Mini P-51D Instruction
Addendum
These
are the differences between the original RA Cores P-51D Mustang kit build
instructions and the Mini P-51D kit.
The
mini kit is 6mm EPP rather than the 9mm of the original kit.
The
flat carbon strips are 5mm rather than 7mm and the pushrods are 1.3mm rods
rather than 2mm rods. The fuselage spine is 2mm CF rod instead of 3mm.
There
is no stick motor mount in the Mini kit. The motor is mounted on a plywood
firewall provided and backed by several half round pieces of 6mm EPP from the
Fuselage Sheet. The motor (used in our completer) is mounted with 3 screws.
When you glue the plywood disk into the fuselage, align the wires with the
lower quadrant where the radio equipment will be located. This is easiest if
you mount the screw in line with the notch to the bottom.
The
initial CG should be 1 7/8” back from the leading edge of the wing
