Default RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

I built a TopFlight P51B model many years ago lost the engine on take off and the wing was totaled. After that I built the Great Planes P51D with the Kaos airfoil the plane flys like a pattern ship. Likily I traced each rib prior to building it. Recently I drew a set of planes for a new wing using the GP P51D airfoil and enlarged the ribs to fit the plans.The P51B flys great and does almost any manuver of a pattern ship. I am posting the photos of each wing. See if you can tell the differece.
