Skyshark P-40 ARF
Got a chance to see this bird at the show in the new Camo scheme. This plane is a real looker and I may have to add one to the hangar here soon. I'm still itching for a large gas warbird, and although I do love the P-51 and P-47, the P-40 has always been one of my favorites.
http://www.skysharkrc.com/p40.htm I'm looking to see if I've got a pic of the camo version from the show somewhere. |

Re: Skyshark P-40 ARF
You have /had a warbird JeeUm. I wanted to see you get that Cat done. As for the P-40, it IS my warbird of choice...

Re: Skyshark P-40 ARF
That's a done deal. Alot of backstory with that plane. Someone else has it now. Just didn't work out. |

Re: Skyshark P-40 ARF
looks good jee. what size is it?? only thing to watch out for is it uses rotating retracts and they are a pain in the azz. if it wernt for rotating retracts i would have gotten a corsair. that is my personal favorite. but the p40 is a nice looking plane.

Re: Skyshark P-40 ARF
Think a DA fiddy will fit all the way in that cowl? I'm tempted..

Re: Skyshark P-40 ARF
hey guys, i just got one for mine in tuesday. i pulled it out of the box and cant wait to start working on it. this warbird is my favorite. im going with the revolution 50cc and century jet retracts. ill be putting pics up when i get the building table cleaned off to start working on it. ive got a aerotech 42% extra on it now. the plane arived in very good condition, packaged very well. now to the more expensive part to buy the rest of the planes equipment.

Re: Skyshark P-40 ARF
Guys,
The bird was a tad heavy. Nice, but heavy. The G-62 makes things go a bit better! Pretty zingy, actually! Have about 10 flights on it and lands really slow for a warbird. WT
