Hi, first mustang for sunday flying ?


one of the TOP FLITES?

or CMP 140?

or ?

Do not want a small one. Thanks for your help.

Thanks, Glenn Reed.


ps. can't get any one at AKM . have left notes and number's , e- mailed, no reply?

Top Flite would be my choice,kit or ARF.Tom

Check out some of the threads on the cmp 140 sized mustang. It looks mighty impressive and has a fiberglass fuselage, big plus in my book.

YOu can get the CMP P40 for about $199 if you shop around , its very nice and a great sunday flyer .

I just bought the CMP 140, what I like, is that I can completely scale out the plane, but adding little touches here and there. For example, scale retracts, modify the wheel wheels and put in gear doors, there's provisions for a scale tailwheel location, Fiberglass fuse!

I got mine at www.ak-models.com great to deal with and for $219.00, plus $25 for shipping, I thought it was a steal.

Do a search and you'll find the tread that's now just a few days old! Going to Toledo Show to get my retracts! Woo Hoo!

know exactly what you mean I have the 73" P40 , a few tweeks and it will look like a Kit built Pica !!!!

Thanks guy's, would both planes take about the same size engines? And what do think would sound better on a fly by, a big 2 cy. glow or a gasser? And what size. I am not without some skills, but all planes now are 4 strokes.

Thanks for all your time and replys.

I have the TF 51 with a OS BGX1 35cc glow engine this plane flies very very nice and sounds great with a Jtec inverted pitts muffleralso has Robart retracts and on board glow.I have seen the CMP 51 and is also a very nice plane

Thanks for your reply crownvic, I am leaning toward the TF because I like to build .

Thanks, Glenn.
