  • My guess is F-22. When this plane came out, it foiled everything with it's stealth design. . It's still the best fighter jet to come along-ever. Pricey but effective. . Since there are many small versions including the FW 64mm, I'm hopeful that they introduce a big super scale 90mm version. I don't see any of those around.

    • I would be very much okay with this. I'd imagine this would be a hot ticket item for a long time.

            That would be awesome, and would make a lot of since. We know it’s been in the works for a long time, and an F-22 would be explain it. An F-22 is expected to have it all. Clean lines with scale retracts/doors, 1 to 1thrust to weight, and thrust vectoring. Would really be awesome to see a big Raptor get the Alpha treatment!

                  • I also don't want to be cheap but I do recognize that some airplanes like the A-10 and F-4 had to be done right even if it came at a cost. But I do understand that there is a need for more airplanes at the mid level of $200-300.
                    I am personally not interested in the cheap $98 EDFs and I am not that great of a pilot yet to risk crashing $400+ airplanes. So the mid level airplanes are the sweet spot for me and many others.
                    But I am glad that big planes like the 90mm F-4 Phantom exist because it gives me something to look forward to moving up to when I feel I am ready.

                      • My bet is Alpha will keep the mix of 64's,70's, 80's and 90's vibrant and interesting so there's something for everyone's taste and budget. I like each one of them for what they are, how they perform. how they look and how they were designed..

                          While I personalty have no use small EDF's I understand why some do. I think Motions done a great job taking care of everyone.
