Default Sky Shark P-40 ARF, great plane

This Sky Shark P-40 ARF is a great flying plane. Don't worry about the 24 pounds or so it might come out to be. It will fly just fine. Mine is about 24.5 pounds ready to fly. It is an electric conversion using the AXI 5345/16 outrunner, 12 cells of lipoly, swings a 22/12 prop. Sierra Giant Scale retracts set it off. Just a couple things guys were doing like installing the servos up front and not in the back to keep the nose weight needed down. I ended up with about 12 oz. in the cowl to get my C/G at the correct spot. Here are a couple pictures of one repainted to a Army version. The clip here is of the maiden flight. GET ONE!
