P-39 Airacobra Giant Scale -- flight montage video.

Hightlight video of 12/13/2008 flights of my giant scale foamie warbird. This baby has an 84" wingspan, weighs 6 lbs. has 770 kv Monster Power 42 electric motor, Exceed 60 Amp esc, 2200 mah 4s1p lipo battery (about 6-7 minutes flight time) and fixed landing gear (removable for hand launching - haven't tried that yet).

This is my biggest scratch built foamie to date - it's easy to fly (fast & slow), handles excellent, is very durable and simple to repair (foam & tape). Does awesome knife edge too. My rolls need major practice for this plane.

Yay for Giant Scale fan fold foamies! And for the Foo Fighters song, "Learn to Fly" :rolleyes:

Your vid was good and the plane was better! Nice choice of a P-39 over a P-40 or P-51 like everybody else does.
