Default Whats good?

I want to get in to the fast planes. But i dont realy like the solid wing type planes. Whats a good plane thats fast and very rugged, but can also fly fairly slow? Thanks

Would a p-51 be able to fly pretty fast? I love the looks of that bird. could i make it go fast? or would I have to go with something like a magnum or something like that?

There is one on E-Bay right now.... Any "hot" 50 would work, they come with a West-50 (Modified Webra-)

Should come close to 200 mph!

I have seen the one on ebay but do you know of any supplyer in the us that has them in stock. im wondering because I dont not have the money now and I want to find somebody that has them in stock so I can get it later on. Anybody selling one? I'll trade you a .21 powered hpi racer 2 rtr for it and some cash. Thanks

I don't know about the other deltas, but the Diamond Dust can fly reeeeaaallly slow. With the .32SX I can land at a walking pace. The propjets landing speeds are way faster than the DD.

I know some of the delta wings can fly slow but I dont really like the looks of those planes. I have found a a cermark javelin 2 that looks fast if I put a webra or west .52 in it. would that be good? the plane is really a pattern plane but still looks fast. I also am looking at the cermark F-16. Would that be a better choice for more speed? Thanks

So do not get the javelin or the f-16? Whats the viper? is it a delta wing? or regular looking plane? Also so I cant make a p-51 fast? I just want to go over 100mph maybe more. Thats all not to fast not to slow. Thanks
