No, I didn't build this balsa plane from scratch. It's an ARF. So sue me.
Yes, it's electric not nitro. So sue me.
No, it's not Eflite/Axi/Hacker. It uses Hobbywing/SunnySky parts. So sue me.
It flies great. That's all that matters.

Highly recommend this museum. If you love planes, you'll love this place. They have dozens more famous warbirds than the ones pictured below.

Gorgeous P-40N. This new Durafly foam technique looks amazing. You can't tell it's foam it looks so smooth. Runs on 4s 2200mah. Plenty fast. High wingloading but it looks fantastic in the air.

Sadly, I crashed my 3DHS Edge last week. Since it was my first 3DHS plane and it gave me over 2 years of fun, I thought it deserved a little more respect than just a toss in the bin.
Flys like on rails.
