*Insert Ride of the Valkyries*
After an almost 4 year hiatus, I make my grand return with a quick little day build of one of the yanks' finest. The North American P-51 Mustang!
Despite being a Brit, I think even we can admire this aircraft for the beaut that it is.
So here you go, enjoy it, fly it, shoot things.

@SkyFly no problem mate :D
@Levi124 perfect, cheers mate :)
@SkyFly oh well, it's fine. Maybe I can try, I tell you if I found a way
@Levi124 Unfortunately it would have moved the CoM a bit too far ahead of the CoL, which im sure given enough time I could figure it out, but I didn’t spend all that much on this one :)
@SkyFly how about making the something in the front of the plane heavy? Will that work or no?
@Levi124 It does indeed, you can trim it for different speeds, I just could get the low speed performance without adjusting the angle of the horizontal stabs
@SkyFly I mean it flies well just that it constantly pitches up slowly, but other than that it flies well.
@Levi124 Doesn't it just, I was a little bit miffed by the chord of the wings, definitely something wrong with my model haha
Ah the P-51... One of my favorite war planes for some reason. Looks amazing
