Default FW-190D Please help identify kit?

I bought this at my LHS on consignment. Had no info but what you see. Its electric, has a hatch for easy battery access, all Fiberglas fuse, balsa sheeted wing and elevators. Wingspan 48 inches, looks to be a .25 size plane.

I happen to pick up another plane same time combo deal. Markings on tail says 1991 OK Models. Yes it's a .40 size P-40.

Thanks Chris. I just googled Hyperion fw-190 and that is it. Too bad they don't make them anymore. Looks like a nice ARF.

I had their P-51 and it had difficult handling problems. I think from memory this 190 flew well. You can search for threads on here and on RCGroups for info

I don't know the manufacturer, but it looks like it will fly great upside down.
