Pilots the fog was so bad today I had to stay in the pattern. Check out the water on the leading edges and nose hilarious. If I pulled any vertical she was gone nothing but lights. Great fun and kind of scary.

With the amount of hours and flights that I have on both the P-38 and F7F, not mention the thousands of hours others have on these two with the exact same power system I haven't yet heard of anyone having an issue. They work as advertised in completely stock configuration so no need to add anything extra to the power system.

I am going to use the main gears because they have no issues and do look scale, just waiting for them to restock and also an answer from Motion on the ability to buy individual parts and not a $50 set, here's the link to that request.

Had an awesome day today flying with three Tigercat's in the air. The weather was perfect.
With the flight of the P-38 and two Tigercat's, The FlightlineRC P-38 was a bit faster than the Tigercat's. Ran about 3/4 throttle to match the Tigercat speed.
I really like the addition of the belly tank, looks really good in flight.
It it was a lot of fun Justin And Pete. Let's do this again soon!

Phatbob,
You want the CG to be in between 65-70 measured with gear up. The range is per the general concensus over on RCG and all aft retracting gear are done with gear up.
There are ney-sayers in modeling to that standard about gear up/down but you don't know what their maiden success ratio is also!!! ;)Warbird Charlie
