Official FlightLine 1600mm B-25J Mitchell PNP Thread

[Elbee]

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

[Aros]

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

[Red Flyer]

Aros, are the stars and bars also waterslide decals?

RF

[Aros]

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

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?

On it...Our resident Freewing Liaison will be finding out shortly. Stand by.

I can't tell from the photos or videos on this beauty that I have seen, and maybe Aros or one of you guys know? The connectors from the ESC are those XT90's or XT60's that go into the the EC5 adapter? Also curious what drove the incorporation of 50 amp ESCs and 450kv motors when the stock power system of 3748-600kv with 60 amp ESCs (i.e. F7F and P-38) using 4S with XT60 connectors has been proven in 1600mm sized twins for several years. Not questioning the engineering that went into this, just curious and don't get me wrong, I am VERY happy to see the 6S and have felt for a long time that both the Tigercat and the Lightning maybe should have been 6S as stock.

[Evan D]

Xt60…

While we are asking.... could we also get the size of the tires? Robart will look better IMO

[Sigs1]

Just ordered my B25 can't wait!!!

[Elbee]

Sigs1, Congrats and Welcome to Hobby Squawk, Sir. Best, LB

[Larry D]

Xt60…

Thanks Evan.

[Aros]

Not ignoring fellas, just wanted you to know I am on vacation and when I get back next Monday I will see if I can get the requested info.
