            Hey, where is the Marine version? It's OK, I'll have Callie produce these graphics. Thank you for bringing out such fine EDF jets - they just keep getting better! MotionRC is my go-to hobby shop!

                    Ha, Hardway, buying both would be nice, but no pressure. LOL


                    I'd reiterate that the existing weapon sets we have for models like the 90mm F-16 are within the scale range of the 90mm F-18. It's one of the reasons why the F-18 is dimensions it is. AIM-9s are a nice touch, that's how I've been flying mine here at the factory. It's getting special treatment..

                        Excellent! After getting to see James fly the BA in Dalton, GA this past weekend I am super stoked for one. It is a very impressive bird. The gray will be a perfect blank canvas for so many cool liveries.

                          So True !! Getting the Colors and Graphics exactly where they should be will be Soooooooo much easier on this Gray Jet !! Very exciting indeed. I'll be getting x2 of them.

                                        With so many potential schemes planned, would it be possible for Motion to send her an air frame for her to get more precise measurements when needed? It would be especially helpful for those graphics that span an entire portion of the aircraft.
