He-70 Blitz by Murphs Models

Beta build so some markings are not corrected yet.

Very slick and pretty plane it was and model definitely reflects that.Alu fuselage construction with elektron alloy cast metal parts .Wooden plywood wings in then fashionable gullwing shape (although inverted).Manually retractable landing gear,somewhat novum in early 30s.Similar or the same method of retracting was used in Russian I-16,I'm not sure if coincidence since He-70 was likely tested in Ryazan.

Very easy model.I tough wings might be hard-they weren't.Exhaust stacks were much harder.Model on pictures is about 75% of original model ,it's about 10-11 inches wingspan.Note-Big/fat wing profile was a feature of this plane.
