Well got my new toy today and its ready to take the sky in search for the Zero's.
Its the Parkzone F4F Wildcat PNP, real nice looking plane, did a bit of weathering and panel line darkening and some painting but I will do more after I see how it handles.

Maiden tomorow friday I hope :D

That is so cool Paul,

I was suprise to hear this news this week with Paul.
But not suprise that Paul got him self a great Wildone cat to
dog fight with those Emperial Zero's in the sky over Pacific,, okay ,,
over MRCC ... lol ...

Now I'll feel secure with my Mitchell to be well escorted while on bomber missions over Japan by next year ...

Wow! long day at MRCC Club 13 hrs :D
Got there at 7:30 am and the wind was already blowing moderatly but I was there to fly and I did just that. :D
The Wildcat first day 90 min flying time in 12 flights.
First flight with the TP1350 MAh LiPo flew very well.
All the other flights were done using TP 2100 15c 3s1p lipo's.
The 2100 were simply the best started flying at 6 min flights and the last one was 11 min. The Lipo took in only 925 mah , after the flight nothing was hot not even warm to touch.
In the very strong and gusty wind it flew very well and then at the end of the day it was dead calm and I was able to do the trim and all it took is a couple right click on the ailerons.
I'm waitting on the 3 blade prop to try it too.
My impression on this Parkzone F4F Wildcat, all I can say is Wow! a pure pleasure to fly flight after flight :D

Here are a few beautiful pictures Taken by Lamahorse and I also have a couple short video clips but not edited yet.
I hope they release a Zero too :D

It was such,
a nice day out yesterday with buddy Paul ...

While I arrived at the club Paul was already set up for the kill.
yea, I could see the Emperial Zero's killer in his eyes ... lol ...

Wind was kind of creazy on the AM window time. But around 16hoo hours the wind started to die dowm and it was time see this beefy fighter do what he does best ,,, kill Zero's ... I could hear the Wing Commander calling ,,,
Zero's inbound and approaching. As soon as I was hearing the call,, Paul was already out on the runway to lauch the F4F Wildcat and to intercept those Zero's that were all over the place.

Okay,okay,,, I'll get my feet back on the ground,,, but what a amazing flying WWII fighter and for the price you can't go ron and for the powerplant and flying time you'll be suprise how this Wildcat can make you a ACE in one out sortie mission. Don't beleive me? ,,, well give Pete At Ted's a call to order one and you'll see what I was talking about ...

Paul ,,, you amaze me yesterday with this wonderfull flying WWII Zero's killer machine ... Thanks for the invite to be spending the hole day with yea and the Wild one Cat !!! :D

Will have to do that again very soon ...
