Holy crap that's big! I just had my third flight today with the P-38 so I'm no where near bored yet. Loops and rolls well. Will try another prop for more speed thrust. Speed is fine. Lands very well. Makes me look good and that is a job!

WHAT are you going to use for motor, esc and batteries?????????????

I don't know if the Eflite 46 is big enough but I can tell you it is a powerful motor. A buddy of mine has one and it will pull a 72" WS 5 lb trainer off the runway in a hurry and climb almost straight vertical on a 4 cell pack. I had a Tower Pro 3520-7 in a 5 Lb 3D machine and felt it did a good job but was not as capable as the 46 from eflite. 1/2 the price but I would go with the 46 next time.
