Has anyone flown The World Models P-82 Twin Mustang? What are it's flight characteristics? What # plane would it be?

As this has been posted in the beginners section I assume you are a beginner?

A twin engined model of any description is definitely not a beginners machine. A twin engined warplane is about as far from a beginners aircraft as it's possible to get.

It's extremely likely you will spend 60% of the time you own the aircraft trying to get it prepared to fly, 39% of the time walking to the piece of ground just below the last place it will ever fly, and 1% of the time flying.

If those percentages appeal to you, then go ahead.

Otherwise forget the coolness of a twin Mustang, and look at the coolness of becoming a good enough pilot to fly it by flying something easier.

You won't regret it. Flying anything is fun, especially if you fly enough times to get to know it, and what it can do.

Once you have the experience, it will be infinitely more satisfying having a take-off to landing ratio of 1, rather than infinity.

I didn't mean to put this here. I meant to put it somewhere else, and I didn't ask you to tell me how I wouldn't be able to fly it. I know I'd crash it within the first 30 seconds after takeoff, I was just wondering how it flew. I have no intention of getting one until much later.

Oh!

Sorry, my mindreading abilities were a little off yesterday. I assumed you wanted a reply when you asked a question.

Silly me!

I was trying to save you a lot of heartache, both financial and psychological. That'll teach me, won't it?

Incidentally, you will come across many people in this hobby who genuinely want to save you the costs involved in making mistakes. Unless you know everything, I'd listen to them occasionally.

I, for one, don't know as much as I'd like to about this hobby, and probably never will, but am very grateful when I read the words of anybody in this great forum. Maybe you haven't yet seen your hard work and money piling into the ground as a result of not taking somebody's advice, but you probably will.

In the meantime, I apologise for answering your question to the best of my ability.

I know; forget what I said and take this as my reply:-

It flies great! You should definitely spend your money and get one as soon as possible.

OK now?

If this was posted in the wrong fourm you can simply hit the report this post to a moderator button. We will then move it to the appropriate fourm. There was good information given in response to the question as it regards this (beginner) fourm. It is not unusual for a beginner to think that flying planes much beyond their capability is not at all impossible or unsusual.

Since this is going no where (good) fast it will be closed.
