    One of the nice things about the Hunter (in addition to looking really cool) is that the proportions are just about perfect for an aerobatic RC model and the engineering is straightforward.

With the 64mm jets yank n bank seems to work well. These little guys are easier on the wallet and work better for small fields,saves hanger space 2. The F-100 would make a nice addition, not really allot out there and shes a looker.
    I would love a nice F-100 or even a F-106!

    IMO, a model EDF of a real jet may not necessarily fly like the real thing. Take the F-117 for example. It requires a bank of over a dozen computers just to fly correctly and yet, I've seen several foamboard models of the F-117 the fly adequately well with no rudder and no stabilizers. Most, if not all "newbs" have a hard time incorporating rudder anyway and they "bank and yank" as they start their journey into this hobby. Add to this, the new generation of high kv, bank and yank 64mm EDFs that cost less than $100.00 and can be flown "slowish" or fast and a newb would be set to go for his/her first foray into EDF-land. Look at the new 64mm F-105 Thunderchief. Having no rudder is not really a handicap for a newb, whether it be a prop or EDF.
    The F9 Crusader falls into that category as well, as do I as a noob. I could use a new one, but i haven't committed the $139 for one yet and my first one still flies great, but she is / was a lesson in set-up and flying. It is a good one for anyone new getting in... if they have the balls...

    Just my $.02 worth. After all of the blowback they received when the announced the A-10 early and even made gear changes for us, they will not repeat that mistake again. I like everyone else would love a twin F4 Phantom. It would remind me so much of my dad when I was younger. But if you have noticed, the last planes have all be announced just when they could be pre-ordered. The community blew it when they blew back on MotionRC when they were trying to transparent with their models.

    A 64-70mm F-100 might be the ideal size for nubie EDF pilots that just have to have one with out potentially being a hand full to learn to fly if it was super scale. The F-100 was one of those jets that could kill you if you did not know how to fly it.
    Check out this great interview with former F-100 Super Saber pilots that got a chance to fly the Hun again. What got my attention was what one of them said at 2:40 about how it took special skills to fly the F-100.
    After watching this video again it made realize that a 64mm F-100 without rudder control might be a bad idea. :Confused:
    So this goes out to those that wish there was an RC F-100 so they are aware of what they would be getting them selves into if there was one. ;)


    I own the Flyfly version of this jet, I have not flown it yet since it's not 100% completed- still needs flaps installed or I can build it without flaps...
