RE: Top Flite P-47D Thunderbolt ARF .60-.91: Building & Mods

I went through several retarct servos (Hitec and JR) before Iswitched to air. If I was adding retracts today I'd use the e-Flite electrics.

Flew the re-maiden. The DLE-20cc feels just right for this plane.

Glad things turned out as they did. Good reminder for everyone to be careful, it's not just Lipos that burn down the house.

RE: Top Flite P-47D Thunderbolt ARF .60-.91: Building & Mods

Great. Keep checking on it and let me know if you have any suggestions. If this works out I'm going to put a DLE-20 in my TF .60 P-51.

RE: Top Flite P-47D Thunderbolt ARF .60-.91: Building & Mods

I'm just starting a conversion to a DLE-20 from a .91 four-stroke. Fits great inside the cowl. With the rear carb and beam mount, the DLE is an easy conversion.

Thanks CJ.
