Hi Larry,  Have you tried: www.modelenginecollectors.org?

Yup, that's what it is.  Thanks.  Now, do I dare run it ($300 buck engine, and I may scratch the case??)

I think it would be safe enough in a Speede-Built flown as a scale model.  No stunting, for sure!  I need to go look and see which kits I have,  I am sure I have the P-51, at least.  If it runs the little 3" prop from the Cox .010, the front end will have to be pretty clean, so no P-47 or Corsair.

I have a stack of Ron's replica kits, and if anything they are better than the originals!

Hell Larry its a diesel for chrisake! use it for an outboard wing weight! jus kiddin its cute as hell! A scale FF that's the way to go, S omethin cool  like a "Buhl-pup" or "polish fighter" I like the monogram speedee-built P-51.   LARRY have you ever tried using "monofilament Fishing line for lines I would bet 6lb test would be strong enough.             Jim I

...As far as a freeflight is concerned, NO WAY am I letting a $300 engine go off on its own!  It will have strings or a radio link.

Geez! I wouldn't fly it over hard surfaces either!!!

you probably already have this, but Ron Anderson has a whole listing of Monogram Speedt Built models that he is reproducing.  .  These reproductions are as good as the original and include the molded plastic parts like those contained in the original kits.  The Long Midget Mustang would be perfect for that little diesel.

Millville, NJ, July 1950 (yes, same meet Bob Hunt attended as a 5-year-old):

I saw a guy enter a Monogram Speedee-Bilt Midget Mustang, painted metallic blue and powered with a K&B .020, in the "Beauty" event (they didn't call it "Scale"; just "Beauty").  As best as I can recall (having been 10 years old at the time) he placed Third behind a Sterling Waco and a Miniature Aircraft kit of the F2G.

A couple of years later I saw the uncle of a neighbor kid successfuly fly a Speedee-Bilt P-40 kit with an OK Cub .049B.  (The landing gear collapsed on landing, of course.)  Point is, those little Speedee-Bilts WILL fly on lines with a small enough engine.  These days, you might try a Cox .020.

Agree on the Ron Anderson reproductions:  I have a few of them, and have sold and/or given away a couple of others.  They are absolutely fantastic, and well worth the current $30.00 (better check that) price.  Contact Ron via e-mail at the address shown above in Keith's post.

I think you missed a decimal point, Mike! 

Not that I can see.  Mind telling me where?
