Default RE: solo'd my p-51 PTS


ORIGINAL: WildBillKelso

I have the P-51 PTS as well. I have the flap servo and it does help. Still is a little harder to land then my arrow 40 though and I never had the speed brakes on mine. Only thing I dont like is the landing gear is so weak. My right gear block busted all up after only a few flights and I would say the landing was not that hard. Not the best but not that hard. Had to replace the plane after a crash and same thing happened again with the right gear block coming apart on the new one. The one big weak point I see in this trainer.
Hey Wild Bill, I just ordered the Arrow 40 and the P-51 PTS ARFs this morning. Since it seems you are training with both, I'd be curious to hear more. I plan on throwing the Arrow together first and fly that while I take my time building the P-51 since it seems to have quite a list of "To Do's" that should be done before flying.
