room problem. Have a look at WNW archives photos about the 0/400. Edited March 11, 2019 by Plm

MikeMaben Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I wonder if this means they're nearing the end of their run ??? nmayhew and Tony C 2
kkarlsen Posted March 12, 2019 Author Posted March 12, 2019 WNW's can't stop now, we still need a Vickers Vimy... Zeppelin-Staaken... And of course the Friedrichshafen FF 41... Cheers: Kent scvrobeson, Rick Griewski, nmayhew and 2 others 5
