P-51D 1/4 Scale Short Kit by HOLK RC

The North American P-51 Mustang is a long range, single seat fighter and fighter bomber used during World War II and the Korean war amongst others. It is one of the most recognosable aircraft of World War II. It was designed in April 1940 and first flew on 26th October 1940. 
 
The HOLK RC P-51D Mustang is 1/4 Scale (25%). We have taken great care to make this as scale as possible and have used numerous blue print and original plans to try to get the most scale P-51 we can. The short kit consists of a complete set of laser cut balsa and plywood formers and ribs which will enable to construction of this model.  The engine cowl is built up with an upper and lower cowl meaning easy access to motor, fuel tank or batteries. There are two models available for this aircraft with a gas version and an electric version. The HOLK RC P-51D Mustang is built over a jig where the formers are placed to ensure the correct angle and spacing. By doing this it makes the construction extremely simple and it is very fast to construct the basic frame of the aircraft.   The P-51D features a plug togther wing and plug in horizontal stabs.  The basic structures use conventional “modeling” tools and materials such as balsa and plywood, and the techniques are straight forward; easily accomplished by anyone with previous model building experience.
