Title: Banjock P-51
Post by: t michael jennings on October 26, 2016, 04:06:25 PM

Gentlemen,

Dan Banjock was at the Huntersville Control Contest two weeks ago.

He had his two FOX engine P-51 there. 

I could not see the engine size on the engines.
What sizes are the engines?

Thanks for the info.

               Dan's engines are two Fox .35's. The inline Fox is currently on a P-47. Dan had the engine on a Bearcat prior to the P-47.   They were very problematic initially. I believe Dan has that sorted out now. I have a F-82 Mustang with twin Fox .35's on it. Ironically, Dan and my son Shawn fly together annually and Dan's inline twin and my F-82 fly from start to finish identically. It's pretty neat. They tend to get pretty risky with these and it's really neat to see them flying inverted inches from the ground with one stacked on top of the other.

Ya gotta love Danny's enthusiasm for flying ANYTHING C/L ....from Dynajet powered stunters to 6"ws Cubs on like 10' lines to beautifully crafted stunt ships and anything in between. For me, as a new guy getting back into "Stunt" Danny is just plain fun to be around.....and so are you and Shawn.....PhillySkip
