XP-82

[Divedevil]

Hello,
I am working on a 1:1 scale XP-82 and want to build a 1:18 scale replica for the project director. I just purchased a scratch and dent p-51 from a member of this site. Anyone know where I can find another 21st century P-51? I need two, and prefer damaged ones due to the extensive mods they will receive.

Of course they would need to be from the same release as I believe 21st century changed the wing chord on the later releases.

Thanks,
Divedevil

wich model do you own ? i think you can find easily one ebay ... now if i send you 3 mustangs would you do one F 82 for me ?

Could you tell us more about the 1:1 project ? will it be a flyable one ? is it for air racing ? is it an historic plane or a replica ?

I can toyally imagine the video you could make for pilot & non-pilot in the right fuselage : it will look as you are flying a mustang ... ALONE

With some good angles with the cameras you can do really impresives shooting , even jokes : "look ! i do a loop with no hands !!!!"

I want to do it !!!!!!!!! after you can brag that the mustang is really like a big cessna 152 !!!!!

The purchase I mentioned earlier didn't work out. It turned out to be a 1:32 scale. And although I own most of the 1:18 scale warbirds offered by 21st I never purchased a P-51.

So...to answer your question...I have none!

When i get this project going I'll make certain to post photos so you'll be able to build your own if you like!

You can find more information on the Custom & Mods thread.

Thanks.

Glad to see the 44-83877 out of Soplata's.

Did y'all find a prop yet?

Nope. So we are going to make one using a Ham Stand 25d40 hub instead of using the less reliable aero. We have the prints for the counter blades, and have a source for manufacture.

After we spend the money on tolling we should be able to help a couple of other projects out there in the same predicament.
