I have the VQ Zero. It's pretty good quality for an ARF. I strengthened the wing center joint with some fiberglass cloth and epoxy. I glued some strips of 1/8" plywood to the underside of the horizontal stab because it seemed a little weak.

Mine has a Magnum .61 two stroke and it flies great! Goes like a rocket but still handles well at slow speed. My only real problem is that the plastic parts are starting to crack (I've been flying it for about a year).

If you want info about the P-38, look in the Twin Aircraft forum. Lot of good info there.

My buddy has the P-38 twin.
He said that it needed some work to make it up to his satisfaction.
I have flown his plane and it is a excellant flyer.

The twins forum does have a lot of info on this and the KMP. I was flying another VQ P-38 this morning and still like it.
Another source is our sister website at rcwarbirds.com or directly to http://www.rcwarbirds.com/P38flightreport.htm
Good Luck,
Twinman
