Don't waste your time. Did everything right. Had enough airspeed and as soon as it lifted off it rolled hard right straight into the ground.

I like this plane overall, but had to make some major changes to the servo linkage on the elevator and rudders, as the system they had simply does not move far enough to realistically fly this plane; put in extra servos for the elevator and rudders and added a UBEC. A 3000 mAh battery will not fit in the canopy, so I had to carve out foam to make it fit. Once this was done, it flies well and can easily do sport aerobatics. Flaps work good at slowing the plane down. Retracts are a joke - I don't even bother raising them when in flight - they are very weak and do not work well. The plane looks great in the air, but it will take some work to get it there.

I really love this B-25 model. Flown it in all weather conditions, fast and slow, off tarmac and wet long grass, and everything is A-OK.
Can't find any major faults, only one small niggle on construction is the geometry of the elevator and rudder pushrods and bellcranks, apart from that flies well.
The retracts have worked well, I though they would come adrift, but still in place, unlike the Lancaster (easy glue fix, though, no problem). Flaps are really useful in light wind and slow the a/c down nicely.
Recommended, check out those scale Hamiltons!!!

Actually, can you get spare B-25 props? Please HK...?

The aircraft is very beautiful. However, retracts do not scale. I changed them to scale retracts and made the cover. Now the plane in the sky looks like the real thing.

I purchased my B25 with high hopes , having seen the video and read the reviews.
Any concern with the bell crank system on the elevator dispersed on the first flight.
I used 20pcntflap on take off on our grass strip..
The B 25 is a dream to fly with long low passes power to spare for clime outs.
Also its capable of some not so scale roll's and loops !
Landing's just so scale and cool with gear down or belly land , hand launching is easy !
Nice one Hobby King.

The product came with several defective components out of the box, including the nose gear and elevator servo. The plane does look good, but the quality of the components used is questionable.

Nice plane!
I've added there servo powered bomb container, changed elevator to two servos instead of one from the box. Two additional flaps and enforced motor mounts

Flies well, logical approach when assembling and the local board is a nice touch - making wiring connections easier.

Detail is incredible for a foam model
