    Looking forward to this one for sure! Love seeing full gear doors, and the scale outline is excellent! Much better than the old flyfly or the HSD. Will be painting mine up in an 87th FIS scheme.

        Is the nose section plastic capped?

                Excellent, thanks. The retracts look stout for a model this size, which is great also.

                        - You finally gave us a 9 blade fan WITH an inrunner. Thank you
                        - Servo pockets and covers
                        - Full gear doors.....again, thank you
                        - Two color schemes available soon and not waiting. The German scheme is very nice, and doesn't have any black paint on foam (but hard to tell and I'm not sure if the nose is plastic capped) like the US scheme (the black paint on EPO ends up "gatoring" in the sun in short manner, so I stay away from those liveries now)
                        That new power system is one of the things I am most excited about. All of FW's new inrunner EDFs have been really impressive and I am happy to see they are still designing/producing more options. With this being a 9blade 1920kv inrunner, it should make for some great speed and power!

                              I've been wanting a T-33 for years and Motion has made it happen! Bravo! Once I see the preorder page go up I'll be all over it.

                                      flazz We're putting the pages up at the end of the day with complete information. ETA is about a week for US, and we're checking on the EU ETA. It's 3am on Saturday morning here in China, though, so the shippers are asleep.

                                        I like, just wish they had made this a bit bigger with a 90mm system. My L-39 gets small fast in the air. I kinda wish they had done the Thunderbirds as well.

                                          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.
