Default Jetcat P-40?

Disagree totally, completely.
A full scale airliner is a poor analogy. They have the Reynolds numbers on their side.
All this stuff becomes MUCH more critical, the smaller the plane becomes. I just built a 39" Sabre. On THAT plane, two pounds would be the difference between flying and not flying. Period. And there is a big difference between an Mw44 based plane, and a P-80 based plane. Apples and oranges.
I don't know if Jetcat desperately needs to get into the R500/12 pound class...there are several choices there already, and several more coming. But the SMALLER class that is coming out, the MW44, JS50, well...I think that market will be booming.
