Status: offline 		Richard, I already have a Pumped OS 91 Surpass II and Slimline Inverted Pitts Muffler. Two weeks ago you told me that my 91 pumper Surpass would fly my Mustang just fine? Have you changed your mind because if so than I need to buy a new engine and I dont know if I want to spend 450 on a YS 110?

Status: offline 		Plus, this plane is rated up to a .91 four stroke, so I don't see a reason why an OS .91 pumper wouldn't fly the plane well. If you stick a larger engine in it and something fails, then the manufacturer might not reimburse you if the plane is still under warranty.

Status: offline 		Thanks Richard, I don't need all out speed in the P51 so it will work out well. I am going to install a hot four stroke in my EZ Dago Red? What would be a powerful 4 stroke for my Dago Red? My last one had an OS 61 SF pumped and piped engine and it screamed this time I want a four stroke?

My thoughts also, I dont want it to come apart in the air and besides full scale Mustangs don't go vertical or at least not for long anyway

Status: offline 		I've been keeping up with this thread every now and then and thought I'd give it new life. So please tell me how your WM P51's are flying. I'm thinking about getting one. A buddy of mine already flys the H9 and I thought it would be great to get a different one. Please update.

thanks.

Status: offline 		Dave, what's the line up with the servos. I read it takes 7. Can you please tell me where all 7 go? I'm thinking 1 throttle, 1 elevator, 1 rudder, 1 retract, 1 flaps and 2 ailerons? Also, did go with with the standard servos?

thanks.

Status: offline 		Yes, you are correct with the servo count and placement. I use a standard servo for the throttle. High end JR retract servo. 1 medium servo for the rudder. I go high end on the elevator because that is the most importand. Aileron servos are medium quality.

Break it in on a 15x8 prop. This prop can also be used for normal flying. For extreme speed over 120 mph, switch to either a 14x11 or 14x12 prop.

Slimline inverted Pitts muffler for the YS .91 will fit this engine since this engine is just a bored out 91.

Status: offline 		Hi Guys, Sorry that I haven't been answering your replies but I have been down with pneumonia since Wednesday. I haven't had the the chance to work on my Mustang because of above.

I have been thinking about servos myself, I have 4 high end new Airtronics servos 100oz .12 that came with my Stylus I could put on the flight controls I have a choice of of Hitec 605's and 545's and I converted 10 new 94102 to top ball bearings with LDM Kits they work smooth I will put one on flaps and one on throttle. I am running a pull/pull Kevlar system on the rudder with a new Hitec 605. I could try 4 of the new Karbonite geared Hitec Digitals on all 5 surfaces?
What do you guys think?
Thanks Viper

PS: Tony I am sorry but you should go with the 7/16 Robo Struts I will be using them in the 551 RS
