[@turbonetic777]

She sounds, looks and flies beautifully!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@allgood6760]

Nice!... 40+ years ago I put pencil to paper for an RC P51D and that was as far as I got... we flew P51 Mustangs with our RNZAF... 👍🇳🇿

[@tbobborap1]

Very cool!

[@RC-Flight]

Oh I thought it was going to be a petrol engine powered aircraft. Disappointed. Nice looking plane just sounds bad. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

[@tbobborap1]

Thanks for watching!

[@timmytyler3698]

Wow! That's really something! Love the Sound!!

[@RCHeliJet]

Very nice Video and Model.

[@didierneeferc]

Sounds like a turbo prop haha nice!

[@cameronyoung6769]

I love the old prop fighters. I would love to have an actual engine from one of these planes.

[@dustinlastinger]

Sure would be nice to see how he did the conversion

[@luismiguelsilva2570]

Parabens a quem filmou. Achei graça ao trem de aterragem.

[@therogersboi5223]

This is my all time favorite airplane besides the B-17 Flying Fortress

[@baytacoglu]

It sounds like a turboprop mustang however flies great. Lol one needs a generator in such a big machine to keep it flying. Great video PETE

[@Robert-mn8gc]

Xcellent. Is that the P51D whistle ? 😅 Gr8 Job

[@jimgroves7981]

Awesome Bird! I want one but I'm going to cut my teeth on the 20cc first but make it electric. As far as the electric goes, the hobby and industry itself has made monumental leaps in making this hobby more fun and more affordable. A gas or nitro engine sounds no more like a "Mustang" than an electric set up just a little louder. If you want it to sound like a real Merlin put in a sound card. I've heard them and they're unbelievable but hey, that's just me... :)

[@tbobborap1]

yes jim ep the future for sure

[@robertbaker50]

Looking to buy one but with a 60cc engine. I just started flying, always wanted to. I got 2 others now.

[@Joe-ux3ul]

Thanks for this video..i was just given one this size.i will have to put engine in and I think I want to go with metal gear servo's.don't know if I should keep it gas or go electric.look king foward to flying again.at one point I had 27 flying aircraft.house fire destroyed it all

[@locowerke]

Awesome machine! Thanks Pete. Cheers, Dougal

[@terrysimpson1893]

Where did you get the spinner for the four blade prop?...from Biela? Did you have to paint it yourself, or can it be ordered with that matching paint scheme? Looks great!

[@tbobborap1]

sorry terry ive no info on her

[@garygullikson6349]

Why did pilot always pull up so hard when turning?

[@IanEvans2309]

Wait is this Electric?? When I saw 60cc I thought it had a petrol engine, that aside really great looking model 😍

[@warrentodd4848]

Great model, nice to see large electrics are becoming more and more popular.

[@ROTAXD]

Todd Warren the fact that folks are putting electrics in planes like that is nothing short of a travesty.

[@vontressler1]

but does it sound right?

[@nanaboli]

Fullthrottle Turnnburn Hace 1 año What a waste...battery power in such a beautiful plane

[@robepley2709]

Nice plane. Can't say I care much for the 'lectric electron burner up front. But to each his own. One thing I might respectfully interject however. The reason she yanked so hard to the left when you were into your take off roll out is no right rudder input to offset the thrust of the motor. About half on beginning of roll out....maybe more since you are using an electric motor. Ease out of the rudder as she builds ground speed. Once airborne, you will be able to neutral out completely on the rudder. Just trying to help ya out.

[@leonelmolinajr2]

I'm wondering how easy it is to do the conversion?

[@tbobborap1]

not too hard as its designed for both petrol or IC as far as i know, depends on your building experience i guess

[@stevenunderwood.]

What size 4 blade prop is that. Many thanks

[@tbobborap1]

ive no info on the prop im afraid steve

[@terrysimpson1893]

Where can I get a four blade spinner for my Hangar 9 P-51D ARF?

[@andre-dx4yw]

i just ordered the 20cc version, gonna fly electric as all my planes are. i couldnt get a power 60[eflite] so i went for a ripmax .61 410kv on 6s do you think that will be ok? cheers great channel

[@tbobborap1]

thanks andre, not sure on your set up im afraid andre, im not clued up with electrics !

[@andre-dx4yw]

@@tbobborap1 ok well thanks for the reply mate. i think with right prop choice should be fine, maybe ill bring it down for you to maiden for me, i reckon im just along the coast from you.

[@terrysimpson1893]

Where did you get the under side cowling that does not have the gap for the gas engine? Would like to get one for my own electric conversion. Thanks.

[@edspencer7121]

Very impressive! On a lesser note, how'd the after flight clean up go on the fuselage?......😁😁👻👻

[@dalimilkoutek6360]

A huge advantage of flying electric - there is no cleaning after the flight of oil. I'm old enough to remember that cleansing - Sisyphean work.

[@gregpavitt309]

Nice P-51 would be great if it had a soundboard

[@philkennedy1105]

Brill plane nice vid would be nice with sound system in 👍👍

[@terrysimpson1893]

The original Hangar 9 P51D ARF comes with a two blade prop. I am getting ready to order one. How do I get one set up with a 4 blade prop? Thanks for your advice.

[@jimcarter8489]

hi it looks great and sounds great wear did you get this please

Why would you go eletric in something that pretty much was a fuel bird in ww2 what disgrace

[@matthewselby5237]

How much did the plane cost including everything I'm interested in starting a project and where would be best place to start

[@FACrazyCanuck]

Thanks for posting, nice vid and nice P-51. Have you considered a pilot figure in the pit?

SIMPLY AWESOME.........................

[@goofball3236]

gorgeous

[@tbobborap1]

thanks

[@jolujo5842]

What a beauty! 😀

[@jamesbailey5008]

Question, most petrol engined planes I've seen have two blade props, something to do with torque / power but this has four with an electric engine which I assured less powerful.. why?

[@hobietacker]

I fly all electric but not this big. We fly the 4 blade prop because it looks awesome. I know I can go faster with a 2 blade prop but a P-51 Is a Majestic plane .

he should keep clear of the prop when connecting the batteries up

+Jeremy Saunders I guess you never heard a real one. Cool, but not scale.

[@jeremysaunders9916]

Hence ? Smarty pants.

[@clutchpedalreturnsprg7710]

Hello, " The Ballistic Beak " is the wrong name for this plane. It should be " Glamorous Glennis II ".

[@tbobborap1]

your wrong, its a nick name for the owner who`s flying it

[@coryboy345]

That is a beautiful plane, but like others have said, the electric just doesn't do it for me. Awesome aircraft either way.

[@jonathanoxlade4252]

Electric ruins it I don’t care if that electric is more powerful lol I have a gas rc car coming and I don’t like esc fires ok 👌 so no to electric and this is a war bird not a fucking farting electric sound machine

[@jayfmiller]

Well done video and nice first flight. However, P-51 motive power that sounds like a Tesla rather than a Merlin is just wrong.

[@johnmarksmith1120]

Why don’t you build one and show him exactly how it should sound?

[@iflick7235]

Great plane, wrong engine. Sounds like an electric pencil sharpener.

[@hochspannunglebensgefahr5339]

John Mark Smith that’s not his job. As the viewer and not the creator, it is his job to share his opinion and give the creator tips on how to improve on the subject of the video. I fucking hate people who say “yOu ThInK yOu CaN dO bEtTeR?” Like just shut the fuck up already ok?

+tbobborap1 That's the plan!

[@tbobborap1]

youll get there m8, but it will be a bloody expensive journey before you get there - lol - pete

[@gshoaf1]

I thought it sounded pretty good. Just as good as a single cylinder thumper. What motor and battery setup are you using.

[@ColeAviation]

Beautiful war bird! Always loved a P51! Great job behind the camera there Bob! 👍🏼 Are you gonna get to come over to Joe Nall this year?

[@sahiljassal1983]

Nice plane bro.... Buy link please

[@tbobborap1]

thanks sahil - but no idea

[@johnstevens9732]

Beautiful plane. It flies great but sounds like a big insect buzzing around my head. There should be a law against putting electric motors in a war bird. My God man! Put a DA/DLE or a Kolm in it and make it sound right.

[@petercoxon6977]

whatever floats your boat john !

[@thanman11]

have you guys heard a Moki ??? sounds pretty friggin amazing

[@grammophonecat]

You are kidding right? Clearly you are trolling here... moki, especially the radials sound amazing and very realistic. As for the Inline 4 stroke Kolms, they also sound perfect in a Warbird.

[@grammophonecat]

Well in that case you need a scale Merlin Engine. If it must be 100 % realistic. There are several in existence but the power to weight hasn't been achieved yet to fly/fly properly.

[@trentpinyan4970]

LMAO Im crying laughing reading these comments!

[@dixiedog1179]

That's a pretty plane.

[@TheWindbender]

It is just as important to know whom to avoid. Thanks a bunch.

[@mikew3232]

Just need to wait another week for all those lipos to charge before the next flight.

[@christopherknee5756]

Five minutes of flying time? Electrics - what a waste of time and not cheap.

Realy? Electric Motor?!!!!

[@shreddinjoe]

Hi Friend...Hey, Im about to purchase this plane..and would like to pick your brain a bit about it if you dont mind. Of course its a large investment, (well, in my case it is)..so Id like to get all the info/research possible before I make that dive..Please message back..Thanks in advance

[@craigbone9231]

very very nice.

[@tomsisson660]

It sounds and looks like it is powered by electricity and an electric motor. You said 60cc. That indicates it would be powered by a 60cc gas motor.

[@tbobborap1]

read the video information

[@RustySh4ckleford]

2 x 6S 5000 = 12S 5000. the cells add in series. capacity adds in parallel :)

[@RustySh4ckleford]

I see u mention again there is 4× 6s 5000. so you have 2x2 in series then parallel for 12s 5000! cool!!!!

[@GaryBaird.Photography]

Now somebody needs to come up with a smoke system for these electrics and all would be perfect.

thanks gary

[@pauld5530]

Electric huh. I'm like a cat with someone trying to pet my hair backwards. I kinda like it but at the same time it's ruffling my coat. 😜 wonder if it's the prop that's causing the loud air swishing sound?

What a waste...battery power in such a beautiful plane.

I have mixed emotions about gas.i like being able to restart after coasting but nothing like the sound of gas engine

Glad i watched this.think i will keep my new one gas..i was given one this size

[@jeremyjohn8199]

Cmon put those rolls Royce merlin engines in them!!! ;)

[@airmuseum]

I fly "real" and "model" Mustangs. These fellows work hard to make beautiful, realistic models, but can't fly them for shit. No right rudder on take offs...abrupt and unrealistic control movements spoil what they try so hard to display. Very few nodelers take the time to learn to "fly". They lose so much by not flying "scale."

[@marcducati]

Sounds tu much like a turbo Prop. It be great on a Tucano or PC 9 but not on this

[@nanaboli]

Really electric is very boring for this type of plane. the most interesting thing in a mustang is the noise of the engine. with this I fall asleep aside, you have to wait a week to charge the batteries. good everyone his tastes. what if it is very beautiful.

[@gregson99]

not sure about his batteries but you can charge them in a little over an hour on my plane. Also bring 4-5 batteries and you are golden.

[@karicoreth161]

This plane needs a Kolm Inline engine !

[@syafribinmohamadbasirmoham2228]

What you big problem

[@tbobborap1]

?????????

[@kevinbenford403]

Beautiful plane, only thing that would have made it better is if it was gas. Also can't figure out why people take warbirds off like 3d planes. Scale planes need scale takeoffs especially warbirds.
