Status: offline 		I have been looking into this plane. I had an eflite p-47 and hated the quality of the plane, the foam broke very easily. Is the sea fury made of the same foam?

Not any more. The stick goes through a ply plate attached to the firewall. The stick's going nowhere.

The foam looks like the same as the foam used in the P-47

Status: online 		I will try to get some video this week. As far as set up I am using the Eflite 480 1020 kv spinning an 11X8 APC Prop, Castle thunderbird 36 speed controller, Castle B.E.C. (not sure if one is needed but with 6 servos its cheap insurance), a Flight Power 2170 pack, 2 JR 241 for the retracts, 4 Hitec 56's on everything else. I am In Denver, CO. At this altitude with this setup plane has unlimited vertical at full power and leaps of the ground in about 10 feet.
