Mustang

This beast may be small, but it is deadly fast in the air. Straight and level it will hit nearly 90 mph. Fitted only with a 30 year old Magnum 25 and a tuned pipe. But despite the engines age, this combo will still turn a 9"X6" prop at 14,700 rpm! This makes for exciting flying. Low passes, big loops and fast rolls. It used be blue and silver, then it turned into pylon racer Dago Red for a couple of years. and now it looks like this.

   The Mustang you see here consists of a new wing and ailerons, new tail plane and elevators and a new fin...oh, and about half a tub of polyfilla on the fuselage. It also has a new canopy (which arrived in the post the day after it was ordered (first class service from Cambrian Models!)).  This is because of what happened to it when it had an argument with a limbo pole in Jersey.

It has the same engine and tuned pipe combination as before, but now it is being run on 15% nitro fuel that little bit of extra zoom. How does it fly? Well, it's pretty much the same as before, except is slightly slower due the extra weight put on by repairing the fuz, and a slightly thicker wing section.

Looks neat doesn't it.
