My Feedback: (40)

A good friend of mine built his yellow P40 with a DA-50 up front. He was turning a 3 blader and it was a fast plane. IMO a G-62 or similiar size would be more than enough power for this bird. I don't think they will come in much over 25 pounds RTF. The only advantage you would have with the ZDZ 80 would be to turn a larger diameter 3 blade prop. A buddy of mine has a ZDZ 80 in a Yellow Jug. He lives in Denver and even at that altitude it's an absolute rocket.

edit - sorry about the pic size. I can't seem to make them larger on here.
