By now I hope we've established that we are pushing "What's Next " on multiple fronts at the same time, not just foam electric birds in a one-at-a-time fashion. Some of these product announcements we've been making throughout 2020 so far are for things coming soon, things coming later, and things already here...
At this point, posting a request or guess in this thread for a balsa Hindenburg would be just as applicable as a foam Concorde or composite Miss Budweiser or a super scale Big Foot.

I’m excited to see the new Nexa line being added on to the lineup! I’m sure you are already on it, but I’d love to see a V2 of quite a few of the formerly VQ lineup. While they generally fly very well, but VQ always has lacked a certain amount of attention to scale outlines. I understand not everything will scale 100% (on any RC model for that matter) but I’d love to see the Freewing/Flightline attention to scale brought over to the newer models. A V2 of the F-82 Twin Mustang would be an absolute must-have for me, with the stretched fuselages, and a more scale sized wing. I debated getting one and trying the stretch/trim job myself, but looking it over it would entail almost as much effort as starting from a bare kit..

What I for one really appreciate is you're willing to try models of less commonly, even rarely modelled subjects. The BH DO-335 and HE-111 are perfect examples (although the Dornier seems to have a hardcore and vocal following). Thank you for being willing to take the risks in offering such models, especially in balsa which I suspect is a less popular format these days.
If I had to pare my own wishlist down to just 5 planes, I think it would be (in no particular order):
F4F Wildcat
Hawker Typhoon
Boulton-Paul Defiant
I-16 Rata
Avro Lancaster
All balsa, the single-engine planes 70'-80' wingspan, the Lanc up to say 90".

I had been thinking about rockets too. It was my primary hobby since the late 70's until I got into RC planes about 10 years ago. It's a much smaller market than RC (miniscule here in Canada), and almost entirely kit-based.
As far as safety goes, as long as the participants follow the appropriate safety codes and regulations, it's actually very safe.

And as Shakespeare wrote "And there's the rub." Just as there are people who don't follow the rules with RC aircraft, there are those in rocketry who won't, and they to will get the bulk of the headlines.
