"Simply part the existing foam seam to remove the stock nozzle, then glue in the Set and route the wires for the four servos."

Mid month is less than 2 weeks so if it was going to be available with the plane its time. Plus we have seen a picture of the Gripens in James' had and it's not due until the end of next month.
Pat, I saw that but there is the forward area at the fan opening and around the top at the tail cone to consider too. I'm just anxious, I've asked the same question since day one. When, how and price. When I said part foam and part plastic I was talking about the TV assembly itself.
Edit, the Gripen assembly looks well made from foam and molded parts. Alpha said the MiG's was 3D printed. Significant differences in description.

I will assume detailed info on that will be produced (some sort of manual/how to) when the release gets closer.

Hey pilots! Customer Service Team member Andrew here. I wanted to dump some photos of the MiG-29 meeting the F-14 Tomcat last night. I tried to capture some good angles comparing the two. The MiG-29 has a ton of lifting body surface vs the venerable F-14 Tomcat. It feels a bit more stout when picking it up and moving it around. Static thrust run-ups reveal the MiG has loads of power. I've never felt an EDF push that hard against my hand.

The ETA for your preorder is whatever the ETA was on the day that you placed your preorder. So, for anyone placing their preorder as of today, their ETA is what is showing on the website as of today ("Early October"). Back when you pre-ordered on Aug 27, the ETA on the website was "mid-September", so that's the only ETA you need to watch for.
Our system is updated in near real-time, and given the tremendous popularity of the MiG-29, we have extended access beyond the initial "Mid-September" supply to the next inbound supply of aircraft whose ETA is currently "Early October". At this rate, they won't last very long either, at which point the next ETA is probably going to be late November if not December.
Basically, for anyone on the fence, I wouldn't recommend waiting too much longer if you definitely want to fly a MiG-29 before Christmas. Of course, we'll try to produce and ship and receive a third shipment to arrive before then, but these first wave of shipments were supposed to last us until Christmas and they're almost gone already!

So I noticed in one of the videos that I looked at in this Thread, the MiG 29 apparently came with the tiger decals on the tail as soon as he opened the box. Well, I was actually planning on doing some painting anyway
Just recently I ordered 2 sets of Russian decals For this project. This is going to look very sweet when I’m done with it

As for decals, Callie has sets for a couple of Russian birds that would work on the Mig-29. Just order in 1/9 scale.

same site, Motion rc, using the ones from the MiG-21 and the L-39. I just got them on Monday along with a replacement vertical stab for the Mig-21 that it needed for like a month. 2020 is the year of me getting more Russian Birds. Idk why. I got the Eflite SU-30, the MiG-21, 30mm edf MiG-29, UMX MIG-15, I JUST ORDERED THE MIG-29 FROM MOTION RC and I’m planning on ordering The blitz rc works SU-47 and the free wing SU-35.
they make the majority of my fleet of 14 aircraft I own. Including the eflite 1.5 P-51 which I’m struggling with tail slides from the motor torque on the ground
