Status: offline 		The P-40 is the only reason I joined this hobby.

I've owned 6 P-40's so far. TF Redbox kit that I built and sold before ever learning how to fly. Four VQ-P-40's. Crashed every one of those bad boys. Current TF Gold Edition ARF that weighs about 13 lbs or something. A real pig but probably the most scale-flying plane I've ever owned.

I would love to be in the P-40 Brotherhood.

My .60-size Top Flite P-40 weighs about the same but I like the plane as well. If it within your means to do so, consider the Top Flite Giant Scale P-40 with a DLE 55. If flies delightfully.

I would say Dave Brown or True Turn for the spinner, and I like the Master Airscrew props because they look more scale. Some say they lack performance, but I still like them. What engine are you running? Never mind, I found your earlier post " O.S 120 Pumped 4 stroke and a 16x6 Prop"

http://masterairscrew.com/3-bladeseries.aspx

Although the OS 120 Pumped calls for a 15X8 3 blade; the 120 glow, DLE-20, and e-Flight Power 60 has all ran very well on the 15X7 Master 3 Blade.

True Turn 3 blade spinners

Thanks for the prayers , we were in the direct path in Central Pa but despite flooding and wind , many (not all ) but many were blessed enought so that we now can help others .
Jershey was devestated ! they need our help and our prayers

Status: offline 		We survived in PA but I am semi retired and work out of an office in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, New York. Can't get in touch with anyone connected to the office. Since the office was only a block from the ocean, I think the situation is not good.

With regard to P-40s, I'm down to just one. A modified VQ P-40. I totalled my P-36 (almost a P-40) and decommissioned my Top Flite kit built 60 size P-40, used the hardware elsewhere and sold the airframe. It was heavy and a pig to fly. The VQ with a DLE 20 is a bit heavy but flys ok, certainly better than the TF.

Status: offline 		One hard over rudder equals smokin hole. My YA P-40 is no more. I had the problem earlier and sent my RX and associated stuff to be checked out. No problems noted. I even changed my rudder servo just in case. I presume I had a short somewhere in the wire bundle which caused the problem. Make of radio not important as it has flown several airplanes for years without problem and even last night got 4 flights on my jet without any issues.........
