Official FlightLine 850mm P-51D Mustang Thread

[Deadpool]

Hello, just whanted to share my Flightline 850mm P-51 mustang, Now that I found the probleme with the gyro this plane is a blast Love it I have two version of it. PS sorry if I make spelling mistake I am a french Canadian :)

Got to say, I always use velcro too, straps along will never do the job as good.

Flew my P-51 again this weekend as we try and shoot a follow up video this week. I can't decide if I like the 3s or 4s better. Its great to have the power with the 4S, but with the 3S you have to fly it smarter to get it looking more scale simply as you don't have that extra power as an option to help make life more easier ;) That said, its more 'fun' on 4S. So I would be interested to know, quick call out, you guys mostly flying on 3S or 4S set-ups?

A pic attached of my RAF scheme just as she came into land this weekend, decals from Callie Graphics ;)

I like that scheme. I haven't flown yet. I'm waiting for Nervous Energy decals from Callie.

Where did you place your 4s for CG?

Did you paint the leading edge of the ailerons?

I have been flying mine on 4S. I prefer the power as it's too much fun to yank and bank...Total pylon racer, love it.

Thanks, I thought I was going to be the only crazy one to get rid of the strap and use velcro. Glad I'm not the only one ☺.

I always put Velcro on my batteries and trays I bet I have used a mile of it.

Love the red tail tribute thisguy65! Looks great...

Excellent choice! Great job! :Cool:

Thanks USC! I have that squadron livery on my 1600mm Spitfire (not Johnny Johnson) and for my soon to arrive 1400mm P-40B.

Lots of great schemes out there. Thanks for sharing your pics and knowledge. I am looking forward to adding a rudder to mine eventually.
Until then, here is my hack version of the RCAF 403 Squadron - a post-war scheme

Excellent choice! Great job! :Cool:

Oh it was fine...It was a one time deal. Now if I always flew her by the ocean? Maybe a different deal.

[F4ucorsair]
