Now I have to FMS planes on my list of must haves with the FW-190! Any word when this will be available?????????

zero will be available at the end of May, 190 ... end of June.

Great, gives me time to find a new place to live after my wife kicks me out for purchasing too many planes, sure glad I have seperate checking accounts

Just had a thought is anyone taking pre orders

If its like the others, it will be available in Asia, Australia and Europe before its available in the States. I would give Nitro ~2 months from launch to stock it.

PW-RC.com and other overseas retailers will have it first if you can't wait.

Does it glow in the dark?

As I said in the F6F thread....

Between the new V6 P51, this F6F and now a Zero..... Parkzone and my bank account will be missing out on alot of cash this winter!

Crap, and here I am building a CMS Zero and modifying it for electric power.

If this is like the T-28 & Fw-190??? If you see this in the USA before Christmas I would be very suprised. How many months have we been waiting for Nitroplanes to get the T-28 in stock? Or better yet just a re-supply of the MANY "Out of Stock" models on their current website. I will believe it when I see it listed as "In Stock" before that I am sure we will see this thread grow to 200-300 before any are here in the USA for sale. IMO for what it is worth.

A little putty and a little paint you no one will ever know

selling one kidney

wow, nice zero, kind of wish i would have waited , i already bought the hobby lobby a6m5c from escale quite a nice airplane although not as big

they should have left the foam on the prototype in the white would have looked much better than the glow in the dark green

You gotta be kidding, from spinner to tip of the tail it is all WRONG to say I don't want one.

Great haven't even assembled the corsair yet.........bankrupt, divorced.......on skid row ............with only foamies to keep me warm

Excited to think there'll possibly be a big Tempest or Typhoon coming...

Mike I've known for quite a while that FMS were going to release a 1400mm Hellcat and that the smaller version releasd many months ago was used as a bit of R&D but I was'nt allowed to spill any beans so to speak regarding a release date

So now, if there's a 'little' typhoon/tempest then..........
