I'd love some of those, funny how they have been almost forgotten by the Manufacturers. Mustangs, we need more mustangs!! Ra Ra RA. LOL

Fact is I hope all this buzz about a S-3 Viking isn't just a bunch of rumors. I would love to see that, but not until after a OV-10. Hasn't it been long enough??

Woody

Yes indeed, I agree.

I have been pushing the S-3 for a while now and would LOVE to see that one come along. I bet that one would be a very scale and fun plane to fly.

[Woodcock]

I agree with you all on the Mustangs and Corsairs. They are my FAVORITES but everyone makes them. In place of the Mustang or Corsair, how about a Freewing or FMS 1600mm SBD Dauntless or TBF Avenger with folding wings?

I would go for a1600 mm B model Mustang. They fly a bit better than the D model.

So Cws, are you suggesting that if you wanted a nice P-51, that you couldn't find a Mustang, (out of the ones available in the market offered right now) that would meet with your expectations of a nice Mustang? At last count I thought there were about 8 or 9 new P-51 RC models that were added to our selection just last year. This was added to the existing 50 or 60 different ones already available. I bought the new little park flyer, well because it was a park flyer, NOT BECAUSE IT WAS A MUSTANG!!! I know they're many others available, I wanted to send a little business Motions way.

Well the Mustang Market isn't something I would lope into blindly. The reason is simply this, If I were to ever buy a really nice Mustang, it's not going to be made out of foam. Get it? My point, is if you're a P-51 Mustang Lover, and want a really nice one there are already to many other nicer options available, that a Foam model simply cannot surpass under any circumstances. FMS, (who makes really nice models) already has a 1400 & a 1700mm Mustang. You mean to tell me one of those wont do? it's got to be a 1600mm P-51?

SO with this I'll just say that if we get a 1600mm FL P-51, (Which I think is going to happen for sure pretty soon). The folks that always buy everything offered by Flightline will jump out and buy it for sure, as always. I also think it would be a nice addition to the Flightline line up. I can respect this.

But when and an a big IF I ever go for another mustang it will almost certainly be something like this.....https://www.horizonhobby.com/product...cc-arf-han4770 not a foamy. Fact is there is an awfully lot of RC flyers that think just like me.

But, we need a few more models of Mustangs and Corsairs first! ;)

[OV10]

Yeah! Where is that confounded OV10!!!! It's been a few years of posting and replies for that sweet old gal who had her field days over the skies of Southeast Asia! It's a rare bird that needs to be debuted for the better of the masses! The rare planes seem to be orphans of the corners of history. They need light and exposure...

Couldn't have expressed my frustration any better...............I've quit holding my breath for one but still wait patiently.:Straight-Face:

Actually if FL did a proper 1450-1550mm P-51D I'd be all over it. I've had three of the FMS V-8's and they are okay. But getting one with FL quality would be awesome. I have the 1200 and 1600 Spitfires. The 1200 is a tad too small and the 1600 is a tad too big, both are super nice flying.

I still would like a nice twin Mustang F or P-82.

+1. I'd love to see a 1450-1600 FL P-51D. Perfect size - easy to see when flying, big enough to handle some wind yet still fits wings on in most mid-size sedans, suvs and cuvs with rear seats folded down. I know virtually all Foamy Brands offer a P-51 (because they sell) but only FMS offers this size and none match the scale, detail and quality of FL.

Maybe a reproduction of the only "scratch built"; twin-engined; Canadian made; Avro CF100 Canuck Fighter/Interceptor. This girl had powerful, twin, Orenda engines which looked like a pair of conga drums and was flown by Commonwealth air forces. I remember reading somewhere that a few were used in America for testing and some allied flying. It's the only other offering except the torched; crunched and shredded Avro Arrow. This CF100 Canuck was built by the same dude who was Chief Engineer for the Arrow. James C. Floyd, who is still alive at the remarkable age of 104...! Maybe a twin 64mm or twin 70mm would be cool, if not frozen....

I'd go for it, or it's unsung sister, the Arrow, but a Canberra/B-57 would be nice to. But PLEASE, PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE, get these folks an OV-10 before they break out the torches and pitchforks.

[Valkpilot]

How about a 90mm 8s BD-5? That would be awesome!

That would be a BD-5J. The prop version was the BD-5

[Cws]

I believe that F 102 flying formation with it is from the 59th fighter intercepter squadron at Goose Bay Labrador, circa 1960s.
The F 102a would be an excellent model to come out with also.

[AirHead]

My mistake. Chief Engineer/Designer was John Frost! Even more fitting for a frozen Northern land mass!

A single 80mm could be possible but it would just take up fuselage space that could be better used for a large battery tray and a working rotating bomb bay.
If you look closely at the design of the fuselage you can see that it was designed so the two engine tunnels would not interfere with the volume of the fuselage. Add to that the large intakes to easily feed air to each EDF all for its self. Why not take good advantage of a good design.
I know you have a preference for 50-64mm but anything that size is viewed by many as a park flyer and it would not be as successful as at least a medium sized model with 70mm.
Even the FW ME-262 is a twin 70. I doubt a twin 64mm would had been as successful as it has been.

Well I had an Art-tech F-14 with twin 50s and it flew well until I lost it to a ramp strike, and have another that I'm debating on whether to sell or build. as my availablility to fly has been reduced in the past year..

[Dual Prop Dave]

An OV10 Bronco would really be sweet...say in a 1600mm to go with the P38 and the F7F! :Cool::)ov10ov10ov10;)

[Hardway]

F-100 would be nice!!!
