Wing B-25
Memphisbelle I just completed building my Wing B-25 And I put Mag. 52 fourstrokers on it haven't flown it yet waiting for spring. Will take it to the sod farm up in Davenport. I really feal that the 52s should handle it quite well for how I want to fly it. Basically up and into a flight pattern and then a low pass with bay doors open and then close and extend gear and land. Don't have any plans on doing any whoop-di doo stuff just fly her and then land should last quite a while this way also have developed my own mechanical brake system and aircooler fins that work with the throttle

Wing B-25
NCHROME, How far do the rocker covers stick out of the side of the cowl. What size prop are you planning on using? Did you build it with out any changes from the plans? How did you cover it and how much does it weight? I seem to build heavy, everything seems to be 2 to 3 puonds over weight. I guess its because I glass and paint everything. Idon't want it to fly to fast and not have a scale look. I chose this kit because its approx size is 1/9th scale to go along with my 1/9th scale B-17 from don smith. Ithink I can get my brother to fly the B-25 along side my B-17 for some impressive flybys. thanks for eveyone's input.
