Are the B-25 prop blades identical to the P-38 and F7F? Both 12x7x3

I'm thinking the same thing. I was never crazy about how the props attached to the prop shaft on the Tigercat, this system seems better. You might have to swap out the prop shaft too I would think. Aros, you know where we're going with this, is it plausible?

[Aros]

They "appear" to be but I'll get confirmation on that too...

[Red Flyer]

Aros, are the stars and bars also waterslide decals?

RF

[Aros]

I'm going to say yes but I need to confirm...

Peajay5 I thought I would never see the day I would like a red Corsair but I stand corrected!

Ahh thank you!!!!! it's really going to be nice on this next build. I'm going to add a clearcoat over it this time

borntoolate that's a great mod. Love that livery. Those guys (BS 498) fought long and hard. Beautiful work. Best, LB

If I get a good solid nose, I am planning to modify my B25 into a Fighting Falcon's gunship from the 498th Bomb Squadron. I previously modified a FMS B-25 into this version.

PJ, As Evan D wrote, Welcome to "The Squawk".

Great to read you've jumped in with 2 new models.

Nicely Done, Sir.

The Sabre is on my 'must have list' and the Mitchell is on pre-order, too.

I think the 3 liveries offered are representative of the "J" Model and are stunning.

Though I'm thinking of modding a "C" model, so I, for one, will be looking at different livery choices.

Best, LB

Ahh thanks! I have 8 planes already from Eflite and FMS so I figured I would Jump in the Motion RC pool!

I saw all the graphics on cali graphics for the B25. I bought some graphics for a F4U corsair I painted a while ago. I had dead aileron servo and crashed it. I got all new parts and rebuilding it again.

When I was younger I played in B-25’s that were mil aid to Uruguay but the scheme was super boring. Plain aluminum with the colors on the rudders and a nose number.

[Elbee]

Is anyone else thinking of doing a different color paint scheme for the B25?

Thank you!

I ordered mine and I'm excited to fly it. I also ordered the F86 Sabre the same day I picked up the B25. This was my first time ordering from Motion RC! :)

[Red Flyer]

Stars and Bars , are they waterslide decals?

I’d like to safely remove them and replace with RCAF markings.

i do have the Freewing Mosquito, but it is still new in the box. Too rare for me to build and possibly crash!!!

Bob

Probably good to keep that one in the box! I had one many years ago that I eventually painted up as a USAAF photo recon plane with a bright red tail on it and the rest in PRU blue. Really looked and flew great in RAF and USAAF colors. Eventually wore it out enough to the point where I donated it to a aviation museum in the Denver area. They've since moved to Idaho, so not sure what the status of that airplane is, but it still looked great the last time I saw it. Wish someone would come out with another mosquito, maybe a larger one, I'd snap that thing up in a second!

Cheers
