Official Freewing 90mm Ares 3D EDF Jet Thread

Bitterness? None here. (Yeah, I know, I'm used to that Brit humor, having worked 1/2 my life with many visiting scientists from your side of the "pond".) I "could" have gotten one via AliExpress by now but some of those sellers use dubious selling and shipping methods. Since I have 50+ RC models to fly at any given time, I'm not in a hurry either. In fact, I'm in the process of updating and upgrading my old SebArt MiG-29 3D jet. You could also get one from a seller on AliEx and I could always hit the buy button on MotionRC, but due to the tariff that MRC has paid on their stuff imported into the US from China, it's cheaper for us to buy from sources like RC Castle, who will have it around the end of this month. Winter, I hope, is at least 2 months away, so there is a chance I can still fly a new plane before the snow flies. If I can do the "catch and release" method for the Ares, I'll fly it all winter long (which is usually reserved for float planes and other VTOLs).

No I meant bitterness on my part due to the wait.

Haha! I've lost my edge in figuring out how you folks express yourselves.

Yep, self deprecating humour. Allows one to kick off whilst pointing the finger at ones self. I've always thought our peoples get on well, distant cousins if you will with many shared values. Just keep religion and politics out and we're good.
