Thanks to Delfin and the crew at SN Hobbies, I was given an opportunity to assemble and fly this awesome PNP German fighter.
The kit went together quickly with no hitches. Given the super low price point of this kit, I was pleasantly surprised to see that servoless main gear retracts were included.
The assembled model looks great and I look forward to seeing how it flies. Stay tuned for the Maiden flight.

Many thanks to Dave B. for the great photos! More to come with the Maiden!
Note: I made an error in the video when I talked about the few parts that need to be glued. It is also necessary to glue a small plastic part to the wings that the wing bolt goes through. This takes a few seconds using the supplied glue or some foam safe CA. Sorry!
The Focke-Wulf FW190 ranks with the Supermarine Spitfire, Vought F4U Corsair and North American P-51 Mustang as one of the best fighters of World War II. The Focke-Wulf 190 was designed by a team of German designers headed by the famous Kurt Tank.
Its appearance in the skies over France in early 1941 was a rude shock to the Allies, as it was clearly superior to any other plane. For nearly a year, until the debut of the Spitfire IX, the FW 190 was the unmatched champion of the air war.
