I bought this over a year ago and only recently had the space to fly it so just finished putting it together. I replaced the retracts and ESC as recomended in the forums and added oleo legs to soften the landings. With a 4000mA 4S lipo I couldnt balance it at the published COG of 110mm then I learned the CORRECT COG is 140mm. Maidened it last weekend and all went well with just a couple of notches of trim. Flys smoothly and easy to land. Tends to nose over when taxiing on grass (even with full up elevator) due to the position of the undercarriage but otherwise a nice looking and scale flying model.

Took ownership of this big bird recently and very impressed although haven't flown yet. Fairly easy to assemble, it says 95pcnt of the work is done for you but what they don't say is they have left you the most fiddly bits to finish it off. Connecting the tailwheel to the rudder was no easy task and requires tiny fingers and patience! but nonetheless it is a fantastic looking warbird others have said is relatively easy to fly, just waiting for a nice day to try it!

purchased this plane begining jan 2013 found out the esc would not work sent it back to hobbyking they received it on 15th jan it is now the 30th jan still have no esc , borrowed a esc off my friend with hopes of flying this model, only to find the elevator servo would not work at all plus one aileron servo was useless the retracts worked three times then one of them stopped working at all so i have to send all these items back and wait for replacements judging by how long it takes to get things sorted i may be lucky to fly this plane by summer (I DONT THINK SO ) TOTALLY dissgusted i will just put the plane in cupboard and totally forget about it as it is rubbish the customer service leaves much to be desired WILL NOT BE BUYING ANYTHING ELSE OFF HOBBYKING EVER AGAIN AND WILL PASS ON MY EXPERIENCE TO MY FELLOW FLYERS IN MY CLUB

Huge p51,Havnt flown it yet but looks good. Good support in to wing/tail. Retracts are weak though. Takes a few hours to put together and I recommend hinging all the control surfaces.

Great model, I have put strobes in the gun barrels.
After flying it regularly for 12 months with only one spill.
I've put a sound system in it as it has so much room in that huge fuse.
As a result I'm now upgrading the motor to pull the extra weight.
This model is so versatile & a pleasure to fly.
