Tailskid, how do you like your Hangar 9 P-51 ARF? Also, the Evolution engine you have installed - what's your experience with that motor? Is that a good combination flyer there? Very curious and interested!!

Jerome, that is MY FAVORITE plane! Bet I have 50-60 flights on her and I love her to death! VERY fast with that engine (usually starts on first flip if I choke it first); idles great. The robart are holding up well and have not let me down (or up) My biggest complaint is that the wings are getting a bit 'lose' as the right trailing has a tendency to move up/down 1/16th - 1/32.

Landings are sooooooooooooooo smooth, especially if you have a headwind. If you use flaps (full) on landing, the tail doesn't want to drop, so I've been retracting the flaps right after touchdown - and she will glide if you let her.

Like I said she is my most favorite plane in this size!
