Yes it has gone left both times it has been landed. One time at some altitude as it was turned to land and it ended up in a tree. The next time it was about 25 feet up on a landing approach 1/3 throttle and I thought to cut the throttle and let it come on down. It snapped very quickly to the left and did some good damage.It can be repaired but I will wait to get it back into the air. A friend has an electric P40,foam, with about a 50 inch wing span and his tip stalled to the left at about 4 ft. altitude when he cut the throttle on landing.Is this common on P-40s? I wonder.
