RE: Top Flite '.60 size' P-51D Mustang ARF: Building & Modifications

I have a Saito 100 and with an APC 14-8 prop I can climb out of site. There was no real issue with fit under the cowl either I think this was a good match for this plane. It is not to big or to small...

RE: New Hangar 9 1.50 P-51 Build

Came in somewhat hard on the mains and the left retract went right through the wing. After taking the covering off and examining the damage it looks like there could be a bit more reinforcing. The...

RE: Top Flite '.60 size' P-51D Mustang ARF: Building & Modifications

gjeiffers - try flying the H9 1.5 Mustang with a Saito 220! All of my big birds with big engines pull a bit to the left. I do have to feather the rudder, nothing to drastic.

RE: New Hangar 9 1.50 P-51 Build

Thanks WD for pointing out the obvious, I will tie my retracts up with a Y and move on. This will open up a channel on my JR921.
