So... What's next? We need some new military muscle for us EDF junkies! : )

[HellHathNoFury]

Still waiting for that 80 or 90mm lightweight F-18C..;)

[Alpha10]

A nice L-39 or 59 would be great .. 10s would be possible..:).. I had 10s on the HTG model & it rocked..:)

I hear that... Or a hot 8s capable 80mm F100!

Yeah buddy!

[HellHathNoFury]

A hot 8s capable 80mm jet would ROCK!

How about this. Imagine a giant foam B-52... with EIGHT 50 mm fans. (I'm figuring a 3000mm wingspan, 9.8 feet, roughly 1/19 scale)

Sure it would need four 4000mah batteries, but this plane could haul them without a problem. Stick in two working bomb bays and you could drop two 12oz water balloons or anything you want!
Fowler flaps. And retractable rotating main gear. And a parachute! :Love:

This would be absolutely incredible and unique and a hell of a lot of fun.
The fuse would be 8 feet long! So detach the tail.
I volunteer to test fly it (Pilot Ryan is busy).

Or - quite a bit simpler, but a very cool subject would be a big AVRO Vulcan. That could fly on twin 80's without an issue.


OK guys - go through this thread and "like" the suggestions that you would like to see come true. Then the MRC guys can see which ones we like best!

[Alpha10]

if I could get a 80 8s set up in my mig 21 I would like flying it more than I do now it just does not have the power I want and might need in a emergency!

You could absolutely run 8s in the Mig... My friend's running a hot 8s setup in his!

I just hate the way it looks, but... A lot of guys like it!

Get the popcorn. Lots of possible jets projects here.

[TSHobbies]

I would love an A-7 ... and btw ,there was some good F-8 footage in the Final Countdown too

[jetlag]

A twin 90mm Mig 29, 70" plus length
Or 105mm..... I have the new HSD F16 and its a little expensive but the oil filled landing gear and brakes are nice. Im a freewing motion fan till the end but HSD has some great ideas I would hope Motion/Freewing integrate into their product line

As long as we are fantasizing, how a nice 80 or 90mm F-106 or for something fast that is still designed for rough runways a Mig-25 or an F-3 Tornado.

A big plus one on the "Six" :):). Would love to see a nice 80mm F-100 as a follow on to the F-86 as well. Also, the F-22 and F-35 are musts sometime soon. I toured the F-35 production line today and got fly in the simulator. Was definitely one of the coolest things that I have seen, the assembly building alone is a full mile long! Really would love one done properly in 80-90mm.

Thanks Evoman. Makes me want to smoke a cigar...

For you F-8 Crusader fans here is the only scene in a movie that I can think of that depicts F-8's in action flying a reconnaissance mission over Cuba during the Cuban missile crises from the movie Thirteen days.
I highly recommend watching this movie sometime.

[Enterprise206]

kenelder,

I would second an F-8 with tilt wing and scale gear. Make it in a 105mm flavor... on 14s power!!

S3 Viking twin 90mm, just because its rare and would fly great just like the 80mm twin A-10. 80ish in wingspan.. or whatever to get the nacelles scaled correctly.

My actual want would be for a P-3 Orion. Say 2+ meters on 4 x 6s 5000mah - optimized for long flights like the real one! // SORRY NOT AN EDF, but would be cool

You dont want a F-8 Crusader to be too big with all the bells and whistles. that might equal to a BIG price tag. maybe in the 400 - 500$ range would be a good price point. and have them make it to where u can add features in the upgrades list.

[Enterprise206]

Yea a single 90 mm T-33 or the crusader to set with my A-6 that would be cool.

Hobbyking has a 90mm T-33 in the Thunderbirds scheme. and i think RCLander has one as well.

[Westsider]

F-8 Crusader!

+1. way cool.

[Evoman]

For a single EDF setup I am going to stick to jets that are originally single engine.

1.AJS Viggen
2.A-7 Corsair II/ Crasador
3. Rafale
4. Fiat G91

My top choice going to the Sabb AJS Viggen because it would not only offer unique flight dynamics that would not only make it easy to fly for first time EDF pilots but also offer seasoned pilots unparalleled capabilities. It's unique design of a delta wing with canards acted as a vortex generator producing more lift.
The canard flaps when deployed in conjunction with the landing gear provided even more lift for takeoff and landings. Another unique feature was that it had a thrust reverser! Can you imagine a thrust reverser on an EDF Jet! It would not only allow for landings on any short run way but you could actually back it it up!

Conclusion: Easy to fly, more lift at all speeds, can operate on short runways and it can be revered.

EPO FA-18 , upgraded landing gear mounts, 90mm, without the thrust vectoring for me.
