RE: PBY Catalina ARF by Great Planes

I see Great Planes on the Real Flight 4 FS has a ElectriFly PBY. As I haven't built my PBY yet, was wondering if anyone has flown the FS PBY, and wondering how it compares to the ElectriFly PBY.

RE: PBY Catalina ARF by Great Planes

My "gut" tells me to use the 1250 kv, as extra power always comes in handy, and it's real easy to throttle back and cruise. So will let you all know when I finally build it & get it in the air.
