Default RE: General Hobby ARF P-51 kits. Any good?

yep same old planes , its appears to be the flymodel version copies of the CMP planes .
The P40 is a Balsa Products , some problems but a great flyer .
The P51 look to be flymodels , good P51 to bash into more scale , ok vale for the price .
The hellcat is the picture of a real CMP 70" span so you dont know what your getting , they have the span smaller then the facts associted with thge plane in the picture.
Again , its the name game lol , you know I like Hobby King and when they send me emails its from Raidentech - one of the worse sellers ever on RCU , Ebay and in the world lol . BUt as Hobby King they cleaned up there act .

REmember for the most part you will see Nitro PLanes , Raidentech , e garbd buy , general hobby , and about 5 more name all with CMP and cmp copies .

I bought the willshobby seafury on ebay for $129 , same plane general was selling , I bought the 70" hellcat from Flymodels on ebay for about $79 plus $45 for shipping ect .

If your looking for a turn key warbirds , then skip these planes and sellers , I like the mods so there right up my alley for the cost
