Very interesting to say the least. Do keep at it and KEEP US POSTED!!!!

Gary, I found a Testors 1/48 Me163 that I can modify to GTI standards. Might have a go and start another thread on it. But first I had to do some research. Found a cutaway drawing of the Me 163 GTi but I don't want to post as this is about the Me 110.
or maybe I will ....with your permission?
 

I love it!!!!!

A Bachvards Group Build!! Must give history of the particular plane and such.

Will post the cutaway Me 163GTI tonight and also found the drawings for the Do335GTI - interesting plane. They say the first prototype would go in circles because the propellors turned the same way thus torquing the aircraft in a spin. Second prototype corrected this problem. Will post pic tonight.
 
To think of all those old kits I threw out over the years when moving house that could have been usedfor this....

The Ju-87N U6/R3/WTF with large, detachable drogue chute and thrusters to enable the pilot to enter a dive vertically over the target, slow the plane to walking speed, and use thrusters to center the bomb over the target would have been an excellent subject....
 
Ok, here are te pics I've found so far from a super-sub-secret internet site.

First is the Me 163GTI which is obvious. Lots of info there.

Second is the aforementioned Do 335GTI. As you can see, until they got counter-rotating props it would spin like a carnival ride! Think it was called the "Push Me, Push Me" configuration or to the pilots, "the Spin Puke".

1 small point the black and decker 2 stroke coffee maker was replaced in the first prototype when it was found to be interfering with the herring it was replaced with the 4 stroke turbo diesel with intercooler as this was found to give Megan Fox more strokes per minute
