P-40 Warhawk?

[Q3001]

Does anyone have plans for a P-40 Warhawk? Preferably in the mighty mini size...

It's one of my all time favourite planes. I've built a few FT planes now, but don't quite have the skill to design one myself.
Maybe it'd be easy to modify an existing design (like a spitfire), but again, I just don't know where to start.

Thanks!

and I'm sorry but I know of none here on the forums or for that matter anywhere sorry,

Check out Fly'n Foam RC on facebook . The name use to be Beyond the wheel RC, but due to health problems Tim had to shut down the site for a while. Tim is in the process of starting a new website, so we will be able to purchase the plans again. According to to the facebook page Tim is designing plans for other planes that will be avalible on the new site . I highly recommended his builds great designs with great instructions!



Here's a picture of the P-40 I'm building from Tim's plans. He calls it the 2 dollar tiger because it's built from only two sheets of DTF. It has a 35" wing span which is a bit bigger than the mini's but I believe flys more stable and still transports very well too and from the flying field.

Had one of these puppies. Flew well but had a very narrow CG point.

I tried making one ,looked great but the CoG was a nightmare to dial in for some reason,unfortunately the plane didn't last long enough to get a proper flight so I snowballed the project for the time being.
Some pics......

Scottie! That P-40 looks great hope you give it another go! That is a great design you made with lots of scale details.

Cost of plans?

If you check out a couple of the recient FT videos, you can see one in the background. Seems they do this to tease us before a new release.

Price is $2 from Fly'n Foam RC. Be prepared to spend more! He has a bunch of cool plane designs. flynfoamrc.com

Well, for $2 you can't go wrong!

And THANKS... I clicked on the link and he's featuring the Do335 one of my top 10 favorite aircraft!!...
(Now I've added ANOTHER plane to my build list!!)

This really never ends does it... there's ALWAYS going to be "that next plane to build."....

I found some plans on here for free and built one. First 2 flights ended in disaster because I later found out that the prop was too small(9x6, I used a 10x8). After rebuilding the whole nose(it was crushed), and a new power pod, it took off perfectly!

Here's a mighty mini I designed. Check it out and see if ya like it! Free plans are available and I also tried my hand at free skins. Also, Stephen Rosema, the master of skins (Rasterize) created four awesome skins for the design:
