RE: Top Flite Redbox P-51
The Red Box P-51 was designed by Dave Platt when he started to work for Top Flite, it was his first design for them.
Several months later a conversion kit was released that you could convert the B model to a D. It had a bubble canopy and several fuse formers and instructions.
He did the P-51, P-40 and P-39 (people wanted a nose gear model) and the SE-5A before he left to form his own company.
The early SE-5A kits came with the plans pre-waxed so you didn't have to use wax paper.
