Due to an idea or was it a brainfart that I had yesterday, I am now on the lookout for a set of floats so that I can do a seaplane conversion. What I need is floats that will fit reasonably well on the He 70
If any one out there can help I'd be very grateful.

What would be your ideal length for floats, then?

I recently molded and cast some 1:72 floats for somebody on the board here.

Can't help with the floats mate but I would have thought someting along the lines of an Ar 196 's floats would be about right ?

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Have you thought of a Finnish ski-equipped one?

Why not build it as a submarine? :lol:

That is actually not a bad idea mate. I may well consider it.

Outre thought, but how about a license-built British one in RAF markings with a Merlin in the nose?  Your choice of markings and any special gear (floats, skis, etc.).
