This is my third P-51 Mustang like this from Nitroplanes. They have made some small changes since the version 2. The main gear canted forward is probably the best change because now the plane doesn't want to tip forward on landing. The slower KV motor 4250-500 reduces the rpm of the prop so the top speed is also reduced. Running the 13 x 9 2 bladed prop with a 5s 3300 mah battery produces a 77 mph top speed. Running the same prop with a 6s 2650 mah top speed increases to 92 mph.Both runs verified by onboard GPS I should let you know I was going to put an 80amp speed control in but when I check it had a 65 amp from the factory which was more than adequate for the amps it was pulling. (The specs say it comes with a 50 amp esc). My version 2 Mustang finally bit the dust after a high speed turn, the left aileron failed and came off. I had about 80-90 flights on that plane and the foam was getting pretty worn so I got my moneys worth out of it.
