Default 2/3 scale P51 Mustang takes to the air for the first time

There are a number of aircraft enthusiasts here with Eichhörnchen and his excellent paintings, Jim's various well detailed models, Von Due looking for info on codes on vintage aircraft and even aktungs first flight. I'm sure there are many others here. I found this video of the first flight of a 2/3 scale P 51 D Mustang. The powerplant is an LS1 350.

I'm wondering if this was built from a kit or custom built and it begs the question, are there kits available other iconic aircraft such as the ****e-Wulf FW 190, Messerschmitt Bf 109 or Me-262 jet aircraft and the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero ? I'm sure others have a favorite WW2 aircraft like the Vought F4U Corsair and / or others. I hope we see others like this one flying at our local air shows. This video was taken in 2011.
