Overall an excellent ARF. Powered this one with .25 rimfires as suggested. 4000mah 4 cell lipos. for power, 11-7E apc props. Balanced pros and spinners. On motor run-up, right spinner litterily exploded approaching full throttle. Loss of spinner was no big deal as they where to be replaced with custom DaveBrown 3 blade spinners. Sadly for me ,the spinner took out the nose canopy as it disintegrated. Of course a replacement is Out of stock (3 months if at all!!). So, I ordered another one for spare parts to be powered by 2 Saito .40 's. if and when I get the replacement Canopy set. The suggested retracts are an excellent value and I would recomend them. Will maiden mid Sept. in Palatine Il. if the weather gods co-operate. Single stick Highlandville IA.

The BH HE-111 hasn’t disappointed so far the assembly is going fantastic I decided to use the FW A-10 struts for the landing gear but I’m not sure everyone will want to go that way took lots of modification for those struts. The fit and finish is absolutely fantastic as to be expected from any Motion RC product just remember to set aside time when you take on this project

The craft appears to be well made and finished, the proof will come when it is flown

While I have not yet assembled or flown the Heinkel yet, the quality of the kit is outstanding! I previously have owned a Blackhorse OV-1 Mohawk, so am familiar with the build quality of this company, and I have not been disappointed. The model comes in near bullet-proof packaging, the covering is perfect. All of the plastic and fiberglass parts (fiberglass engine cowlings) are perfect. I am patiently waiting for all of the recommended items for completion to be in stock (I am powering this with electric) and then will assemble. The only concern I do have is maybe how the wings attach. Each wing uses an open ended blade, held down by screw and washer. If the screw is loosened for some reason (vibration?), the wing would slide right out. I may modify that for additional security. Otherwise, the fit and finish is excellent

The not so good:This is old and set up for gas, doesn’t include servos, retracts or power train etc. It’s also old school balsa and only semi-scale.The good:Seems to be made well, right covering and has panel lines painted inIt is a unique model and nobody else is kitting one Summary:If you like the He-111 this is it; may as well pick one up!
