Taking a full year to scratch build from Ziroli plans, this 1/4.6 scale P51D Mustang had its first flight attempt in April of 2024. Unfortunately it suffered a prop strike during initial takeoff, and the next attempt at her maiden was delayed until June 13th of the same year. Returning to RAMS field in East Bend, NC, pilot Ryan once again suffered a prop strike on take off, but this time he had several spares on hand. Fortunately, only one more replacement was needed, but there were still plenty of thrills involved in getting airborne!
