Top Flight P-47 ARF

OK, so I sent off an E-mail to the Torqpro factory since I got this engine factory direct to test. I asked about the "muffler" that they said was included and sent a picture of the header. They sent their apologies and said the muffler would be shipped to me, the warehouse forgot it. They will ship it "after" their new years celebration:(

So now I guess I work on the rest of the plane and wait for a month for the muffler that I don't even know if I will be able to use or not. I may still get some materials and fab a muffler from this can, I will just wait to cut the header in any way until I get their muffler.

I've already been called FOG by all my local guy's.

Actually, consider the P-47 a stealthy, "One of THOSE guys", cloaking device. When you go to an unknown field, pull the warturd out FIRST and make a couple of scale flights, it is MUCH easier to make friends with the local FOGS that way. Once you have made nice, THEN proceed to pull out your BADASS Viper and throw down!

This technique WORKS! It has been proven over and over again (just ask Ken!).

Regards,

Astro

This also works if you pull out a 1/3 WM Cub with a 3W106 on the front. The FOGS love when you take off slow and fly around scale like. Then you turn on the smoke and do some spins/3D with it!

That would work at my field as well. Unless you got a helicopter out after the 3D airplane then the torches get lit and the pitchforks sharpened.

That would be nice wouldn't it. Probably not going to happen, buy hey, it's nice to think so.
We have a pretty good mix, 100cc Cardens to E-flite foamies. Circle fliers to hard core 3D helicopters and everything in between. Great group I fly with.
