That is what I was thinking of them. pretty lame but look at how many people copy BVM paint schemes.

I put the SM110-47 with a HET motor as supplied bu Stu, it has a CC160HV ICE2 programmed, modded, and loaded into a TamJets tailcone by Tam. I got six flights in last Saturday (maiden) with GensAce 12s 25c 5500 mAh packs. Five min flights with 30% left. Outstanding performance! If you can get an SM110-47 you should. It is really good, we were flying Stumax and Viofan Electra's on 12s back to back (but not at the same time) all day and performance is too close to call... but I'm glad I got the Stumax

Ok the Specs are in

Wing span: 58" 3/4....1492.25mm
Fuselage length: 67"..........1701.80mm
Wing Area: 705.........17907mm

Billy,

Any chance that you and Andy would consider changing the name to something other than Blaze so that it doesn't offend anyone that supports Tumbler and the development of his Blaze sport jet?

We never had any intentions to offend anyone on the name. I have talked with Brian on this and it was just bad timing when it all came out. Brian has sold the molds and never put it production. I used a name that i call my truck over 20 years ago. Then i built another truck like it 10 years ago and call it Blazo 2. Didn't like Blazo so we used Blaze.

I think the problem people are having is the fact I started this project in November 2008 and so even though it was never a production plane, it has has been around a long time and many people associate the name The Blaze with my jet. Had JTM released a dynamic slope soarer with the name The Blaze I don't think anyone would care. But they came out with a plane which very closely resembles mine. Of course mine looks very much like a Bandit or an Electra and there is nothing wrong with that unless I tried to sell it and call it a Bandit or Electra. I will go on the record and say I have no problem with them using the name and I have no right to. Its just a name and my plane never went into production anyway. Because My Blaze and JTM's Blaze look so similar and there are a million names to chose from, I would think they could come up with another name. That's all. I really do appreciate everyone looking out for me Thanks for the support guys!! Lots of people wanted me to sell them a Blaze and I never could deliver......at least now JTM has allowed people to own a bigger and better Blaze! By the way, I do want one of these.

Billy,

Will the production version look exactly like the prototype that flew at E-Jets or will there be any changes?
