Beautiful! The full scale wasn’t fast, but it was a workhorse with no bad habits. Pappy Gunn stuck some crazy number of machine guns on these things and became the scourge of the Japanese Merchant Marine in WWII, and did it at an age that would qualify for the Senior’s Discount at IHOP, 😂.
I investigated useing the Tigercat propellers and this is what I found : 1. The Tigercat and B25 have the same motor specs. 2. The motor shafts have different bolt hole patterns. 3. The motor will have to be shimmed forward. 4. The B25 cowl hole would have to be made considerably bigger. (that I will not do) Although they may look appropriate and can be made to work. I would rather stick with my original plan of useing master airscrew factory balanced cw and ccw 13/8 and make a custom shaft spacer / adapter to lock the prop to the shaft. I can do it without any alterations to the plane. It also flies very well as it comes in the box with the 13/5 propellers. The B25 is very scale but if the props were true scale like the real plane they would be 14 1/2" , but that's too low for an rc model in grass.
It's cool that you got the B25 bc those are extremely nice flying birds. You can drop a 6s 100cc pack easily just as long ESC can handle the extra juice. What batteries do you use mostly? I like SMC and Admiral packs.
Gotta love a B-25 nicely done.......
Great Job on flight and landing nice looking warbird☺👍👍👍👍
Nice flying TJ , cant wait to move to NC so i can join you guys

Doesn't need 100c , 40c will do just fine and would be lighter in lipo weight as well
