And also lots of help to those building a jug.

How many folks here own right now multiple P-47s? I have my .60 size and my 30cc should be airworthy in a month or two.

I currently have two P-47's both bubbletops. One is a bone stock FMS 1400mm 55" Electric ("Spirit of Atlantic City"), The other is a fiberglass one about 6' WS. Not positive who actually makes it. Kind of looks like an old version of the Nitroplanes one. The 55" I will be making some astetic changes to (see the pic) plus redoing the ugly machine guns before I either weather it or change the scheme completely. The 6' one I will be doing the same to, haven't decided on an engine for it yet but most likely a .90 or 1.20 OS.

I'm slightly embarrassed to say that I have 4: A large and small Top Flite and a large and small Hangar 9. The Top Flites have DLE 20/55, and the H-9's have an RCGF 20 and an Evolution 35cc.

P-47's really fly good.

this is my third one over all started with e-flite p-47 years ago.

I have my first ever warbird, a HK Durafly P-47 ( which I still fly on occasion when I don't want to wait in line at the field, I just go to the school next door)' a 60 size TF, and a GS TF to build yet.

Oh ok I see, so here's what I'm gonna do now. I'll have 1 heavy duty switch for the ignition with a life source 6.6v 1300 mAh all on its own. Then I will have 1 life source 6.6v 2100 mAh battery connected to a switch. Then that switch would be connected to bat share. Then I could have another switch connected to another life source 6.6v 2100 mAh battery, which will also connect to that batt share. Think that will be ok?

That will work, but the Batshare is not a requirement.

lancairmustang

No but it is nice to have in the plane, connect both batteries to it, and it distributes the power from both batteries evenly throughout the plane, if one fails, you got the other battery

You can NEVER have too many P-47s in your hangar

You have the same thing with a parallel setup without the added expense or complications, but to each his own as they say.

Really NEED another plane but there is just something about owning another R/C Plane.
Man wouldn't if U could fly 2,3 or 4 RC planes in formation off one Xmitter. Ain't there some way to get
3 planes to follow the leader. maybe lasers or something like that. Had a friend that put mettle rods thru
4 F-4 Phantoms with Electric in a diamond pattern but it didn't fly well.
