Hello, Guys!
I have been inactive in the hobby for several years, but have recently rediscovered the fun in building and flying. To date, my most ambitious kit was a Sig Citabria 1/6 scale.
I am presently considering building a larger kit, perhaps 80-90" wingspan, weighing 18-24 pounds. I am interested only in Warbirds. My questions:
1) Best kit manufacturers?
2) Best model? P-47, At-6, Bearcat, P-51?
3) Best engines? Zenoah, Brison, Sachs, Quadra?
I can't wait to hear your suggestions!
Thank you all for your input!

I dont know about the best flying models but General Chuck Yeager flew most of the full scale warbirds and he claims the Bearcat was the finest flying prop plane ever. One of my personal favorites too.
