Can I have a go Dave :)

There is a nice looking 83" Topflite P47 Thunderbolt for sale on High Alpha all complete (excluding rx) for £450 ono with a Magnum 46cc in it, looks like a bargain if it is as nice in the flesh.

You will always have a go, always need to see it flown properly :)

But I don't like p47s unfortunately, I think it's probably the only warbird I wouldn't have, bit of a coincidence to be fair u pointed that out lol. But thanks.

Hey Dave, I didn't like the P47 'till I bought one. I've now changed my mind. It has a lot of advantages. Wide track u/c, inward retract, radial cowl,hide most of the motor, thick-ish wing section for good flight envelope, A number of them available - Hanger 9, Black Horse etc.
Good luck with search, but, when are you coming to the field?

Stuart

Ok so it's not a 50cc but I've always liked this model and now I have one :)

It's a black horse stuka, just gotta decide what engine to put in it,
Thinking 91 2 stroke, 120 fourstroke or DLE 20cc

Anyone have anything similar to sell?

And yes Jon you can maiden it for me and dive bomb it :)
