Airplanes and Rockets - Philip Blattenberger with P-40 Warhawk profile C/L in Melbourne, FL, 1996The photo to the right shows my son, Philip Blattenberger, with P-40 Warhawk profile C/L in Melbourne, FL, in the springs of 1996. It had our standard Cox Black Widow .049 engine on it.

The image below is of my Top Flite P-40 Warhawk control line airplane kit that I bought on eBay. I have checked all the parts against the plans and everything appears to be present.

I have decided to go ahead and build this P-40 Warhawk as an electric-powered scale project. To keep costs down, an inexpensive brushed, geared motors will be used along with wither a NiMH or LiPo battery, and probably just an on/off switch rather than a motor control.

The AMA Plans Service offers a full-size version of plans at a very reasonable cost. They will scale the plans any size for you.
