I could totally dig a Gustav in the same scale! A long nose 190 would fit the bill as well... 😋Fly low, fly fast, turn leftComment

Agreed! I've been hoping to see an X-22 for a while! One of the few VTOL configurations that can be done easily and affordably at an RC scale.Comment

I'm on board with the B1 Lancer because it would have a much broader flight envelope than the SR-71. Much like the real aircraft a flying model of the SR-71 would only do one thing well, fly straight. It wouldn't turn in a pattern well the landing would be very tough with scale gear, very flat.
I love the real plane, it's looks, it's performance and it's legacy, just don't think it transfers well to a model.Comment

There is a guy that makes both of them in composite. They look awesome except for the gear which is always expected not to be scale and they fly really well but they also come with a hefty price tag.

Cool find! I didn't even know there were composite Blackbird and Bone ARFs out there in the 70-90mm EDF range. Yeah, price is out of my budget by the time I bought everything I needed, but they both would be sweet! Would LOVE to see Freewing release both of these models. I've flown the LX SR-71 so many times (and yes gone through many airframes too) I am quite confident a Freewing version with our guidance would be a fantastic model. Its flight characteristics are not for everyone, that's for sure, but for a Habu Nut like me, I would be ALL over it!There is a guy that makes both of them in composite.

I remember that album. Along with King Crimson and Camel. Yes, those were the days...

Actually, in my case it's more than just that. I've seen the pictures and videos you folks post. Most of your fields are like flying from an Air Force base. Mines more like a carrier.Comment

I’d love to see a B-25. Lovely looking aircraft and a decent sized model would have real presence in the air.
A decent sized P-40 would be great too. The Dynam model looked great but was slightly small and whilst the FMS P-40 looks ok I prefer the deeper chin scoop...Comment

I have found that a properly balanced SR-71 model flies well. I have lots of flights on an LX SR-71 and a Hobbylab SR-71. We are flying them at very light wing loadings and they do fine in the pattern.

In fact, a scale SR-71 flies well enough to win in Designer class at Top Gun. The essence of the SR-71 certainly transferred well to this model.
Magnificent.Comment
