  1. I’m looking specifically for parts for the Curtiss P-6E Hawk ARF with a 76″ wingspan 1/5th scale (GPMA1219). Do you know where I can get new or used spare parts for this bird?

    1. Jim, I just had one given to me. New and never completely assembled. I wanted to fly it but can’t find struts for it anywhere. From what I can tell the following parts are missing:

      All four struts; strut brackets; wind screen; machine guns; exhaust inserts which glue to cowl. This thing is gorgeous.
