Hello, Mike! I have flown the older version of the eflite P-47, the original Parkzone one. It is nearly identical to the eflite minus the AS3X and 4 blade. It is an excellent flyer, and I think you will love it, and it is a great step up from the DTFB models. It has a large and forgiving flight envelope, and is a very relaxing warbird to fly. The AS3X will make a nice addition for flying it in wind as well. I loved mine so much, I completely rebuilt it to handle 4S, detailed cockpit, gear doors, and a tail retract.
