I think it is light for a warbird I use flaps on landing .It’s my favorite plane to fly !

I have 3 p-47’s one hangar 9 20cc ,a seagull with a dle 55ra and a top flite with a dle 65 all are great flyers , probably my favorite warbird to fly

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Nice, thankio

Thanks David . That is a seagull fw190 from gator RC I painted it with Rustoleum airbrushed the panel lines and weathering and new graphics from Callie Graffics

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Thankio

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Is the 20cc? seagull fw190 ,thankio

@@angeladavid100 no the 20cc is a Phoenix models it flys great ! The seagull has a dle55 in it

@@michaelchamberlain7855 ok, i understand, thank you very much and good flights, hug

Dle 20 ra

Yes it came from xyz hobbies on eBay

What prop are you using???

Thank you I’m going to maiden a seagull 80” next week I’ll post a video

I used the 81 degree eflites made for the hangar 9 me109

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Thanks, I measured the angle of the retracts drawing in the owners manual and it is exactly 81 degrees. That sounds right to me too.

Wheel wells are just big enough for the supplied wheels ,I’ve landed in grass with no problem but they keep it short at LMAC

I put 4inch tires in mine. No prob. As far as nosing over on takeoff and landings. Yes it will certainly nose in on grass. I would suggest mounting washers on the back side of the landing gear mounts to push the wheels forward more. Every MM counts and makes a huge difference

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Thanks Michael, what is LMAC? Thanks Brian, That sounds like a great idea. Has that worked for you?

@@procorreviews4512 LMAC is Lexington Model Airplane Club Lexington Ky

Thank you

Thank you

The 20cc A6M Zero shown in your video has a black streaked weathered looking appearance. Was this an early preproduction model? The current airplane as shown on Tower's web site has a bright unweathered finish.

If we only had some good weather I would fly it . Martin there are 2 zeros on tower’s website this one is the 67’” wingspan the bright unweathered finish is smaller

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Did you get yours from Tower? I asked them if the 67" was weathered or as depicted in the picture on their web site. They replied that the finish is without the dark weathered effect and as shown in the picture of the model on their website.

Yes mine came from tower . It was in the first shipment.

@@michaelchamberlain7855 Yours' looks nice with the weathering but I'm thinking that they changed later covering finish to panel lines and rivets without the weathering as the 67" on Towers web page and the Phoenix web site show the model without the darkened streaked weathering effect. Anyway, good luck with the maiden flight.

Terry Foster it flys great I have a couple of things I don’t like about it .the covering looks great with all of the detail but it doesn’t stay stuck down I think it will eventually come off . The supplied retracts are difficult to get adjusted so I opted for eflite . I ordered the spinner I’m using from eBay the one supplied is plastic 2 blade .and the pilot that comes in it looks awful . Thank you for watching

Thanks!!

83Irvine it’s hard to be accurate Now that it’s on the plane but estimate 8” x 8-1/2” tall thanks

Horror Gamer I didn’t use the included retracts .I opted for eflite 81 degree retracts intended for the hangar 9 bf109 ,and modified the struts that came with the kit they were the problem , a set screw in the end hit the actuator causing them to hang up . I ordered some different struts and they are working good now thanks for watching

@@warbirdbrothers1739 Very good I am glad you did not wreck it lol I bought this one after seeing your video along with several other PM models....have you ever worked with Seagull ARF's? looking at them and was wondering w3hat your opinion was.

Horror Gamer I have not tried any of the seagull models yet .I do like the Wicked Wabbit so that might be my first .I have also been looking at the blackhorse 102” FW190 k

​@@warbirdbrothers1739Did you ever finish the Blackhorse? I saw the review video, comments are turned off.

Horror Gamer thank you We have plenty more to come
