Here are my pros and cons for this HobbyKing P-51:

Pros:
- This V2 come with a gyro installed
- Quick and easy assembly
- Wing tanks can be used as skids for belly landing

Cons:

This is how Hobby King describes with H-King P-51D WWII Warbird:

"This H-King version of the classic P-51D warbird is manufactured in a superbly finished EPO foam in an authentic blue and silver color scheme plus all the decals are factory applied. This is the updated V2 version of this popular model and it now comes with a built in 6 axis ORX flight stabilization system to make it even easier to fly. The stabilization system utilizes a 32bit MCU and a 6 axis digital gyro for ultra fast control response, it can also be switched from beginners mode to expert mode.

The H-King P-51D Mustang “Moonbeam McSwine” is based on a P51D built in 1944 and flown by Capt. William T Whisner. Whisner joined the 487th Fighter Squadron which was part of the 352nd Fighter group based in Bodney, England, this group became affectionately known as the "Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney". Capt. Whisner was credited with 15 1/2 aerial victories during World War 11 which made him a triple ace, an outstanding achievement. The Mustang was one of the iconic US fighters from this era, it was economical to build, had long range, was fast, maneuverable and would take a lot of punishment.

There is little to build with the H-King P51D, it comes 97% pre-built with the motor, ESC and servos pre-installed. All you need to do is fit the main wing, tail assembly and plug in the main landing gear. To complete the model you require your own transmitter, receiver and flight battery, after that everything else is included.

It has the power to do all the maneuvers required for a WWII fighter and looks fantastic in the air. The stabilization system makes it very smooth and easy to fly and because of it's size it is perfect for local parks, large indoor areas or the local flying patch.
