I got two foamie Muzzies from the same place, Pete and same maker. FMS? One is Red (Century UK) and the other is the Gunfighter version.(FMS). Taking off needs decent ground speed at least, landing not a an issue except for the crap retracts. Plastic swivel pins!

Replaced mine with E-Flites. See my article on the Dago Red Mustang. CG is a bit touchy too. Had to ignore the manual recomms and work it out myself.

The retract unit's will be fine as they are all metal! the weak link on this model will be the scale oleo legs which are quite flimsy.Depending on how well it fly's i might swap them for something stronger.
As for the c of g i must agree! Iv had to put a rake of lead in the nose to get it any where near a safe position for a test flight :(quite normal though with a ww2 fighter with it's very short nose.
