Electric P-51 Mustang

Description: Easy-to-build backyard flighter

Designed by Nick Ziroli Sr., this electric Mustang can also be powered by a .15 to .25 glow engine. You can also build it with or without landing gear, and the canopy and decals are available from House of Balsa. The model has traditional balsa-and-plywood construction and can be built with built-up or solid-sheet tail surfaces. The portion of the fuselage between the spinner and the front of the canopy forms the main hatch for easy replacement of the power battery pack.
