            Well since I'm now printing all my new planes, i could care less what is developed, but as for a B29, it deserves to be the biggest fastest WW 2 era model bomber as it was in the war it should be modeled. To do it the same size and speed as the B24 just wouldn't be right scale.LOL

              I am currently operating 5 HK 1875mm B-17s.... I would love to replace my B-17 fleet with a similar sized model from the masters at Flightline... C'mon Alpha, I am committing to at least 5 up front!

                  So how do you fly a squadron with one radio? If there is a way, I'm in for 5 too!;)

                    You do know that you can bind more than one RX to a single model memory, right? At least with Spektrum, you can. I can just see it, he's flying all 5 planes with one TX. Put your flack jacket on! ;)

                      O.K. so you set each plane about 50' apart in line on the runway so they all take off with that spacing and hopefully land that way too. Shoot me a video when you do it.LOLI would pay to see that.:Cool:

                        LOL I'm not doing it! I'm going to let BTL do it. I could never justify buying 5 planes of the same make and model. 2 planes of the same model, different makes is as far as I'll willing to go and even then, I'm kicking myself in the head for doing it.

                          You could buy the planes and just have different plane numbers and nose art in the case of B-17s.

                            You guys are crazy! Of course I don't fly them at the same time! One at a time is plenty exciting for me. However one time I had 2 of the mini B-17s bound at the same time. It was fi=un on the ground but no way would I try to fly them together!

                            And I did say I was operating 5 currently. I did not say I only HAD five!;)

                              To me, that’s having the same plane. I know people who collect clay frogs, hippos and garden gnomes and they claim they are all different. This takes it to a whole other level. :Whew:

                                Well in addition to flying planes, I also fly helicopters and quadcopters, som of which I have two of the same model since most of them used brushed motors so I fly one, then fly the second to let the first cool down, then fly the first one again, rinse and repeat.
