    They are back on sale at RC Castle. I'm sure Motion won't be far behind.
    The only difference I can see is the note about the "new" 23g servos for the elevators already installed.

        Umm.....

        Any idea on what changes? I'm definitely wanting to get another one and do it myself from the ground up. I'm really digging this one, but someone else built it.

                        Another good indicator is that there aren’t any parts “out of stock” on MRC’s site either.

                          Capt Jackson, love the work you've done on all your aircraft. The A-10 is outstanding (saw your build video on that a while ago) and of course the Mig is something that left me speechless earlier this year! And not to be forgotten, the Avanti is something that FW should have copied as their stock livery long ago and it would have sold like hot cakes (not that it hasn't already). I know the Mig in the background is your "practice" bird, but can you really take a stock aircraft out to the field without giving it the refined Jackson Reaction? That's like Enzo Ferrari driving around in a Kia Sol!

                                    It's back in stock in the US. No mention on the product page of any changes made. I thoughts some insiders here said changes were coming.

                                    Regardless, my original one is still going strong.

                                        It still lists 17g elevator servos:

                                        "17g digital metal gear standard with 100mm lead: left elevator, right elevator."

                                          Still curious where you’re getting your insider information from a “reliable” source? So far, it hasn’t been correct. May want to not rely on that source too much from now on.

                                          I’m not trying to be mean in anyway by saying this, and I hope it’s not coming across that way. Just that reliable information should be correct information.
