Hey all, just sharing my newest toy, bought this from a buddy that built it and never flew or run it, last night, it took to the sky. few Specs: Glassed and flite metal finish, ST G2300 engine, Retracts, JR PCM10x on 2.4 conversion.
Flies scale, not overpowered, not sure on the weight, but it flies fine, and lands great (no flaps, and doesnt need them). It will get a gas engine someday for sure, but for now, this will work.

PPPP PICS:

It is beautiful, panel lines, rivets, all into the aluminum finish. It looks pretty real.

Nice looking T-6 John. It makes me want to dig out my SNJ-5 project from the back of the workshop. The 1/6th scale planes sure are a nice looking and easy to manage.
Good luck with it.

Dave

Thank you, after getting a ride in an SNJ4 last summer, I had to have one I cant afford a real one, so this will have to suffice.

Hey John that flight wasn't in American Top Gun's SNJ-4 ws it, the blue one? My wife bought me an hour ride in theirs, 1/2 hour or more of great aerobatics, my legs felt a little funny after we landed Great looking Texan John!

First pic, the SNJ-4 NATG, second my E-Flite T-6 done as Wayne Cartwright's Sixshooter reno racer.
BTW I still haven't maidened the Dymond models Bearcat!

I was coming out of the fourth loop on a clover leaf and wondering where I was! The pilot asked me to tighten my stomach mussels and it will help....I informed him that I already was I'm not out of shape by any means, my shape is round! I think the blood was pooling in my fat, not feet!

God Bless ya John
