Old Topflite Mustang, P51-B


Recommended Posts

I just got hold of this Mustang P51_b

 

It is a semi scale top flite built model, With a wingspan of 60", It may be the rc-16 red box model, But i cant be sure till i get the plans,

 

Air up, Spring down robart retracts,,,, Wire type legs though, :(

 

It has the old type Cockpit style, Not the bubble,

 

Glassed and spray painted in the old traditional way,

 

It is at least 9 years old as far as i know,

 

Saito FA-72, fitted

 

I have done a few bits and pieces on it to get it flying nicely,

Still need to give the engine a good test, It has good compression and the bearings seem to be smooth running

 

I have been promised the plans for it with cg, Throws, Exact model etc, I am still awaiting them

 

Nice and well weathered model,,

 

Cant wait to give it a go up the field when the weather allows,,

Will do that Mickey, Good to hear from you mate,

 

On your advice, I flew it like the acrowot,,, And it worked,

 

Although the runway was a bit rough, I had a job getting it up,,,, But thats life, :lol:
