      70 will be a sweet speed for this plane. Especially if flying formation with the P38! And I like that fpv turret, very nice

        Another interesting touch would be possibly adding a tilt for the guns and camera. But as is. Freaking sweet!

          Been working on Witchcraft some more, this is one fantastic model, if it flies half as good as it looks it will be my new go-to plane.

            A little more done on "Witchcraft" this evening, let me tell you it was a job painting the green under the observation dome...the antenna isn't perfectly scale but I like it ;)

            I really like this propeller setup, I hope FL/FW starts using the one piece prop on their larger birds.

            Plenty of room to add accessories and route wiring, and mounting the "box" to one side of the plastic wing crossmember sure made a great spot to mount the receiver.

            You can see there's plenty of room for the 4S 4000 batteries, they will fit flat or turned up on their side.

                          It's nice to see all that room in there for the electronics.

                            Yeah there's a lot of room inside the B24 as well! ;)

                                I'm thinking TI must be using a 2 or 3-car garage to make room for all the "electronics" - the cars can stay outside! A man's gotta get his priorities straight! :Smug:
