I don't have one, almost all the gasser guys I fly with have one or the F4U. They all fly them together, they all start jabbering and laughing, I don't care, I'm still not getting one............................................... ...

I'm not getting one. I have the Focke Wulf 190 I changed out to 2.4 and added 2 aileron servos and its as agile as the T-28 now.

So next I'll be getting the BF109 that is due out this month.

The T-28 is probably the best flying warbird parkzone makes.. I personally have the corsair and I love it. You wont be disappointed with the T-28 though.

Just make sure if you buy one, that all your flying buddies get them too! It makes for an exciting time!

I HAD one of those....it flew great! Its a great park-flyer. I sold mine because it was nearly impossible to land on grass without burying the nose, and for me that is a deal breaker. If you are taking off and landing on concrete its a dynamite plane.
EDIT: It still buried the nose even when i put larger gear on it.

parkzone nailed it with the new warbird series, the zfoam takes a beating, and the plan form flys great, no bad habits. the t28 is great but i wasnt to big on the looks, the corsair is awsome and flys great. the smaller remake of the mustang is a ton of fun with bigger motor, it seems the faster you get it the smoother it is. the new bf 109 looks great.. i have been waiting for the 'vilan' planes to come out. the feel that these planes are for noobs is way off, they fly good and anywhere, and 15 minit flights on the systems rtf, cant go wrong for those lazy evenings and formation flying. also if you check out the stuff on rcg these planes are super fun to repaint and upgrade, thing of it as a durable way to get the warbird you always wanted.. I posted a video of the p51 here ill link it in.

the T28 kicks @ss! I have one, I love it! I always take it to the field. I fly it off grass all the time with zero nose overs ever, so not sure how your landing it to make it do that, mine is stock with the little wheels. You must be flying it in an uncut field?

On the hobbyking 2200 packs I get almost 20min flying time! Awesome plane!

There's my Fock Wulf.......may she rest in pieces.

It was only about $36 to replace all the parts though and I flew the new one last night.

The HK packs are the bomb. I get 15mins easy and 20 mins if you watch your full throttle. Also I updated the FW-190 to 2.4 with a spektrum RX. Then I spent $14 from HK for a new ESC that could handle the brushed motor and lipos and 3 HXT900 servos for the wing and elevator. It now flies faster than the T-28 and can loop and roll at will.

I was going to upgrade the motor as well but I like being about the same speed as everyone else so when we do foamation time its crazy fun!
