Mock Radial For Master Series P47

[ZOHIO]

the plan that i see under this good looking bad boys looks nice too ^^
i'm 99% sure it's a b25 from ziroli, but i only saw the plan, where is the plane ?

Haha, the plane is still under construction! Here are a few teaser pics:

Okay we decided to add guns as just a little extra detail before it’s re-maiden.

Both the P-47 and the B-25 look amazing, great job

Guns make a lot of stuff more fun lol. You definitely did my favorite plane justice! This build rocks, especially with the little details like rivets! Nice work.

Weather around here has been pretty spotty recently, we’re trying to get out in the next day or two.

So we took the P47 out yesterday for it’s remaiden. The plane still flew amazing! We did notice a very slight rattling during the flight and upon further inspection we noticed that the mock radial had actually came loose and was making slight contact with the motor. The planes performance was not affected due to this but it is definitely a problem that needs fixed. The most incredible part of the flight.... the bombs worked! The bomb rack and mechanism worked flawlessly! We will try to get out again here soon to get some better video and possibly try to get the drop on video.

Looks great. I just built the P47. My first master series build. Before I take it out for its maiden flight tomorrow wanted to confirm on the CG. The plan says 1.75” from LE, but in the build video they say 1” from LE. What is the correct CG for the FT Master Series P47 Razorback. The AUW is 950gms.

I do apologize as i do not remeber the exact CG and i am away at school so i am unable to measure it. However, i tried to build it around the CG marking on the plans themselves. Even with the radial, hub, and electronics pushed forward, we still needed to add a bit of weight to the front of the plane in order for it to balance properly. The plane is still slightly tail heavy, however it is just barely. I hope all goes Well!

That’s great so if it’s as per the plan then it’s approx 1.75” from LE. I do need add some weight up front to get it balance at this point. That’s why I was concerned if I had to balance with CG at 1” I would need to add substantial weight up front.

I shall post an update once I have the maiden flight.

Wonderfull silver finish!!. Congratulations.

Looking Forward to it!

Thanks for the steer on the CG. Had a successful maiden flight. The specs that I had on the plane were: FT Radial 1070 motor, 40amp ESC, 3S 3200mah battery and a 10 X 5 Prop.

Here is a link of the maidenflight.

(apologies for the few parts that are out of focus, blame it on a white plane with white clouds)

Really happy with the way the plane flew and as my 1st master series build quite proud of the end result.

Now going to spend sometime painting the plane.

That flew awesome!!

That flew awesome!!

Thank you. It flew even better with a 4S battery.

A query, how do you guys normally capture the flight videos? I'm planning on getting an Action Camera such as a GoPro. Does that work for videotaping the flight? The video I uploaded was taken on a friends iPhone, so was a bit of a challenge.
