Alpha said this is where his ideas come from, so here we go. Thinking foamy.... Warbird (Twin)....B-25 or B-26 as large as is practical. Civilian(Twin)...Cessna 310 love the lines....Jet.Military...F-86 Large as practical 6S (great flyer)....Prop civilian (Twin)...Bob Hoover's Aeromaster..........I think that is a good Christmas wish list for Papa

Someone needs to do an I-16. Overloaded with character, and the name is just fun to say :)
Rata!

I know it could be quite a while before seeing an updated version of a model that has already been released, and it would cost quite a bit to do because it would be a new mold.
However, I would love to have another F-86 (or Fury) 80mm or 90mm EDF jet. I'd like for it to have significantly improved ducting, more robust retracts and suspension struts, lighting system, full gear doors (especially on the nose), a battery compartment that allows for a larger capacity LiPo to be used and still achieve CG easily, an updated power system, and some additional features.
I would also still like a 80mm or 90mm EDF Cougar (maybe a Panther too, but I still prefer the Cougar). We have a T-33, which has tip tanks, and a F-104 that has them too, so my vote would go to the Cougar since it doesn't have any. LOL. My beloved 70mm, 80mm or 90mm EDF Mig-29 must be around the corner, hopefully.....Then, a Saab Gripen would be nice. Once a foam chemistry other than EPS can be created to allow for resilient black painted foam, I'd be drooling for a large SR-71, a F-117, and B-2.
That is my short list

Totally agree with you Aros, I fly the 1600mm Corsair, Spitfire and Tigercat from FlightLine. All of the more "famous ones" ( P-51, P-40, P-47, Bf-109, FW-190 or Zero) in the 1600mm range from FlightLine would be really nice to see in the future. As a twin I would say HE-219, ME-410, A-20, P-61 or B-26....

If you're talkin'... Props: Would love to see a 1600mm Fw-190D from Flightline with scale prop, base paint and waterslide decals so we can customize. Jets: No one has ever done an A-5 Vigilante! And yet it lends itself well to single or twin setup. Again, do it in base colors, waterslide, and let us have the choice for insignia.

For the props, a 1600mm P51D Mustang!
And for the EFDs, a UK jet, maybe a Harrier GR7, Jaguar GR3 or Tornado GR4???!

Another old favorite, I'd love to see, is the 1960's A-37.... The" Dragonfly" Attractive as can be.....maneuverable...made for "Low and Slow" …..used by a few different Nations ( so there are several nice paintjobs ***check out Brazil or the S .Vietnamese, "Blue tanks w/ stars"}
NICE! Twin fans.. awesome paint.... Lots of visible cockpit to detail. what is not to love?
I'll wreck my credit a bit more, for a Dragonfly 80in or better..... (90 would be more gooderer 😉 ) I have just about recovered from the grand I just dropped on my awesome, new DO335 😏
I will buy it in foam....no mistake. I have the Flightline F7F and I love it....but my Phoenix A 26 Invader...Blackhorse He 111, and Do335, plus my Seagull, O2A Oscar deuce, show my preference for built up
I would much prefer it from Blackhorse....but I'll take it however I can get it

From the first time I saw it, I hoped it would win the ATF flyoff. It looks like a space ship as much as you know what. (see my avatar).Originally posted by JLambCWU View Post
Great flying jet when set up correctly. Has a low profile on the visual though.

Good to know! Will avoid this one.

Martin... I think you misspelled "Seamaster" or "Mars"

All our people are good, Valkpilot. Locking 60 million people indoors for a couple months seems to have done the trick.

Always liked the S-3 Viking or the Grumman F11F Tiger. It would be great to see something new to add to the collection. Or something really different like the Martin X51 with 3 fan !

More importantly, how are you and Team MRC China doing? Are things getting back to normal?Originally posted by Alpha View Post
kallend Having owned more than one in the past, I agree with you that the FlyFly Hunter is Old World Tech.
For our pipeline, it's not about "excluding" the Hunter, but rather more about the realities surrounding the costs to develop a new plane from the ground up. Motion RC develops new products at a world class rate, and in a given sub-category (of which there are more than 20) we should only be producing one model every 18 or so months. Producing five 90mm birds in the same year is Possible, but Unwise, because, well, market factors. "Everything is Coming" is one of my favorite concise answers to the question "What's next?", because it is true: We're going to put our spin on every model we can as long as we're around. We're just not going to be able to do every plane in every size at once. Our common enemy is not Intent, but Time.
If/when we were to do an 80mm or 90mm Hunter, for example, we wouldn't release it before an 90mm F-4 (check) or an 80mm L-39 or MiG-21 (check and check), and absolutely wouldn't release it in the same year we released a similarly sized Vulcan and Gripen and Tweet. We're very mindful of what other birds are out or coming out soon from us and others, so there's an element of air traffic control to ensure planes in similar sizes from similar eras/families don't land on top of each other. That wouldn't help any of the factories stay in business.
Take heart, friends, that when [at increasingly predictable intervals] the airspace clears, we always have birds ready to run CAP.

I agree with a resurrection of the 1600mm warbird series. I believe it's been a year and a half since a 1600mm release? Pacific theater please, F6F, F4F, or B-25....or better yet, all 3!

I have a FlyFly Hunter. It's an awful, poorly engineered kit using obsolete technology - not to mention that it's impossible to find any more. I do not understand the logic of excluding a Hunter.

A LARGE P 39 or A 26 Invader would be a must have for me. I have not seen either of them in foam from any manufacturer.
we all know Freewing builds the best foam planes on the market.
