  • Yeah once you price the majority out of the market, all you have is a plane only a few can buy as the rest sit on the shelf waiting to be discontinued. So to have something that's profitable they gotta keep things within reason since you dont want a mold unit that wont pay for itself in the end.

      Because bigger flys better!

          Not when you have a 150' runway, with drop-offs at both ends, and a flight corridor 200'wide.

          • With the advent of gyros not the case anymore, unless you reaaally need flight instruction. (for larger planes fly better)

            • if no one has a problem with a 2000mm bomber, than I should be able to get a 2000mm zero. really 78inch w/span is not huge unless its a one piece wing.

              • Talking 4 motor vs 1. So what they should do is build millions of dollars mold for one plane then destroy it. The bombers are also built for a tighter niche market vs fighters like more want, so you have to take that into account if you ever want a profit. 1600 is plenty large enough.

                  gyro or not I still stand by what I said.
                  Everybody has a different requirement to suit budget and field size. If you have a smaller field then obviously you need a suitable sized plane. If you have a smaller budget instead of having 10 smaller sized planes you could possibly have two good (read bigger) planes.

                  I know now you know bigger is good as you have a CZ Trojan and that flys better than any of the smaller variants.
                  I’m not sure I get where you’re going with the flight instruction comment, but I’m fine thanks.

                  • my friend has a 1600mm spity, I like it it is a very good size, I was being a little greedy when asking for a 2000mm zero, but if they would make a 1600-1700mm version I would be all over that. I had the 1400mm one and loved it . but they dc that one

                    • +1 for biggies... I would love to see a 120mm A-4 xDD.
                      I have observed that many people in this forum have nearly the whole FW warehouse in their signature so for most having a slightly bigger and more expensive one is not an issue I believe. Airfield restrictions is another topic of course and understandable.

                        Thank you! That's all I was saying.:Cool:

                        • I rather have a variety of different planes than just a couple. Although from the CZ T28 to any of my other planes they all fly the same to me. Even the twins, they will all do controlled tail touches in 25+ mph wind without any trouble. I mean even my new 70mm A10 is just as smooth as anything I've ever flown. I'm thinking of buying myself a couple sheets of plywood some surgical tubing and make a carrier deck, then maybe get a good f18 and add a hook. Regular landings are getting so boring I'm almost falling asleepLOL

                          • Boring landings are the best ones. That was very nice.

                                  • I drive a small Subaru Impreza so I only have room for few RC planes. I did take 3 one time and I took the wings off of my trainer, a Durafly Tundra, and my small F86 Sabre. When i take my B26 I really don't have anymore room.

                                        First, you do know that the F/A-18 has ACLS. Second, to make it REALLY interesting, mount the whole thing on a couple of half-full water bed mattresses.

                                          I also drive an Impreza WRX Sedan and 3 planes have been the most I have been able to fit but I only take 2 on average. The main reason being its a pain to put on and remove the wings because of all the wiring with lights.
                                          I would like to see more models with quick connections like what e-flight uses. Either that or folding wings. Like if FLRC ever did a large F4U Corsair it should have folding wings at that scale.
