    I tried calling him a couple of times, with no response. Mike is correct. Kelly has had some very extreme health issues going on. I can only hope he is ok and pray for a positive outcome.

    I vote a "D" version. But then again, a "B" version would be sweet also. It is unfathomable to imagine a 36% P-51 Mustang in a "B" version. I would love to see you do a build thread. No matter how long it takes. I understand about being consistent. I have been over a year into my 1/4 scale done...

    I will be using the clamps to hold the tubes in place. And yes, you are quite observant. The only way to get into them is through the opening for the ignition lead with a pair of angled nose needle nose plyers or surgical hemostats. Unfortunately the exhaust will not allow the cowl to be put on...

    I played today boys. Played with some warbirds. So that's a bad thing? Not. hee hee….:laughing: Actually I spent the day setting the cowl on the Phoenix Strega. I am always surprised how long it takes to mount an engine and set a cowl. Trying to be very precise about this so it looks nice. I...

    When AKNick takes care of bi-ness, he "REALLY" takes care of bi-ness. The new DLE 35RA arrived today in perfect condition. Included in the box was a brand new Bowman ring for said little jewel. Thanks VVRC, you guys still top shelf. I broke out the little 35 and removed the cylinder and replaced...

    Top Flite RTC Giant Scale P40/Roto 85 FSI

    A little progress on the RTC Giant P40 fellas. Due to the Thanksgiving weekend, I got off work Wednesday around 2:30 and don't have to be back to work until Monday morning. Know what that means right? YEAH BABY! I spent most of yesterday while the girls were preparing a feast for a king (or...

    Well gents, it has been a couple of days since we updated the Roto85 powered TF P40. Sooo….what do you say we do a little posting? I wanted to get the Roto 85fsi mounted so that I could start the glassing process. And actually though it required a little thought process and planning, thanks to...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    And get this.... that wing is not full length yet. I still have to add the two balsa blocks to the ends of each wing tip. Add another 6". Now "THAT"...is BEHEMOTH!!! LOL

    So put a gasser in her. She will do really great with an RCGF 20cc or a DLE 20cc. Both are great running motors. If you want a deal on a brand new RCGF 20, let me know. I'll make you a real awesome deal. And then you can fly that P40 for pennies on the dollar.

    Haven't had time to get the video uploaded yet. I spent most of the day completing the top sheeting of the Behemoth Stang wing. I have put it to the side for a few days. I want to get a start on the newest project in the Epley hangar. Take a look at this beauty fellas...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    I wanted to go flying today. Thought I would take the FMS Mustang out for a couple of sorties. Weather was plenty warm and little to know wind. About 60 degrees. For November, that is pretty warm. But as much as I wanted to go flying, I wanted to get the top of the Behemoth Stang wing sheeted so...

    I picked up from Tower. I have a brand new ARF P40 just like this. Was going to put the Roto on it. But, well I want my own scheme and I wanted to paint it, so I picked up the RTC for this project. Coincidentally, the brand new ARF is for sale or trade. Because I got it fairly cheap, I thought I...
