 |  Advice for an old man
I enjoy building models of all sorts. It's been afew years since my last plane so I guess at this stage I hacve bitten off more than I can chew. I don't fly them, That's my sons job. Have started building a Topflite P47DThunderbolt Giant scale. I am living in China for the moment so info and supplies are hard to find. I have bought a OS BGW-1 3500 glow motor and am looking for a small in-cowling exhaust. I have looked at several but unsure what one I should go for. Help! Does anyone have or has built the P47D giant from Topflite that could help me with information about any updates or improvements. It is early in my build so I want to hear it all. I am also seeking information on the availability of an equivalanet 2 blade 20x 8 or 20x10 prop, but I want one more original in 4 blade. Have searched a lot of sites but unsure of the best way to go. Any ideas. Thanks in anticipation. Sleepy |

I built one a few years back. I went together real easy and straight as an arrow. I had a ZDZ 60 in it. I even put gear doors in. This one should be easy for any experienced builder.
