E-flite P-47D with Flaps and Retracts
 

This video is the complete Unboxing, Review, Build, and Maiden Flight for the new E-flite P-47 Thunderbolt BNF Basic with AS3X Technology. This is pretty much the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt version of the E-flite P-51 Mustang Dallas Doll that so many in the RC community have been excited about since its release last Fall. That one was modeled after one of the most famous WWII Warbirds in history, the North American P-51 Mustang.

Here are my review notes:

Cons:

- I had to replace the motor before I could fly it
- The hatch design is a step backward from the Dallas Doll Mustang
- The velcro that secures the battery ripped before the first flight

Pros:

- It has a beautiful finish
- Very easy build and radio set-up in my Spektrum DX6
- Retracts and flaps installed
- Its wide stance helps make landings easier

I finally got to fly it! :)

awesome mate, but why have you put this thread in 5 different sub forums, warbirds and warplanes, rc scale aircraft, backyard flyers and park flyers, rc product review and this one don't you think one is enough.

I had to give you something to do on your Saturday morning and to provide you with an opportunity to show off your hall monitoring skills.

In all seriousness, it fits all of those categories, therefore it made sense to post it in those places.

RCU rules state post in one forum only.

Thank you for letting me know that Terry. I sincerely wasn't aware of that, but I found where it says that in the rules after your post.

Mods, please do as you wish with my threads related to this topic. I will only post in one moving forward.
