Global P-47 with "Augered" Rossi-60
I got this Global P-47 ARF at a charity auction at or club- One of the worst covering on an ARF I have had [
] I was gonna give it away but decided to make it airworthy- So I installed my Rossi-60 that was modified by {Chuck Auger} with a full quiet pipe-
I spared no expense on electronics using Fut. 3003's on Elev. and pull-pull Rudder [X(] and 148's on Ailerons and throttle- Using a top of the line Futaba 4 Channel Conquest (equipped with servo reversing and a trainer switch- anybody have a manual so I can study these features?) and 7 ch. RX on board!
My new hangar queen! Nothing like a warbird with no cowl, no retracts, no belly-pan, and a big 2 stroke engine with 18" pipe running down and over the wing- I am a scale nut
Pics to follow! Should be purty quick for a $60 charity warbird-bashed-pregnant-P-47

RE: Global P-47 with "Augered" Rossi-60
I happen to have one of these beasties. I have an OS.70 surpass
on mine and the retracts that came with it. Made two flights and
now will pull out the retracts and install fixed gear, both retracts
failed on a normal landing while rolling out after touchdown.
The darn old ugly airplane actually flies ok.

RE: Global P-47 with "Augered" Rossi-60
Jerry Sigur- I have to say the airplane when equipped properly (unlike mine- [X(]) is a fine looking bird! I love P-47's especially Razorbacks... If it does not explode I guess I could cut the cowl---
Notice the zip-tie holding my Conquest together! Seems the gentleman I bought it from somehow melted the back of the TX and lost all screws- range checked perfectly- ($18 shipped for TX and 7CH RX of unk. brand also ok in rangecheck)
Cheers!
