    I know first-hand the work that went into the development for this gorgeous bird...I cannot wait to get my hands on her!  It's rare that I don't have some re-paint/scale work to do when I get a new foam warbird and this looks like it will be one of those rare times.  Anyone else chompin' at the bit?

        I have been, ever since I heard the new Yak was such a toad. Still don't see anything about it on MRC's site tho, so haven't checked the specs & makeup et al. Trying to decide what to spend the Yak money on, instead.

          Do they have a price tag, yet? and what types they'll be selling (PNP/ARF/KIT)?

            Hello Pilots, That F-16 is calling my name almost! I can't wait to see this one fly, I hope it's right up there with all of my Free-wing experiences. In the Airframe department, they sure do a great job with detail work and flight characteristics of their products. I haven't had a bad flyer yet! Well, the last I heard, it will be out in December. I have no idea on the cost, I just hope it's like the current models and; I'm sure quality is fine. If anyone hears anything "do tell".

            Cheers! Matt

                Greetings Guys,

                Like everyone else, I'd love to get a hold of this bird.
                To be honest, I think it's just a notch above my current skill sets.

                I have no issues with Freewings F-86 or A6, but for some reason this bad boy just gives me pause.

                Probably just over thinking it.

                  Hey Rocketeer,

                  I saw in your post that you have the Freewing F86. I assume this is the 80mm one, and not the smaller 64mm EDF? How do you like that one? Sure is a sweet looking plane. BTW-I did take your advice, and showed that Top RC FW190 to my wife and mentioned Christmas wish. Well, not only did she order that one for me, but also that 1400mm Super Decathalon that they carry! But like you guys, I am not allowed to play with them until after Christmas! :D

                    Greetings Loneflier,

                    WOW! You Scored big time!!!
                    You're going to like the Top RC FW-190.

                    For sure the F-86 is the 80mm version.
                    It is simply an awesome aircraft. It flies increadibly smooth and is quite impressive on low-level high speed passes as the multi-blade impellor really captures that turbine sound.

                    Won't be long now!!



                    As of this post.......

                            F-16 with thrust vectoring is fantastic plane.

                              Our container shipment for the F-16, F-5, and Super Scorpion is being unloaded today in Illinois, and all pre-orders for those three aircraft will be shipped by the end of today.

                              Even with the west coast port madness, we're ahead of the mid March arrival date as originally projected, which is nice.

                              I look forward to everyone's flight reports!

                                        I think both are in stock.  At least I know the model is in because I am ordering one now.

                                        I just placed my order.  Better order now if you want one.  They generally go very fast.
