Will keep posted on the p-40 but is mainly under the "any 60 size warbirds with flaps" thread. I had to wait for the plane to see what servos were needed. Standards will work all around but I will use one higher performance servo for the elevator since it is on a wire split yoke and the pinned hinges are stiffer then ca hinges. And of course a retract servo.
Directions are fair, 12 pages long and drawing oriented, but this plane comes with rod tubes in place already, split flaps installed, wing bolts drilled and really neat blind nuts in place. (they are the threaded portion with large 1" square back plates. No pulling out here. ) The tail Stablizer goes on in halfs with a through the fuse tube and pegs with set screws just like those used on 2 piece wings for 1/4 scale planes. Basically, unless this is your first plane, you do not need directions with how complete this plane is.

They also include nice BIG wheels, so grass field flying is not going to be a problem. the retracts are rotating and fold back in scale fashion for the P-40. they even have working shocks or whatever the proper term is.
Will start construction mid week when servos come in and will post some pics then.
