    Totally agree. I just look at the LX Su-57 extensive mods required, the fact that LEVCON's are not functional and the non-scale shape and function of the rudders and I get totally turned off.

    Now, if FW made a Su-57 with full flying vertical stabs as well as horizontal stabs, thrust-vectoring and working LEVCONs I'd jump right in... take my money! :DDD
    Ideas for the LEVCONs: for those users that are not really into complex mix stuff, just use them in combination with flaps.
    I would likely drop a gyro in or even code my own LEVCON-controller with Arduino so that it would react according to gyro and accelerometer inputs :D

      A t-2 Buckeye would be an amazing airplane to have!

          I think an F-101 Voodoo would be neat.

            What do you guys think? Looks like a corporate hangar but I may be reading too much into it. My guess is a Flightline bird. 1600 P-47 maybe?

              New product announcement tomorrow ladies and gents. Any guesses as to what may be announced. I’m gonna have a guess and say either a new flight line model. Possibly a new 1600mm warbird. A Seafury would be nice.

              Or

              Another FW model, I’m hoping for a Eurofighter Or a Rafale the same scale as the Mig 29 with twin 80mm fans. 🤛😊😁

                  My guess is.... not an airplane. They just announced a big airplane (which I have on pre-order). Maybe it's someone else's turn, lol. They have cars, boats, tanks, and helicopters. It could be any one of those, or maybe a new line of RC cats for people with allergies.

                    Makes you wonder a bit. What if MRC brought out a new flight line model. A 1600mm P51 or an 1600mm ME109 and had them in stock for immediate release.
                    You know they are cheeky at times...... Especially that Alpha......

                        Both James and Alpha mentioned an Easter egg in the MiG-29 launch. I noticed this in the assembly video which made me think P-47. Alpha also did a "designing a warbird" session on Twitch this week...

                          I really hope this isn't something I have to have. My downstairs bathroom flooded my office space and I need to get it fixed and floors replaced. That pretty much devoured my play money and time

                            You distinguish between an "airplane" and a "jet"? Plus, nowhere in that "announcement" does it say anything about "Flightline" (or anything else for that matter).

                                    B29 ( people have been begging for one)

                                        You'll get more money "parting them out" rather than as a whole unit.

                                          A foamy Mosquito would be nice, especially one the size of the old Parkzone one, especially since there aren't any on the market currently,
