Default RE: Art-Tech P51 Mustang

Hiya again!! Nothing wrong with the Trojan but again it really isn't the best first-timer sort of plane. If it was me , knowing what I now know, I would go for the F27b Stryker or F27C (b/less, lipo etc). Why? This bird fly straight from the box! its quite fast (F27C is awesome!!), and you only have to worry about two control surfaces - ailerons, or elevons as they're called. Its tough but can be fixed with tape and epoxy and still fly. If it comes to the end of its life (RIP) you can buy a complete new shell and nose for £15 (about american price of cheap ESC) and upgrade or swap the innards to new shell. Paint it any colour you want, even pink!!! And it looks good, always will!! My personal view only (my planes, Swift, ME262 edf, Zagi, Mini zagi, 3D Profile, 3 Strykers, Beaver). Professional flyer, well, I'm retired aged 55 and fly 7 days a week. Lucky me!!!
