Hi There,

I've built two of these now.

Here is the video of my maiden, in which I also talk about the power setup.

Here is the second flight.

The 2nd build is powered by a NGH 17cc petrol engine. I have not yet flown it. But will post videos once I do.

I have built two of these VQ Models P-47/NEXA P-47 models, one electric and one petrol powered. I think they are fantastic value and they look and fly great.


Here is just 48secs of my VQ Models P-47/NEXA P-47 models engine test. I just love the sound ! (Yes, I realise that it is just a weed-whacker) but it still sounds great.


The maiden will be in a few weeks.

I’m late to my build but really excited with how it’s turned out. I installed the motor, spinner, and prop from an FMS 1500mm razorback. The planes are similar in size and weight so should work nicely and I love the scale appearance. Retracts will be here soon from Motion rc and the maiden come spring.
