One of the few taildraggers that tracks well on the ground..... or so it appears! Very nice! Some really cool stills there Pete! Love the side shot that looks like a photo from a model box! I think it's your thumbnail! It's perfect!
Great work! The technical stills are very enlightening too. Details you don't normally see. That's why I watch ALL of your stuff Pete! Thank you! Excellent content always!

[@tbobborap1]

wow - thanks for your kind comments steve - much appreciated, I also like the pics as you say for the close up detail etc, thanks for your continual support steven - regards pete

Very nicely flown and great filming too,you cannot beat a P-47,this must be one of Dave Platts old designs always great performers.

I realize it's kinda randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to stream new tv shows online?

[@warrenharley6322]

@Apollo Justice Lately I have been using flixzone. You can find it on google =)

[@cbgadget4740]

Another beautiful war bird, P47 is a bad ass airplane.
Engine sounded pretty good for what looked like a single cylinder but I’m sure the 55cc is up to the work.
That Deano is surely one Ace pilot. He is the Chuck Yeager of RC aircraft pilots and I mean that in admiration.
Your video Awesome as usual Pete. Keep em coming mate.
👍👍👍😎😎😎 Cary

[@tbobborap1]

awesome model cary, thanks for your kind words my friend - pete

[@billstewart5421]

Beautiful airplane!!!! Well done!!!!

[@tbobborap1]

Thanks a lot bill !

[@jesuscardin6751]

Thanks for the video! This is the type I like most when Deano helps friends on maidening new models. On the other hand, what about that Mosquito in the background at the beginning of the video?

[@tbobborap1]

thanks jesus, yes deano test flew her as well, video to come soon !!!!!!!!

[@matthewbrothers2823]

[@tbobborap1]

thanks carlos

[@capnpete1154]

So cool. Are the flaps & retracts pneumatic?

[@tbobborap1]

thanks pete, just the retracts are pneumatic on this one

[@arthurvanaalst]

Is the DLE 55 a RE version or side exhaust? Please let me know!

[@tbobborap1]

judging by the photo at 8:04 it shows a side exhaust with a pitts style wrap around silencer arthur

[@EnterpriseXI]

Is it me or does that prop look like it's not spinning straight?

[@tbobborap1]

thanks 206, it is running straight but is probaly an optical illusion through the digital lens !

[@ronaldpearman5366]

@@tbobborap1 also the engine is mounted via a Great Planes flexible mount that allows a little movement more noticeable at tick-over.

[@georgegooding57]

Needs a scale 4 blade prop on that beast.

[@tbobborap1]

the engine wont turn a scale prop george

[@georgegooding57]

That's too bad, it sure would look great though.

[@ricardovar100]

Nice

Der Motor hört sich am wie eine Blechbüchse.🤨

[@av8tore71]

I have the Flite Test P-47 now I want one of these. That was a very nice video. Thanks for the video, very nice!
I'm an airplane mechanic and work for www.courtesyaircraft.com and we have a complete P-47 in a conex last flown in 1954 all the instruments are in cosmoline. Need to fabricate some parts but I think it'll fly again.

[@tbobborap1]

Glad it was helpful!

[@1976axerhand]

Vn. You guys need to find something more difficult for deano to fly.. If a microwave had wings he could fly it...

[@tbobborap1]

lol - thanks glen,

[@dennism103]

Shut up and take my money!

[@tbobborap1]
