I would have preferred a 90mm size as well, I'm guessing price point was the major decision maker here. Regardless this was one of my top choices to be produced by Freewing and am very happy that it will be available soon. I'm down for 1 possibly 2.

I'm more of a prop jock for the warbirds but this one just got me. 6 months ago I was going to do an L-39 in a BA livery but couldn't pull the trigger cause it was just a "fake" livery.
No need to worry about that now with the Blue Angels using the T-33 from 52-54. It looks like the gear is even MORE suitable for grass ops than the L-39 too.
Ya swung me back Alpha, back to the dark side of half the flight times of the prop jobs again.

Yeah, I like the direction it is going. Now I would just like to see them replace all the current 80mm jets that have outrunner's with inrunners as some have already been updated, but with 12 blade fans (which I still like). Update the F14 with these new 9 blade fans with inrunners (and 100A ESC's), update the 80mm A-10 with them, etc.
L39 or F5 will be my next from MRC and it will certainly be the inrunner version of whichever.

Questions:
What is the EDF shroud made out of, metal or plastic? If plastic, is it using the same shroud as the A-10 EDF's, or is it made from a harder and less flexible GRP (preferred)?
I couldn't tell just by watching the video.
