Default RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Guys, any input on the fuse hatch ? Any ideas on making it more concealed if one were to

get rid of the ultracote and fiberglass the fuse? A full cockpit would also be great. I would scrap

the mech. retracts in favor of pneumatics. This will be a fun very close to scale bird that could use

alot of detail work to make it more realistic. And much cheaper to start out with than say yellow, aerotech,

or a full plan kit. Much more quality minded than say KMP or CMP any of those. Also i would throw in a

retract tailwheel and doors. This arf would save some time of building say over a top flite also. We will

all just have to see how it flies. Definitely go with gasser here, saito 180 is hard to run inverted. I have one

on my great planes ryan sta. Do u think the g-26 will fit without cutting the cowl? God i have tons of questions.

I have wanted a nice p-47 larger scale razorback for a while now, but dont want to spend thousands.
