TopFlite 1/5 scale P51 ARF
Went to the Chicago Hobby Show this weekend and the highlight for me was definitely the new TopFlite P51 ARF. I was very impressed at the quality of this ARF, even up close!
For $469 it's a great buy. Comes with molded wheel wells, cockpit kit, and even an aluminum spinner! The ailerons and flaps are radius and pocket, not beveled. It's all set up for Robart retract mains AND tailwheel. Most builders would be hard pressed to put together a kit that looks this good. TopFlite did an excellent job on this one.

It is the giant scale at 84.5". There are already two threads on RCU talking about it.
One of the guys in one of the threads got an early version for review.
