I agree, P47 is all about business, big, well armed. It could take a beating.
Some stories about 47's being shot to pieces and still bringing pilot safely to the base are amazing.

The Pied Piper is Top Flite kit, 5th scale, has Zenoah G62, magneto and spring starter(love that thing), 22x10 prop. Robart gear, Futaba 9001 servos(replacing with hitec 645MG shortly) I've flown it few times only, it's stable and powerful flier.

Little Demon is Hangar 9, Power110 motor with APC15.5x12x4 prop, CC ICE100A ESC, 6S5000 lipo, Eflite gear, Hitec 225MG servos. I added gun lights (LED's in the nozzles), gun sound modules, retract sequencers, inner gear doors, tail retract, and planning to add tail gear doors.
It produces about 1200W, and weights 13lbs. It is very stable, and has enough power. I may try 7S battery at some point. Here's video:
