I can't speak to the H9 P51 PTS as I have no personal experience with one, all I truely know about the plane is that it is purty! I do like the concept of having a nice looking Warbird that you can actually train on & strip the training devices as you grow into the plane, leaving you with a plane that you won't grow out of of right away.

I can however agree with J ME65's assestment of the Hobbico NexStar. After getting a little frustrated at my progress with my Tower Trainer & Insturctor, ( no fault of either the plane or Instructor implied ) I bought the NexStar, practiced on the sim that comes with it for a couple of days, went out to the field by myself, & proceeded to fly it. I had a great day & have been off & running since. The AFS system that comes with the plane makes a great paper-weight too!


Hobbico, if you're listening your AFS sells for $99 buy itself, if you were to trash the AFS from the NexStar RTF, you would then have the best RTF Trainer on the market (IMHO) for $299
