Is that motor a 2 stroke? If you can I would go for a four stroke at least in the range of an .90 or something. You don't want an underpowered Mustang thats for sure. From what I hear, at low speeds they can have a tendency to stall if not enough air goesacross the wing, regardless of the manufacturer. Another manufacturer that makes a great first-time Warbird is VQ. They are cheap, well made, and extremely forgiving. They make both B and D version Mustangs, along with some other unique airframes. I race both the Veltro and Hurricane and they fly great. In fact, my very first fuel plane was the Veltro and it handles like a trainer.
