Check that the wing has at least 2degrees washout and fly it with authority. Good luck, a nice looking model by the way.

Hey Merlin Man there is a gentleman who has posted regarding the Platt Mustang over on RC Groups who I'm sure would be very interested in your experienced input. Check out the link below if you have a few minutes to spare.
