As far as the swept wing having the effect of dihedral I've heard that too.  But I think at our size models you still need to add a bit of dihedral for stability in Free Flight!!

I'm with AK... I love that wing planform.  Another one to add to the "To Do" list! Too many planes to build not enought time!!! I think that's why some modelers have moved to dimescale size 16" span.  Or some others have moved to peanut.  My fingers struggle with the smaller sizes.  But I may have to bite the bullet and start building smaller models!!!

I must admit that I'm intrigued by the history of the aircraft....  Don't know how many times I've read that swept-back wings contribute dihedral stability to the design.  Sounds good to me...dihedral is always good in my book. 

As for the "pointy nose"...problem with that design is that the initial design was configured to utilize the best power-plant out there...which just happened (arguably) to be the Rolls-Royce Kestrel.  Early versions of the Bf109 also used the Rolls-Royce engine.  Well...if one is going to war...might be best to have production et al under your own control...so Messerschmitt went with the Daimler-Benz and Henschel went with an air-cooled radial...which in the end was best for the Ostfront as well as Afrika, ...good-bye "pointy nose."

Here's a unique pic...note the last photo...shows Hs 126 lg...forged steel...almost like a bungee chord was strung at the top! 

But...the Hs122 V1 would be a rare bird to model for certain.    Bet all of you could knock this model out in your sleep.

I'm a sucker for that wing shape!!
