Boy, the interest for this bird is looooow... must be the slowest FMS thread ever, even worse than the thread about the toy Bf109...

Seems not every plane that is shouted for gets the attention in reality...

Anyways, here are some more pics. I am not gonna buy this bird as there are to many others on my list, but maybe someone around here will

Cheers,
Bernhard

The hellcat is one of my favorites but my budget is blown for now...

Scott.

From the Grumman "cat" family that is my least favorite.

I have a Bearcat and like the Wildcat, but I'd kill for a F7F Tigercat.

Please FMS make the Tigercat as next twin warbird !!!

Bernard, I love this bird. I'm a big fan of the cat family. I'm assuming retracts?

lol I'd forgotten I had subscribed to this thread, I'm with you Bernhard and won't be getting this bird...to many other nice ones coming out catchya later guys!

I want one!!!!!!

Oh I'm definitely heading there... I mean I do still work for what's left of the old Iron Works in Bethpage.

I had a scorpio hellcat a few years ago but never built it and practically gave it away!

I'm a Hellcat fan and if the retracts are done right, I'll be likely to buy - Consider my interest high, but nearly tapped out by two other upcoming models - The FMS P-38 and Unique Models' T-6A Texan II!

Yep, this bird's gonna have retracts. Rotating scale retracts, basically pretty much the same unit they are using on the F4U. Hope the quality will increase, the F4U's retracts seem to be failing all over the place...

Well if I hadnt just bought a freaking 1100mm version I would be all over this.

Tell you what.... make a matching 1400mm F4F Wildcat and Ill pick up all 3 Pacific bashers.

Started with Freewing, then a pw-rc and nitro 1100mm, then got burned with the folding wing banana hobby art Tech which was a bad one, the Freewing and the pw-rc nitro flew great. Too many problems with BH that F6F so it is grounded. Looks good but junk.
I am looking forward to this F6f from fms
Hope intrest stays high on this model as sure want one with rotating retracts. One of my Freewing I tried using the hand made retracts I purchased from Oran but could never get them to work with the wing. Think Oran dropped selling those retracts
I have not seen this showing for sale anywhere. Would like to preorder if not too long.
May drop line to Pw and see if he will be getting them soon or if he know when will be mfg

Oh I want one! Then I'll have to get the zero to go with it

I am looking forward to this plane and my friend wants the Zero.... it's a perfect setup for us to have some fun at the field.

I likey.
