Auto Credit Based on Mustang51's 1945-1950 Naval Aviation Challenge (Closed)
This is my entry to Mustang51's challenge. He said he'd credit points to how realistic it flies but I don't know the flight characteristics of a Panther so I'm just hoping it flies somewhat to scale. Its really one of my best models in my opinion and its quite fun to fly. Just very difficult to land so I suggest adding power on landing. It can also land on aircraft carriers if you're skilled enough. 1=Nav lights 2=arresting hook 8=Wing folding G=LandingGear. It is also armed with 4 guns. Enjoy!

Very great build . What progress . Great finitions .
Thank you! Yea I don't know how to prevent this thing from flying with the wings folded but hopefully Mustang51 won't care lol.@Tums
This is awesome!!!! You can fly with the wings folded, sort of. I’m no expert, but this handles pretty realistically.
