Welcome, I have read thruogh this thread and have come to the conclusion you are in the fast lane of disaster. Sorry but to be honest with you , you would be best served with more of a trainer plane than what you are about to do.

The older kits were built for less power than we have at our dispoal now, and the wings were designed to match , from what I have read your understanding of aerodynamics is lacking. Please don't be offended by my words My intent is to save you greif.
Warbirds is the road to crashes for new comers (ask me how I know) unless you have a successful pilot at your disposal don't try to fly that spit it won't last.
no reason you can't build it but you mentioned modifying it without the knowledge to do it properly. to be quite honest your understanding is exactly opposite your intent. the older scale kits were not for those with limlted knowledge. or flying skills.

If what I have said offends you please accept my deepest apologies but I find being diplomatic on these sites spells disaster for many new comers. Don't try to out guess the designer of the kits unless you have the true ................... I've said enough
and I don't want to offend. good luck, I wish you only the best.
