Need help for a final choice......
 

Ok , i decided to go with a RTF warbird from Parkzone for a 2nd plane.
THere is 3 different model , i like them all but cant make my mind.

the P-51D Mustang ??

the Focke Wulf 190 ??

or the Spitfire ??

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

The Spitfire.

It's the newest of the three, so any problems or quirks that occurred with the P-51 or FW-190 are more likely to be worked out of the model.

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

That's easy. Go right down the line.

Second plane P-51, Third, FW, and fourth, The Spitfire.

Should take about an afternoon if you take your time.

LOL at agexpert!

If I recall, QUESTO has some RC experience. He probably would be smart enough to keep the Spitfire in the box if he instantly shredded his P-51 and FW-190 on their maidens.

I just couldn't resist.

LOL , yeah , well im not the best pilot , but i can control the supercub well , can do loop , land pretty well , im ready for the 2nd level.

I read a couple of post and look at some video and comments , look like the spitfire will do the job. well i think?

Did they work out that issue with the wing tips?

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

I've seen the Mustang fly, it's pretty quick, particularly so if you use a LiPo battery instead of the stock NiMh battery pack. If you've gotten really good with the Super Cub it might be worth a shot, though. What the heck? It's only money.

The only other thing that I can think of that might be a good stepping stone would be something like the Phase 3 Swoop RTF from Hobby People:

Flying wings are pretty durable, and the Swoop should be a bit easier to fly than one of the warbirds while still getting you used to higher performance flight. It's a tough call though, there may not be that big of a difference between the Swoop and a Parkzone warbird. If you like the Swoop, try one before you buy a warbird, otherwise go straight to your Spitfire.

Let us know how you do with your warbird.

Is it me or the Spitfire look lighter than the P51 ?

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

Interestingly enough, Parkzone lists the following flying weights:

P-51 - 29 ounces
FW-190 - 28 ounces
Spitfire - 26 ounces

That makes the Spitfire a full 10.35% lighter than the Mustang.

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

Spitfire ALL THE WAY. 3 wire servos (Interchangeable), no contest. Plus it looks better imo.

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

Look like the Spitfire is the winner , only cost 14$ cad more than the 2 others.

THanks for the helpfull replys!

RE: Need help for a final choice......
 

Or buy my like new P-51... so I can get the Spitfire:D JK; git the Spit. I want one but can't justify it as I already have the Mustang.
