      FINALLY SOMETHING ACTUALLY NEW!!!! Not my cup of tea, but glad to see something that isn't a V2 or different paint jobs.

        Bravo Zulu, MotionRC! Lot's of livery options, obviously. A great decision to add to an already superb product line. Congrats. Best, LB

          Great design/illustrations! I will be rocking the stock scheme for awhile (I have a personal investment in it, lol) but when I am ready I am going to turn her into this livery:

            I’m going Fedex for sure. But I’m wondering who’s going to mod revers thruster.

              These will more than likely be my liveries, even though non of my planes were actually Maxes. It would be nice to have Wing Tip, and Nacelle options. But if need be I'll just live with the ones that come with it.

                Wrong plane, but I would so love to do the Iron Maiden "Ed Force One" scheme on this...

                      Agreed...Would be very cool to have winglet options at least...But I suspect there will be 3DPup versions eventually, along with all kinds of other goodies for this big bird.

                        This is the natural way to ship them with people wanting to do so many different schemes.

                          Yep, the beauty is that it comes with just the tail decal pre-installed but we will be offering a plain white tail spare part too for those who don't want to mess with a pre-existing tail decal. This one is going to be a modder's dream.

                            And I LOVE that it's just one 6S battery to power this Goliath! Looking forward to the flight video(s)! Imagine how ridiculously scale this girl is going to look, especially in low wind conditions coming in fully dirty on the approach. Sign me up!

                              Would be cool to do an actual functioning service ship as opposed to a passenger bus. Great vis as well.

                                  So how much do we all think it's going to cost ?

                                  I'll start the guessing at $499.

                                      The Freewing SU-35 has the same powertrain and goes for $395.00 US. It has a slightly higher level of complexity (TV) and is able to fly crazy stunts if so desired, but it's getting long in the tooth.

                                        I was surprized to see how much airplane fit in that small of a box. Makes one think that a good sized B-29 is doable.

                                        It wouldn't take much to transform this into a "KC-?? air refueling tanker" version.

                                          I like the way you think and pretty simple livery to boot. Although, the KC-46A Pegasus is based on a Boeing 767 airframe. Best LB
