Awesome flight love the mustang nothing like it in the air

[@FelipeCerdaBarra]

amazing! what a sound!

[@DadsRCHangar]

Very nice, Stuart was right when he said about the noise, that prop bark was orsum. 👍🏻

[@reckemroysrc3764]

Beautiful mustang Stewart. Would love to see the conversion video. I've got some old nitro birds I want to convert to electric. It would be nice to see Stewart's method 😊

[@johnyp51]

A beautiful plane with a great painting job of the Polish pilot Witold "Tolo" Lokuciewski. thanks for that 🫡

[@Hawkertempest1]

Best sounding electric P51-D I have ever heard. Very impressive model.👍👍👍

[@EssentialRC]

Couldn't agree more!

[@JDDupuy]

Alright mate give her go! Cheerio! Loved the video...great stuff! Thanks.....

[@EssentialRC]

Thanks 👍

[@helischorsch9786]

👍great P-51D, impressive sound for electric 😎

[@sophiejaysstuff4026]

Please list the kit details and components used.

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

That landing. Straight out of Battle of Britain.

[@JP-ij6gf]

Impressive

[@blackbirdboy1]

Sounds mint for an electric

[@rcdavidk]

It's 2024. If anyone feels they need to prove the power, effectiveness, and longevity of electric to the fuel guys, then it's a losing proposition... and... it doesn't matter. I recently watched a video with RamyRC, Tyler Perry, and Cleetus McFarlane where Cleetus was trying to start a fuel plane. The comment from off camera was "if it was electric we'd be flying by now". RamyRC built that giant C-17 all electric.

[@EssentialRC]

Pros and cons of both and we can all fly both. One isn't better than the other really.

[@lowellfunk8974]

Just because someone can't start a nitro engine doesn't mean electric is better! Just means they're not that experienced with nitro! You can listen to all the advice in the world, but once you start trying it yourself is when you really learn! And if you don't have the patience to make mistakes, you still won't learn. 😢

[@bigeclipse718]

All my gas engines start with a couple flips. No doubt electrics are just as powerful if not more, fact is you won't get 10 min+ flight times yet and you don't get the sound of a gas engine

[@RC-Flight]

Do the turnigy electric motors still throw magnets? I have had three of the Turnagy motors and two of them threw the magnets. I guess the epoxy that they use on their motors to hold the magnets is not very good or maybe it where they are made?😢😕

[@EssentialRC]

Or folks over-amp and over-temp them so they break. I've not had a motor throw a magnet in the last 15 years and I mostly fly electric

[@RC-Flight]

@@EssentialRC Ok so then I need to derate what Hobby King says to use for cell count and propeller size? I use their stated specs and usually stay a couple of pitches lower.

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

Very nice but what's the cost of those Lipos 2x 6s 6200 for a 6 minute flight!!! Give me Glow or gas anytime.

[@EssentialRC]

So many flying clubs now where noise is an issue and this is best option

[@stevearmett1565]

70 dollars each on Hobbyking so 140 dollars for one flight !! If you get 2 lots 240 dollars 🙈

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

@@EssentialRC cost would be a real factor for me so not really an option.

[@reckemroysrc3764]

Nitro fuel is 60 dollars a gallon and not rechargeable. And your not tuning an electric motor. They just run perfectly every time. I prefer that

[@MarkCroucherRC4fun]

@@reckemroysrc3764 each to their own I fly both but once you move into 6s the price gets silly I can have 6 flights in a section 10 minutes plus if I wish, how much would that cost in lipos?

[@mateuscalegaro7967]

👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@jimjasper9851]

Awesome?

[@EssentialRC]

Yup. 100% awesome.

[@captainaxle438]

Actually that much prop noise indicates inefficient prop selection. Yes electrics allow you to hear prop noise but this one is so loud you could hear it on gas or nitro engine. Not impressive. Install a speed reader, use a watt meter and find the optimal propeller, this one is not it

[@EssentialRC]

Maybe we like the noise 🤔

[@captainaxle438]

@@EssentialRC non sequitur

[@stevearmett1565]

Sounds good for an electric that does and plenty of power but you can't beat a 4 stroke petrol in those sorry you just can't

[@stevep4131]

Can't beat a 4 stroke in a warbird? Maybe not for you but definitely for me. Wet fuel engines mess up the lines with external cylinder heads and exhausts. And anything but the largest 4 strokes can sound like demented wasps in the air. But each to his own!

[@EssentialRC]

A lot of flying sites in England are noise sensitive so this would be best option

[@HobbyRc2.2]

3 min flight :(

[@EssentialRC]

Yes. Limited by the show. Was a split slot.
