Hey guys, I know this is not something for our A-10's but I just saw this for EDF models of aircraft with after burners!! Check it out!! Rob

Definitely awesome - brilliant idea and implementation by Chris. Will definitely get a few of those for my afterburner EDFs

Yea, I'll definitely be willing to print a few sets at a reasonable price for people to offset the time/money spent on these upgrade parts. From the looks of the F4 thread, they are using that plane as a start for 3d printed interior parts to help against gatoring and add more detail. Not sure what extent and timeline they plan to go back to the current product line to do the same.

So I seemed to have some something right, because the frame is pretty close to the correct shape. Two more iterations and I think I should have a proper fit. my printer seems to have freaked out around the thin sections, so I'll have to do some changes to fix that.

That is very cool, as downwindleg suggested I think a few people would be very happy to pay for your time to print a copy, myself included. :Cool:

I just got my e-mail about the oleos at 9:38 pm. I ordered them but I wonder how they send out their e-mails. I see by some of the times that a few of you got e-mails earlier.

[OV10]

Got home from band rehearsal and there was the oleo main strut email. Only 6 pairs left.............now there are 5. :)

[Porkster]

1 set left!

[T-CAT]

Wow, those sold out fast. Ha-ha

[Hardway]

:Sweating:I ordered at 2004 CT and got the same result. No email from MRC. The server must be smoking!! I think we are OK though!

[RCjetdude]

There's more coming shortly.

I meant to say “thank you!” for the heads-up on the new gear! My email didn’t come thru until 2039. :Cool:

[Porkster]

I was really lucky, for some reason I woke up at 0300 local and there was the tablet showing the email notification, I have it on do not disturb during the night so I didn't wake because of any noise etc. Must have been subconsciously aware!
Anyway hopefully a set on it's way to me :)

[Phatbob]

I ordered two !!

[john2kx]

I just received notification that new nose gear is in stock .

[Porkster]

I ordered two !!

I don't understand why you'd do that?
we don't know if it'll solve the bounce issue and we don't know how scale they'll look.
you could have bought a set, evaluated them, then got another if you liked them so much on the second round? Please tell me you have two A10's, otherwise I think it's a little unfair on those who really wanted a set and were having landing issues who have now missed out?
