I have two of there P47 Thunderbolts and if it's as great as they are, then you can't go wrong.
Real high quality of the built, not built in China but in Vietnam.
Go for it.
Good luck

RE: P-36A hawk
IT'LL SCREAM WITH THAT SAITO IN HER!
I'VE GOT A G20 IN MINE (I'M JUST SICK OF THE SLIMEY CLEAN UP AND THE HIGH COST OF NITRO).
THE G20 HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH POWER, SO I USED A MORE SCALE LIKE 3 BLADE PROP.
THUS FAR I THINK I'M THE ONLY GUY FLYING ONE, ALTHOUGH SEVERAL GUYS ON RCU HAVE SAID THEY'VE ORDERED THEM.
THE WRITE UP/ TEST MODEL WAS FLOWN WITH AN ELECTRIC ENGINE.
IT'S A VERY LIGHT AIRPLANE SO A .60 REALLY WOULD GLY IT JUST FINE, BUT I'M A POWER*****...SO I'D PROBABLY HAVE USED A SAITO 100FS .
IT'S A SHAME ABOUT THE WHEELS AS MY RETRACTS ARE BUGGARS.
THE PLANE IS A REAL BEAUTY IN THE AIR AND GETS LOTS OF ATTENTION AS IT'S UNUSAUL ENOUGH TO GET MOST PEOPLE TO THINK IT'S A P-47.
