gret looking airplane!

I bought this plane several years ago and I love it ! looks and flys great! I painted the bombs, rocket tubes and fuel tank to make it more scale. I get a lot of comments on it at the field! I also up graded it with a Reflex gyro! I cut 1/8 of inch off the outer gear doors so they won't hang up under the wheel doors! Just becareful cycling the gear with the plane upsided down!

FMS 1500 MM P47

I just received this model for Christmas 2023 . It was a gift from my sons. First impression, well packaged, no damage and very smooth finish and tight EPO cells .As we a know ( if you fly foam ) you love a finish that does not look like foam . From the start I had plans to change the livery to the Wackey Wabbit, love that scheme . First I wanted to assemble the model, check all the functions and then add the fun detail changes. The model went together very easily, I made a few minor changes . 1) I loosen the wing plug connectors at the fuselage side only . You will see RCers on line loosen the wing side -take precaution when you loosen one side of a quick connect the flex stress still occurs on the connection because the fueslage side is still restricted. For simple explanation - leave the wing side tight ( no changes ) loosen the fuselage side and simply enlarge the hole so the connector floats when attached to the wing. Now when the wing flexes in a normal flight fashion, the connections floats in the fuselage with zero stress on the connection. The other mod I added was a simple quick slide for removable bombs. Copying exactly what FMS did on the guns, I made my own side so the bombs are removable vs being glued in. This is especially helpful in transporting. The rest of the changes were minor fun scale, painting the pilot a different scheme, adding seat belts and some other small details to the very scale included cockpit. Overall the model is one of the best scale P47 ARFs on the market . From the included interior to the retract doors, it's outstanding and priced at a great value vs other 1500 Warbirds. Weather in Pa is too cold to maiden so I have to wait for some spring warm up but from the videos I expect this model to be a dream to fly !

Transmitter programming

Manual is excellent concerning assembly. Would recommend details on initial transmitter programming.

Excellent attention to detail

Although I have not flown this P-47 yet the detail is spot on and the mechanics were very easy to adjust for maiden flight. Most parts are built and secured well; however some parts like the gear doors and cowling on the nose need to be secured and engineered better. The wheels I would prefer to be normal rubber tire like or hard foam for landings. All in all it's a very good replica and built well. I will report back after my maiden flight with model.
