The new paint scheme is significantly better :Cool:, monstrously better actually. Paint schemes help sell model aircraft and this is what many have waited for. Massive thumbs up to Freewing and Motion RC for coming through after listening to requests.

I had the opportunity to see this in person at TIA and was very impressed with the paint scheme but more importantly the level of detail in the graphics. Even the wing pylons had graphics on them. It just looked beautiful! I am thinking of getting one for my son Enoch when he hits one year of the daily flight challenge. He has already dropped a hint with his approval of it. The L-39 is such a good flyer and now it is drop dead gorgeous to boot.

In stock and ready to ship from both our US and EU warehouses. No pre-order on this bird. We kept this as a surprise until it was on the shelves since it's technically a Repaint and not a new release. Enjoy!
And seriously, thank you for your support, "|o?woohoo"
If so, will those painted parts be available for as long as the L-39 is in production?Planes

Glad you like it, Radar-Guy! The L-39 was a monstrous hit for us, and we received many requests from both European and Stateside customers for this "Russian Camo" color scheme, so we decided to make it happen. It is unique enough from the Air Show demo scheme which was intended to highlight the sport/civil/acro use of the Albatros, and now with this new scheme we can contrast that with its military trainer heritage. The toughest part was translating all of those decals, AGAIN, to yet a different language. First it was Romanian text all over the airplane, now it's Russian. Thanks to those who helped us with the translation!
I would have purchased this one..... but I can only have one of these jets. Love the way the L39 fly's .
Thank you for these wonderful models and keep up the good work.
All the best
Rich
