    This has been dead for months, I just picked up one up on a trade and had to dig back in memory and here for the fixes you had to do, I seems to remember my old bird flew very well with minium work, it was until I changed the tires that the problems with touching the props and ground became an issue.
    Just let me fly so I may be free

      My friend bought one and had me do the maiden, the plane would porpuse up and down the whole flight , I was lucky to get it down in one piece. Found the elevator servo was junk as it would never go back to center. Put a new better servo and now flies great. I ended up with the plane. Great flyer , seems like it could use more weight to it. I fly mine with a 4s 6000mah because thats what I use in my Flightline P-38. Takeoffs off nice , lands smooth as butter . I think it has more then enough power. I fly mostly at 3/4 power . Im going to change the wheels to something more scale looking , Paint the sturts silver and give a good weather job . Also need to find better looking pilots

        I just received one new model for New Years eve. Going to follow everyone's advice to check all aeras and will add the tail shim. Out of the box w/no problems. installed rec. and checked all control functions. Everything works as advertised.

        Best Regards, Rex

          While checking my list of things to check on I removed the wing and labeled all the disconnects of servos under the wing. after removing wing, I found all the wing hold downs were not glued and easily removed. This will be a first priority. Reassembled complete plane and hung up until I finish my P-47. At least I can look up and see it hovering over the workbench.

          Best Regards,Rex

              Thanks for the photos. I want to paint mine like it has been used well. In pictures of the B-26 they show a lot of paint chipping and more weathered than the fighters in Europe. Planning on painting mine from the 320th bomb group with the shark mouth.

                Good choice! That will look great!
