P-51 'GALLOPING GHOST'

H-KING'S 1016MM SPAN, PLUG & FLY SPORTS-SCALE HOT ROD!

i

INTRODUCTION: 

The H-King P51 "Galloping Ghost" is the first in a new mini-series from H-King, the "Reno Aces", WW2 fighters dressed to 
impress at the air races. The P-51 "Galloping Ghost" with the included stock 3108-1070KV brushless motor offers a really 
quick model straight out of the box with speeds approaching 100mph when using the recommended 2200mah 4S lipo. 

However, if you are an experienced hand and are looking for 100+ mph speeds then there is the optional drop-in fit 

3108-1170KV 'Pro' brushless motor. This will give your great-looking Reno Ace a really ballistic performance on the same 
prop,  ESC, and 4S battery for those that can handle the extra rotational torque on launch .. 

The P-51 as a design has excellent flying qualities, but the H-King "Galloping Ghost" especially so.  Its low drag design and 
generous wing section results in a model that really grooves and feels locked in at full power, but slow it down and it is a 
real pussycat too, and just as much fun. The stall is very benign, basically non-existent, the controls remain effective 
through the complete speed range, and aerobatics, it can do them all. Once you're done with your 6+min flight, fully flared 
landings are very easy to achieve and make belly landing the P-51 a pure joy. 

So to summarize, the H-King P-51 "Galloping Ghost" is fast out of the box with the pre-installed motor (optional 'Pro' motor 
available for even more speed), it has fantastic flying qualities with good fast and slow speed handling, is strong, and quick 
to assemble. It is a great contender for use at fun, club pylon racing events with the strength and maneuverability to do 
"Bank and Yank" pylon turns. A great, fun airplane that is brilliant to fly, looks fantastic in the air, and will have you smiling 
from ear to ear the whole time you are flying it. 

Thank you, and please have an amazing time with your new H-King P-51  Galloping Ghost
