Lou I am really sorry for late reply. Right now I cannot answer for sure.
Temporally no contact with CD (because of vacation)
My guess: It is P40 in scale 1/10+15%. But not so sure.
Might be even bigger scale...

For 2004 season in Russian Scale AirCombat any scale are allowed as well as any engine size. It made to attract as many people as possible.
We did realize in the very beginning not many people have 0.25-engine. Bigger engines are more popular now.

(A lot of pilots now (about 50) in open class (It more like US open-C. Engine up to 8cc (tuning pipe also allowed in Russian open Combat).
You can easily imagine how it looks like… Some guys have speed 230km/h (remember plenty of CL-combat people playing in RC-combat).
I keep hoping a new pilot will arrive from Russian Open RC-combat. http://rccombat.ru/

So where Scale class was started in early 2004 after discussion on forum http://forum.rccombat.ru/ Decision was made: Let people try scale combat to make his own opinion. After that we will vote in the end of season about rules again.

I will work hard to keep engine size in Russian Scale compatible with outside world. We will see result later.
By the way, what scale class will be on next NATS? (2610 or 2548 or something else?)
