You forgot to thank ME!..

If it wasn't for me, you weren't going to be at the Top Gun show last year and weren't going to see the small A-10 and fall in love with it and hence Your wife wouldn't be posing with something that is bigger than her

I should have been on top of that list.

How detailed are you going to make it?

It's going to have panel lines and rivets, weathering, and a full cockpit and pilot. I already have the pilot. But my plans are to first build the plane and fly it in primer to get any bugs worked out before I start on the paint and detailing. The cockpit and pilot will be installed in the beginning for C.G. reasons.

I got 2 TF 8000's for that thing!!!! Do you think 50 lbs of thrust would push her

A friend of mine has one that he flys on a single P-80 and the one in my avitar has flown on one dynamax ducted fan.

Brad's kit has a special "light layup" for electric only!!

Where can I get the "light layup" version?

Thanks,

That looks awesome!

It's funny how pictures with women in them always get more views than pictures of planes.

Wow, sweet, and it even comes with a really pretty girl in the box! Where's my debit card!

We seem to have run out of the really big, wow, huge, massive, enormous sort of words. Thought Ivan's A10 was pretty big, but that is wellll... err really, REALLY BIG (run out of imaginative descriptive phrases so typed it in caps )

Hope you got a big trailer Good luck, wish I could be there with a camera on the maiden

Given all the words for "big" have been used, there's only one thing left for me...



Can't wait for this to develop!

Yes, Ivan Goodchild of the Uk, his is around 10-12% smaller than that, twin ds94 12s. He moved from TF4000, don't know why?

7 percent more efficinecy x2? lol Also just a guess, but I bet longer flight times due to lower load and higher maintainable speed at lower throttle setting.
