Project Foil Guesses?

[F106DeltaDart]

I’ve got 2 favorites personally, 87th FIS and B-1B Chase.

This is the other scheme I'd be happy with.

[F106DeltaDart]

Now that you mention it that looks like one sweet bird!

It certainly is :):). Man, a super scale 106 would be beyond awesome :Drooling:! Lots of possibilities for paint schemes, and an opening weapons bay would be the icing on the cake!

Now you've gone and wound DD all up. LOL

[crxmanpat]

You know, when Alpha first dropped the Project Foil name, I immediately thought F-100 like a lot of others. But the more I think on it, I get the feeling we're going to be getting a 90mm Super Scale F-106 Delta Dart with scale gear and doors, vulcan gun pod, functioning weapons bay doors, and functioning speed brake (and room enough for a drag chute mod!).




And if I'm correct, please please make one of the available schemes the Air Defense Weapons Center at Tyndall AFB.

It sounds like you need a jet that was originally designed to be able to take off rough air strips such as the SEPECAT Jaguar. And a twin 70mm setup should provide sufficient scale power. ;)

Looks interesting,Im in!

[Evoman]

I just hope its twin 80mm or large enough for 2 4s 5000mah for 8s so it can get off grass.

I have the Mig 21 and the F86 both with the inrunners ,its a crap shoot weither they will get off the runway.

So I have stayed away from the other 80mm so far.

I have the F4 on 8s which does good...I doubt the 6s would be much better than the 80mm

So please Alpha just make it big enough for good size landing gear and a power to weight ratio for grass.

Im sure there are more grass fliers than those lucky enough to have an actual runway.

Yep Rifleman,I have 3 FMS Yak 130 that I love they do great off grass,
I bought the 70mm FW F16 wouldnt get off at all.
seems some 70s will do fine,others not so much

Im suprised the 80mm have trouble. :Thinking:

[AirHead]

Yes they are, this was flown with a 4500 pack. So itll push 6 minutes with the 4500, i know some guys who get close to that with smaller packs. Its a very nice flying plane for the money

Duly noted! More research for me. Good video post. Good day....

I am one and my 70mm planes do just fine.

Wow! Awesome Man! Just wailin' and yes, very good battery time for that spirited show. Might just get one of those! Although, with all the new releases and stuff coming up, I don't know what to get. Just can't fork out the dough for everything, but I need to dial in the specifics so I can get a good buy for the money. You have once mentioned that FMS EDFs are very efficient. Looks like it.....

I know Rifleman won’t like this but again I’m hoping for a 90mm F-100 Super Sabre in camo

Ah the Red Knight! I saw his performance years ago. It was pretty cool. He took off while another act was in the air. Some time went past and the announcer was talking keeping us all distracted. He paused and then said ,"Ladies and Gentlemen, The Red Knight" BOOM, he does a low high speed pass, scared the :Poo: out of me and thousands of others who were there. I've never forgot that !

I was a kid when the Red Knights were flying in shows with the Golden Hawks. My Dad saw them a couple of times. Unfortunately, there were a few crashes and the planes were taken out of service. I have read that they were purchased and The Red Knights are still used in Reno and they open for other shows too....wow...The good Old 20th Century Days!!!!!

Jeez, never had imagined someone would mention it.You hit me right in the soft spot!

Your joking, lol. I mean, if you really have a heartfelt attachment to that project, then, it's alright. I does look like someone hired a Hollywood designer for that on though. Sort of a jet version of the GeeBee...I try not to hold anything against anyone for trying. Without that, we'd be sitting in caves wondering how to get television.....Ha!

[Petronio]

Here she is! The FX-85 Goblin....What a foil! There Ya Go!.....
