I am i the process of building a P-38 from scratch. It has been a long road to this point. It has been fun and frustrating at the same time. I haven't worked on it for a while but here are some pics of what I have. Let me know what you think. It has a 5 foot wing span. Thats 1/10 scale. Im powering it with 2 saito 45 4-strokes turning 12in. 3 blade props. haven't tested the power plants for effectivness yet so they might change or the props might change.

hey that's looking good:)
The p-38 is one of my favorite airplanes I've been toying with the idea of building one.
Mike Molt's parkflyer one or a Guillow's one with a pair of norvel's in it or maybe just go for broke and do the Ziroli one.
Gotta dream big.
Anyway your's is looking good
