Originally posted by Alpha.MotionRC View PostThanks for keeping this bird under wraps, RCjetdude, I know it wasn't easy. And thanks for all your skillful work, too! You're right, this aircraft is really a "Detailer's Delight". Customizers like you and Brandon Moon and TiredIronGRB and others will have fun with the possibilities this bird's large palette provides. Might I recommend after your current slew of customizations, to also consider fabricating the adapter rail for the AGM-65s. Were you going to do TERs as well?
And in case anyone was wondering, RCjetdude was one of the first pilots to pre-order and he paid in full, so his A-10 discussed here is not a sponsored build --it's entirely his aircraft, his thoughts, his feedback as a paying customer. We've asked him as we've asked all our customer review partners to be thorough and objective. I for one know I'm very excited to try some of these mods when my production A-10 arrives (which is long after all of you receive yours!).
Now, finish up that cannon! BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

I did the Red Devils. The pitchfork was a little sketchy. The font on the "no step" labels was bigger but I used them. There was not any of the mechanical labels. The ejection seat warning label was actually smaller.
I used a combo of both sets. Naval aircraft are much more colorful. Just saying.Currently flying: Twin 80mm A-10, 80mm F5, 80mm A6, 70mm Yak-130, 70mm F-16v2,90mm Stinger 90, 70mmRC Lander F9F, Flightline F7F TigerCat, Phoenix 46 size Tucano, Flyzone L-39
Out of Service: 80mm Mig-21,64mm F-35, 64mm F/A-18
I Want: 80mm A-4, twin 80mm F4J Phantom

Sounds good. I am curious to see how the Oleos look on it. Will you be also trying to add some main gear doors then as well?

Hey Steve, when is the next installment on the canopy raising system? Looking forward to your next piece of wizardry as well as input from my previous questions on the same. Mine is supposed to arrive today, very exciting! I also ordered an extra canopy and canopy hatch so I could play with that while still flying the stock bird. Brad
