That flies beautifully, Crash! Looks the part, like you say. And thanks for the shout out, too ☺ I look forward to the Zero/Corsair battle to come.

Thank you Gina for you comments on the zero. The shout out was my honor. Pappy Lawrence is also looking forward to the upcoming dogfight. It should be fun. Having dogfighted before it’s a lot harder than you would think. But it will be fun. Hopefully the weather will be good for the upcoming duel

@@fltltcrashcrocker5017 No there was not a long nose Zero in real life, but that model has too long nose if you compare it to real Zero nose. I think the nose of the model is longer because that way the cg can be placed on right spot on this kind of small and light weight model. I had a Kyosho Zero Minium which had scale like nose section and it was very tailheavy, so tailheavy that when I was adding weight in the nose to correct the cg, it couldn't take off because it was too heavy.

Thank you for clearing that up. I thought it was a model of A6M that I had not heard of. It is a issue with all the mini warbirds and you are correct it is a CG issue. The Spitfire and BF 109 I have also have longer noses than they should. The A6M comes closest of all the mini warbirds to looking correct. I'm not sure if I said it on video or an an answer to a comment but the mini warbirds are meant to look like their real life counterparts but are not exact copy or detailed model.
