I'm putting a DLE20 gas engine with the Jtec pitts muffler. It fits well and I've heard it flies very well with this engine. Just something to think about. I had an OS91FSII I was going to put in...

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

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

Not to worry............I kept getting the "awaiting fulfillment" message and then all of a sudden they were here. They were also good at answering my emails inquiring about the struts.

Cheers,...

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

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

OK..........I just got a wild hair and ordered a DLE20 because of an offer from Tower. I now must chose between the DLE20 or an OS91FSII pumped 4-stroke for this bird................thoughts?
