Kyosho Mustang special fuselage characteristics of the Mustang P40 are also faithfully reproduced and factory-finished. Factory-covered in high-quality lightweight film that maintains its color even if splashed with glow fuel and doesn’t wrinkle from variations in temperature. Either a fixed landing gear or retracts (sold separately) can be used. Internal structure is already prepared for installation of retractable landing gear.
