wow, that's fast! and it looks so nice in the air, very scale. I think if (when!) I get one of these, I'd need a bit of expo on the tx :)

[HobbykingLive]

cruddiestcrudever I was using 60% expo but with the dual rate set at 100% the plane still maneuvers really quick!

Great little warbird Frank and have you tried HK's little spektrum rx yet the parkflyer receiver ones?? ($15.95) i got a couple the other week and they are the business for the price and fit into the mini swift really well,just as good as the real spektrum rx's in my book,do they do a spitfire in the same range as this P-51 do you know?

[HobbykingLive]

startazz haven't tried the orange rx yet, but want too soon. As for a spitfire in this size there isn't one at the moment, but it wouldn't suprize me if they come out with one later. Would love to see it!

@turkishflight1010 He says at 5:30 that the plane is eps foam. I've found that if you wrap eps with packing tape it help protect it during belly landing.

Hi there i am a new guy to the hobby world of planes. i have had alot of exerience with helis but not much with aircraft. I would like to know if there is any plane you would suggest. i have only ever flown a hobbyzone champ rtf and am looking to upgrade. Any suggestions would be gladly accepted- Thomas

[youronlycow]

Is this eps plane? I don't understand why eps is still used apart from it's smooth finish. Anyone??

[Zvexii]

Short question. Does anybody know the excat center of gravity? In the manual it says 1/3 of the wing but I am not sure where to measure this.

Anybody a clue?

@glenncol they have always got back to us ...i think they have one of the best customer services around now :) ...have another try you may have had bad luck!

Flight time on 1050 2S?

Hobbyking, how about stop making videos to try flog your gear and concentrate on getting your customer service up to scratch, i have been working in the customer service field for 20 years and so far yours is one of the most inconsistent and at times annoying customer service departments that blatantly lie to customer and just plainly dont care. Yes yes you will say make a formal complaint which i have done and nobody gets back too you, so this is the next best forum

No mention of CG in your review. This is where a lot of people have problems with this model. Most don't realize how far forward the CG is on a Mustang

[X2CT]

hello, what's the exact replacement for the propeller. i broke mine doing a hard landing. hoping for your reply. Thank you.

[theleabres]

you didn't mention the CG? Where is it? I bought and have this plane but I need the CG before the maiden. Please post. anyone.
