I'm assuming air pressure running from one of the air tanks for the retraction of the landing gear. An additional tank may be required. I'm thinking 7-8 channels for this. Thank you Christopher.
Have you got any idea what R/C set you will use for this ?an if you have could we have a picture of it please
chris
Presently I have an old Futaba 8UAP PCM 1024 transmitter I've been flying my 1/5th scale Mustang on. Whether or not I'll change over is an undecided decision.
OK Steven so you can fly the planes then as i found out it very hard any chance of a pic of your mustang ?

Thank you Ian. It's been a battle for me being bipolar. There are times when I go for months without touching anything. It happens and you just ride out the storm. Yes I do take medication as prescribed and routinely see my doctors. It's the best one can do.
