Not bad , 18 pages BEFORE the release!
The A-10 is sitting at 360 plus pages, I can see this one eclipsing that.....
(The official page I mean)

Page count isn't an accurate measure Gman because the amount of posts per page is a variable that you determine in your settings.
The total count of 357 posts(including yours) in this thread covers 36 pages for me.;)
The A-10 thread has(last post by me) 7397 posts which encompasses 740 pages for me.:Scared:

It's the number of posts that will set the mark.
This thread was interestingly started 18 months ago.:Whew:

If they would just make the darn thing, they can close down this thread and save some cloud space!

Stealth Fighter......................??

Lotta people are chirping about a F-100 among other jets, but I'm cautiously optimistic that Project Foil is the much anticipated F4. F22 might be pretty cool, but either way I'm hoping it's super scale type model for the folks who seem to be chomping at the bit.

I think if MRC & FW bring a F-4 to the market, they will bring a super scale version. I love the f-4. I almost broke down and boughr an lx f-4, but decided to wait to see if MRC would bring one. I have the 90 f-16, I love it but i have rough landings. (I misjudge the distance on final, so i end up on the grass. :(..) i fly the 1700mm corsair and mustang and I think size difference messes with me. Keep this post alive! SEMPER FI Dragongunner!

Ha you bet! Back at you! I recently passed up an Elite F4 all the trimmings with TAM jets struts wheels and brakes... for 450$. UGH.....Should have bit!! Our field is 800X50 of Tarmac.

Agreed! Some of the conversations on RCG are off the hook immature. This is supposed to be fun! :-)

[DrDeath]

The belly aching about the gears was crazy on RCG both before and after the release...some are just never satisfied.

TiredIronGRB,

You said it correctly, some (not saying anyone in this discussion) but those who were belly aching when the A-10 hit the beach here in the US were not satisfied.

[DrDeath]

DrD.............Kinda interesting that you perceived that MRC endured a bunch of belly aching.

My personal opinion of the inputs on the A-10 fall in line with Patrnflyr.
As matter of fact, even though the trailing link main gear was against the scale enthusiasts it ironically looks like the scale scissor link oleo is going to be the resolve to the bucking bronco scenario.

OV10,

The griping wasn't just about the gear, it was about EVERYTHING. People gripped about the gear, they gripped about the price, they gripped about the free armament given, they gripped about having to put all of the decals on (people asked for a clean airframe to paint), they gripped about how long it took to get the plane, they gripped that they were not in the first run, they gripped about not being in the second batch, they gripped about the "bucking bronco" and they just gripped about everything. I could go on and on about what people gripped about. People were amazing.

The bronco affect could be eliminated by keeping air speed up upon landing and frankly, people learning how to land EDFs. I have seen full scale planes on YouTube get into that oscillation by not keeping their speed up. Have I had the bronco affect, yes, a couple of times out of my 50 plus flights. It was all because of pilot error, I broke the gear mount. It was MY fault for a crappy landing. The front gear change was by the request of we the flyers, we shouldn't have crucified Motion RC and Freewing for honoring our requests the way the groups did back in June and July.
