Hi Guys, Will this fly with a 2S battery/7.4 volt? Or will I def need 3S? I only have a 2S and it spins up with decent propulsion but dont want to crash first time. Also what is the little hatch for on the underside? I had the battery in there but thought the CG would be too back?
 Stefano 7 points
You can fly on 2s to start It will work then switch to 3s 1000mah you like it even more cg is very important,tail heavy you will crash,nose heavy will fly poorly but will fly.The battery should go under control panel after maybe some foam carving cg is 8 1/2 from tip of spinner .

Esse Aero P-51D ele Sai do chã*o ou pode ser jogado estilo Asa Zagi? Da para usar bateria de 2200 3s 25/ Esc de 50/Motor 2200KV? Alguem do Brasil Ja comprou Chegou corretamente,pagou multa na alfandega?

AMigo, esse aviã*o deve ser lanç*ado pois mã*o possui trem de pouso, até* aterrissa no solo mas em terrenos macios (areia de praia ou gramado), possui um reforç*o para aguentar estas aterrisagens. Aviã*o muito gostoso de pilotar, rá*pido e á*gil nas manobras. O motor que vem nele está* bem dimensionado, a limitaç*ã*o na capacidade da bateria está* relacionado ao espaç*o onde ela será* instalada e o peso total do modelo para voô*.

Hi guys, just took a measurement on the ESC. With a 25/50c 3s 1300 and stock prop it takes 10,xx A on the workbench. In flight it should be a little less. br Oliver
 Ollymann 7 points
Just came back from the maiden. Flys like a beauty! However, the supplied ESC cuts out after 2 or 3 minutes of full speed with a 3s1300 25/50c! if you upgrade to higher Lipos one should consider a better ESC as well!
Ollymann  7 points - 5/8/2013
 
hey Grant, the manual (see files tab) says 8 1/2 - 8 4/3 from the front of the spinner. br Ollymann
 Ollymann 7 points
Actually, if you take the cg from the manual, it does not look right to me! According to the manual it is just behind the leading edge (aprox. 1,5 cm) This seems to be not right - can somebody verify this please. I would hate to find out by flying! *-) thx
 Ollymann 7 points
Somehow the usual rule of 1/3 of the wing does not apply here! The CG is very close to the leading edge! *-)

what is best cg on wing
Ollymann  7 points - 4/18/2013
 
hi guys, is this right: Length: 750mm WingSpan: 610mm or is it the other way around? thx

what would be the fastest motor/esc/prop/battery combo for this plane based on your experience? I don't care much about flight times.

I flew it on the hextronic 24 gram motor and it wasnt as fast but it flew fine and had much less tourque.

Hello, all. I have planes of such size. scope I covered less than meter, from foam. I recommended to correspond to it (Tape Blenderm) to amplify in accident

looking to buy this as my first rc fixed wing - do i need to upgrade esc and if i do could anyone recommend one and recommend batteries - cheers
 Prego 68 points
I don´*t recommend for the first plane, I will recommend a plane like Piper J3 or Cessna, this one is little and some times kind a wild plane.
 SRHaugen 50 points
agree with Prego, this is a little wild bird :)

Bought this plane with 3S 850 mah 25-40C Lipo's. Will this be a problem for the ESC? Just read that 20C is recommended.
 Testoni 11 points
Yes, if your ESC is a 10A (like mine) it will burn eventually. On a 3S 20C the current is already close to the limit.

 Robachan 1099 points
Just don't use full throttle all the time and you should be fine. The extra 5C of the battery isn't going to make a big difference. If the ESC is going to fry, it probably will regardless of the C rating of the battery. Better thing to do is find a way to get more cooling airflow to the ESC.
michael  2 points - 1/16/2013
 
How long the flying time duration and the maximum if upgraded.
 Prego 68 points
I flow mine today, I took more than 10m with the stock eletrics, just change the original prop for one SF7x6", the original is unbalanced.
Dunus  9 points - 12/10/2012
 
I always wanted to tell HobbyKing to amend this: The wingspan is actually 750mm and the length of the plane is 610mm. Hope HobbyKing can change it in the specifications...

I need spare fuselage and main wing! :) Does anybody knows Where I can take it? May be only fuselage... Help please.
 Dan O. 408 points
Planes as cheap as this normally do not come or have spare parts, as it's probably cheaper to just buy the whole plane again
 Elven Archer 12 points
I've bought already one more. Now I have a lot of spares :)
 Dan O. 408 points
Yeah that works :) have fun!
 SRHaugen 50 points
I have a unused main wing, tail wing and 3 canopys I can give away, if you pay postage, but sending from Norway is quite expensive, approx. $ 60.00 I have to pack and weigh it first to get an exact price on postage.
 Elven Archer 12 points
Thank You so much, but I've bought another one already.
 Neilan 5 points
The reason it is stuttering is probably because you have burned out the ESC.
DriesRC  285 points - 8/26/2012
 
They say the plane weighs 378g, why does the package weigh 1779g??? the shipping costs make me paying double! How can this be? anyone any experiences?
 SRHaugen 50 points
The plane is packed in a box weighing about 1.2 kg, and there are some extra parts, packing tape and plastic.

Hi brains trust :)
I have just been given this plane as a gift (1st flyer) and upon inspection it has a brushed motor (370)with gear set. Also 10A esc (assuming brushed also) and 2.4ghz tx/rx. Any info on what brushless motor to use as replacement much appreciated! also do the brushless versions still use the same "ge****t" housing that this brushed setup is mounted in? This unit came with 9.6v Ni-Mh 350mah battery so mustve been "old stock" from elsewhere. thanks for any info!
 William 15 points
If you still care after 4 www.link I would go with this motor. Lots of grunt to have fun and get you out of a sticky situation of need be. Prop as said on the motor page (7x4 to 7x6) or something similar. Probably good to get a 20 or even 30 amp brushless esc so it will last long. And last but not least a 3 cell lipo of maybe 1000 to 2200 mah and 20-30c discharge rate. This setup will give you a zippy plane that will pull off some awesome aerobatics and impress the neighbors. If it goes to fast put a smaller prop on and if you want more speed get the 1200kv version and a larger prop. Cheers Will

Hey Guys, First off I love this plane. I upgraded my ESC to a 15A and am running the Turnigy 30-40C 3c 1000mah lipo. Balance is perfect and flight times are 6 to 8 minutes long.Very precise and fast flying. This is my first bottom wing plane and it is awesome!! 18 flights and zero crashes. This thing fly's slow just as well as it does fast. The Canopy has flown off twice. Thought i fixed the issue but it flew off again today and unfortunately I never could find it. Anyone know of a replacement? Was going to see what some local hobby shops would have on hand that would work tomorrow.

Is this basically a hobby king clone of the Parkzone P-51?
 CDCflyer 12 points
No, the PZ 51 is a bit larger. This HK model is nearly identical to the Art-Tech mini P-51. I used their CG measurments and it works out fine.
LukeDuke  2 points - 5/7/2012
 
Does anyone know which replacement propeller is needed? Or a similar one, which produces less torque? (my plane always rolls to the left when throwed in the air)
Thanks in advance!
 Kellyann 16240 points
LukeDuke this is a common problem. Firstly how does it fly?? Once in the air can you trim roll out?? If so it is no prop change will help. When you launch try running motor to speed before you launch. This will reduce the initial torque. I hope this helps

 Astroglider 8 points
Hi, I changed the prop to a folding one (6x45) after I also experienced some difficulty in launching. Now it flies beautifully and the prop won't get broken so easily when I land it.
 Astroglider 8 points
Sorry is HK 8x45 folding prop.

anyone know witch manual for program esc.
 GlebG 140 points
Hi Scott, It's a pity you cant get it working for so many days :( As far as i remember this plane has the following ESC: HobbyKing 10A ESC 1A UBEC Search it on HK, go to the Files tab and get the manual from there. The manual is actually the same for a big range of ESC as they operate basically the same. Btw, if it didn't not work when you switched wires, try just switching other combinations. As the motor does not really care about their order.

 scott 4 points
thanks for all your help. i tried all possible wire combos. the manual you mentioned has different tone patterns then mine. so i bought a new one from my local hobby store. its too bad hobby king service is offline. thanks again
 GlebG 140 points
I presume that you most probably have a defective ESC. Let me know if it all goes well with your new esc from local hobby shop.
 scott 4 points
hi gleb it was the motor and i have replaced it. hopefully be flying this weekend. thanks for everything.

BEWARE This setup draws 11 amps at full throttle and HK have only installed a 10 amp ESC. In the specs it says 20 amp ESC but it is wrong. Most people use the specs to order their gear and HK is consistently getting it wrong. Shame on you HK

The model itself is absolutely gorgeous. I will be changing the ESC obviously as I dont want a pile of foam after my first flight.

i bought this plane over a year ago. it was different kind of set (it had brushed motor), but the plane was pretty much the same. i must say this is an excelent plane, it is stable, it flyes well and it is fast enough. it is perfect for your fist motor plane. and ow that is upgraded with brushless motor it is eaven better. it is a must buy for all mustang lovers.

A great looking mustang. And lets face it, everyone likes the
mustang. This little plane is made from EPS and has been around for
a while but it still fly's great and is fun to keep in the back of
the car for a lunch-time buzz. It's not the strongest little plane
but handles belly landings just fine!
