Hi I have some old pilot kits too. I also have one build. its the P-51D Mustang. I used to fly this with an OS 40. anyways RC flying is an old hobby kinda on again off again. My first project is to restore my mustang but i cant find my plans. anyone got the plan?

Wing span is approx 48 inches.


I crashed this plane in 97 and started repairs but never finished.

regards,
Aamir

ORIGINAL: actionjackson

Hi all,

I ran across this thread and it inspired me to climb into my crawl space and have a look. I built my first Pilot kit in the early 80's and have been in love with them ever since. The quality of wood and parts fit were such that it made other kits of the day seem like punishment. I bought quite a few and stuck them in my parent’s attic. I started racing my full size car so I put away all of my RC things. Almost 20 years later I got the bug again and started digging out my old stuff. The wife and kids that developed during those 20 years made it harder to find building time so I picked up a few ARF's to keep me going while I build. It was sad to see how few quality kits were still available so I started trying to find many of the Pilot kits I wanted but didn't pick up when they were available. I love their quarter scale kits but I don't have the building room for anything bigger than .60-.90 size. Here is what I have so far.
I'm really hoping you can help here. I have just re-vamped my pitts that i built years ago. I still have the box but when i looked inside, i only have half the plan......yip, the rear half, so my question is this - where is the recommended CofG ? This little pitts was quite a handfull IIRC and a rearward CofG Is the last thing i need.

Any help you can give me is much appreciated.
john

This has always worked for me.

Les

p.s., I did one of those once, and it was fantastic; once you got it off the ground. Until then, it was a squirrel and you needed a heli pad to fly from:-))))))))))

John I have the same model waiting for restoration and finishing.

Although I also lost the original plans I was lucky enough of finding a new set a Spanish modeler offered second hand. I will check it this evening after work and will give you the needed information.

- QB25H II (NIB)
- Zero Fighter 30 Lasercut (NIB)
- Suprastar 25 (RTF)

Got some EZ Arfs as well:

- Cessna 40


Cheers!
Gerard

Ferio,

Let me be the first to congratulate you on that AWESOME finishing job. If it flies half as good as it looks, you'll be the envy of the other flyers out at the field.

I just picked up my first pilot kit the other day, I also got a plan for the nieuport 28, but the plans don't have all the part outlines.
Anyone out there happen to have traced the parts before they built theirs?

" I also got a plan for the nieuport 28, but the plans don't have all the part outlines. "

I assume that this is NOT a Pilot Nieuport, and if so, you should probably say whose.

"Thanks Les, you are a big help."

I asked, BECAUSE, every set of Pilot plans I have HAVE all of the templates printed directly on the plan, and you could scratch build all of them with nothing else:=((((((((((((
