The Me-110 was one of the aircraft the Luftwaffe started the Second World War with, and it logged many successes in the first vears of that war. But as allied fighters became better the Me-110 was outclassed, and changed from a daylight troop-support to night fighter.
I'd been thinking about a combined PSS and electric model for some time, but couldn't make up my mind about what type of aircraft to build. Finally, I chose the Me-110 because of its simple to build airframe, the twin fins sticking into the prop wash for better stability, and its low drag.
From the first flight on the model showed excellent handling. This Me-100 flies fast and is acrobatic, but still averages 11 minutes of night with an eight cell 1900 mAmp battery pack. On the slope the model becomes much lighter, and becomes an easy to fly acrobatic model that can stav airborne in very weak lift.
