P-51D Mustang Instruction Manual.pdf
The Great Planes P-51D Mustang is a semi-scale (approximately 1/8-scale) model of the full-size North American P-51D. The prototype as pictured on the box cover is not a copy of any one full-size airplane in particular. Rather, we selected several typical trim features from several aircraft, making a good-looking and rather “generic” trim scheme that typifies the Mustang we all know.
This is not a beginner’s airplane! While the P-51D is easy to build and flies great, we must discourage you from selecting this kit as your first R/C airplane. It is fast, highly maneuverable, and lacks the self-recovery characteristics of a good basic trainer such as the Great Planes PT Series airplanes. On the other hand, if you have already learned the basics of R/C flying and you are able to safely handle an “aileron trainer” airplane such as the Great Planes Trainer Series or Big Stick Series airplanes, the P-51 D is an excellent choice.
