“As expected this Aircraft performs flawlessly. Besides 3D ships I have not seen this rate of climb from any of the many Foam aircraft I've purchased. This FW-190 invented the word VERTICAL! On takeoff pull her straight up and I kid you not, she will go until gone. Put her in a Spin and she'll return in great shape ready for whatever you can throw at her. This 190 will fly slow but when you pin the throttle you better be hanging on or it will be gone. I can't say enough about this Butcher Bird except the name is appropriate. This plane will tear up a lot of sky in a big hurry then land as smooth as silk! The Bearcat loses to this plane and I LOVE the Bear! Thanks MOTION RC for putting together a package that delivers in every aspect of RC flying. Just Unbelievable!”

“I've always favored German Aircraft. There's just an evil mystique that pervades their airframes. And that my friends is a good thing. I like the idea of selling planes without markings! It allows the hobbyist latitude to get a bit creative. This FW-190 fits all my requisite slots. It's a beautiful aircraft. I assembled it per instructions and everything worked perfectly right out of the box. The Landing Gear are strong and operate flawlessly. I did purchase the "Power" kit because I want the edge! First impressions of this bird from an Old Timer, 100% flawless. Once I get her War Paint on and a couple of test hops under my belt I'll follow up and rate her on performance. I have no doubt she will perform as expected. Bang for Buck? Do it!”
“Just got back from our flying field and the maiden flight of this Flightline FW-190. Wow!! this plane is fun. Very little trim needed. ( just a little up elevator) She comes up on the mains after very short takeoff roll with just a little right rudder pressure. Realistic looking and no need for full throttle takeoff. (not recommended either as this plane has plenty of power) In the air she is beautiful. Easily does all aerobatics I love with Warbirds. She does not have any bad slow speed characteristics, but recomend carrying a little power till you touch down on the mains. Landed with no flaps, half flaps , and full flaps. Every time a different kind of fun. Highly recommend this plane if you love Warbirds. Now for the only thing negative....One retract did not function right out of the box. Emailed Motion RC and two days later had a new retract. You WILL NOT find better customer service than Motion RC. Glad to continue business”

“Great flying plane. Super scale details. Check the blades of the 3 blade prop very carefully after every flight. I have about 15 flights on mine. Today I was flying and one of the blades decided to part from the plane. I cut power after aprox. 1 second. In that second the motor almost left the plane, tore up the engine cowl, shook off the rudder, tail wheel , right flap panel and the dummy machine guns. I was able to make a quick emergency landing with no other damage. It is amazing the damage that can occur from severe vibration imbalance alone. Rather than repair the cowl and engine mount I just decided to buy a new fuselage . It would be very difficult to match the paint.”

“Love the plane but on the first flight the hobbywing 60 amp esc didn't supply sufficient power to the servos determined the sbec to not be enough. ( After my friend and I discovered the same issue in his flightline p38, unfortunately he was unable to recover and the plane is a total loss.) Anyways before I bypassed the sbec the plane would brown out for about ten seconds and then would basically reset and if you were lucky you could recover, assuming you had the altitude. So I pulled the red wire out of the esc connector to the receiver and installed a separate Rx battery pack to supply the servos and gear power. Works like it should now. Other than that the plane flies beautifully and it's very fast. ( Had to make three passes in order to land the first time.) I would give more stars if the each could handle more servos on a 4s setup.”

“The FlightLine RC Fw-190 is a solid flyer. I have been in the hobby about 3 years and found the Fw-190 a very well behaved aircraft with satisfactory performance using the stock motor and propeller, having flown the aircraft about 15 times.Assemby - Despite the instructions which imply you need to install the servos, the aircraft comes out of the box largely assembled; you need only to attach the horizontal stabilizers, wing, install rudder/elevator/aileron and flap linkages, and then install/program the radio. Probably about an hour's worth of work, not including any of the cosmetic things like applying the decals, and gluing on the guns and the drop tank. My maiden was delayed as I expected the ESC to have a "T connector" (Dean's plug), however my model had an XT-60 connector. As I don't have any batteries with XT60 connectors, I had to order the parts to make an adapter.Radio setup - I used an Admiral RX600SP receiver, DX9 transmitter. I programmed flight modes with flap selection, however this turned out not to be necessary.I set up the aircraft using the manual- provided control throws. After the first flight, I reduced the rate for ailerons from 100% to 70% and elevator from 100% to 85% to prevent over-controlling. I used the following expo settings: aileron: 25%, elevator: 20%, rudder: 20%. I used the same settings for all flight modes (flaps up, takeoff flaps, and landing flaps).I used the following for the flap system:Flaps up: -100%, elevator: -12%Flaps takeoff: -46%, elevator: -34%Flaps landing: -13%, elevator: -36%.With this setup, there is no perceivable pitch trim change with flap deflection. The model is equipped with plain flaps of modest chord; I understand the real aircraf had split flaps. The model flies fine with the flaps up; there isn't a huge change with them deflected. Also, the model's tailwheel doesn't retract.Flying Qualities - After the first flight, I had to adjust the elevator linkage to trim the aircraft with the servo centered. Due to the design of the control linkages, you'll need a pair of pliars to adjust the length of the linkages.The wide landing gear stance make takeoffs are straight forward, using partial throttle and right rudder to track centerline. Landings are rather easy; especially wheel landings. The model is good for mild acrobatics - rolls, loops, etc. I have flown this model only from a concrete runway; it might do okay on short grass.I flown the aircraft with an Admiral 4S 14.8V 50C 2500 mAh battery; I get 7-9 minutes of flight with”
“Sehr schönes der Focke Wulf -190 A8 von FlightLine. Drei verschiedene Dekorbögen machen das Modell zu einem wirklichen Hingucker.Tolle Flugeigenschaften, einfacher Zusammenbau und schöne Optik zeichnen das Modell aus.”

“This was my first low wing plane. It flies great, and after 2 years (and lots of hard landings) it still flies and looks great. For the money, one of the best scale airplanes out there.”
