Default TF Giant P-47 or P-40.....opinions please

I recently purchased the Top Flite Giant Corsair ARF and have been very happy with the way it flies. Now I want to purchase another TF ARF. I'm not interested in the P-51 (I've owned several). I would like some opinions from P-40 and P-47 owners. Any suggestions........or tips?


Thanks

I have both the P-47 and the P-40. THe P-40 has a DLE 55 and is built stock, great flying airframe and suprisingly fast. The P-40 is just a tad difficult to land. The P-47 was an ARC that I glassed and covered in flight metal. Then I installed a DA 85, great flying, suprising roll rate and is also fast. No bad habits ith either one I prefer the P-47 myself. I have also just ordered the FW190 and I think it will be another winner.

Lots of luck Paul.
