You are probably thinking, "what's so special about that?"

Well this 1/96 scale P-51D Mustang is 8 channel, including navigation lights, machine gun lights and working retracts….!!

Does it actually fly?? No idea but I would assume so seeing as how he has built a flying 1/100 scale Spitfire…

He says in the notes that it does when it feels like it, but is a less than consistent performer….

Two blades on the prop – not a Mustang expert, but that doesn't seem right, so would conclude there's a reason for it… as in, yes, it must be a flying model.

If you watch the video through to the end, he says it was initially very twitchy but as he made changes (and a progressively bigger motor) it actually ended up flying quite well. The spitfire buzzes around like a small bird trapped inside a hall

That's disturbingly tempting to get for CAS in Flames of War.

If you can fly the plane over the table and drop something on target, your attack hit! evil grin
