Overview
Heinkel He-111 1750mm (68.9") Wingspan from Black Horse - Balsa Wood ARF - BHHE00
Designed in 1934 to get around the restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles on military aircraft production, the Heinkel He-111 was initially produced as a commercial airliner that could be quickly and cheaply converted for military use as a bomber.
The He-111 served with the Luftwaffe throughout WW2, serving on all fronts and in a variety of roles as well as the bomber role synonymous with the type. After WW2, it was adopted by Spain as the CASA 2.111 with whom it served until 1973.
The model is scaled to approximately 1:13 and attention was paid to a true to original appearance and best flight characteristics. The model was designed for electric drives but can also be flown using a matched pair of internal combustion engines of about 4.5cc displacement.

So far 5 Flights on my Black Horse HE-111 and she flies great! Very stable in the air. Build Notes: it takes a lot of trimming and sanding on the fiberglass parts to get them to fit properly. The tail wheel provided was not fitting for this scale bird, I opted for a modified Dubro / 3d printed option Setup -- Flightline TA-152 power system, Two 4s 5000mah, Hitec 5085mg servos, AR10100T receiver. With this set up it took 3 oz of lead in the nose under the cockpit floor to achieve CG.

Very easy to put together; everything fits straightforward. My only two suggestions are: Purchase the landing gear from the 80mm A10, because the one that comes with the kid is not that great. I struggled with it. Secondly, (IMO) get a slightly more powerful engine setup then what is suggested. I have mine massively overpowered with two 5065 800kv motors, 100A Avian ESCs, 2 x 4000mah 6S on a pair of 10x12s, and it flies great. ****** fast. Extremely stable & solid in flight. Easy to land, and it looks so good in the sky.

The struts are pointing out and the wheels are also pointing out. Also the tires were rubbing against the struts. The tail wheel is too small so I replaced it with a bigger wheel. All of this makes the airplane difficult to control on the ground during takeoff (unless you are flying off the grass). I modified the angle of the struts, and the angle of the wheels. I added spacers or 3 mm washers to provide clearance between the tire and the strut. Now it trucks on the ground very well. I had at least 50 landings on this airplane and did not put a scratch on it. I would not fly it on 3 cell LiPo as Motion RC recommends. You need 4 cells with the motors recommended by Motion-RC. On a 3-cell LiPo it flies very slow.

I upgraded the landing gear with the 80mm A-10 trailing link main gear and wheels. So a little modification to the wing, but very minor (mostly sanding with a Dremel). I also installed the P-38 motors, propellers, esc and spinners. Had to tweak the motor outward (away from the fuselage) slightly so the massive props would have clearance from the nose of the plane. Running one motor clockwise and the other counter clockwise. Which work great! Maiden came and went with no surprises. Few clicks of elevator and ailerons and the bird was lock in. Landings were close to perfect as they could be and the trailing link struts did there job. I was worried about prop strikes when the gear compressed. But no issues what so ever. Plane overall looks and flies awesome. Only 1 con: No guns in the kit. I will make some and install them myself. Glad I bought this model to add to my warbird collection.

Very Nice
Fast Delivery as always! Well packaged. Almost overkill, but I’m not complaining. This is my 1st Balsa kit. So I will be taking my time building this.
