However I am not sure about a 90mm anymore because they typically seem to have shorter flight times.

Twin 80mm F-18F would be pretty sweet! SEAVIPER what squadrons were you with? (if you don't mind me asking)

A T2 Buckeye would be good, but I am hoping on a single 70mm fan 6s T-38. I already know the F4 Phantom is coming. I can feel it

He said a dude going by Alpha called him a while back for details on the Marine F-4, and was talking about two schemes. Could it be true?!? Are we really going to get a big twin F4 super scale? And with Christmas coming, oh boy.
There ya go, rumor started.

I asked alpha if that was his real name and he said yes his given name

I would hope "Alpha" wouldn't willingly go by the name Alpha when talking to retired members of service, or anyone for that matter. Although I hope every bit of this is true and we get a super scale F4 coming our way, as I will pre-order the crap out of that thing. I don't care if I can't fly it for a year!

Ya, they are even making them wet turbine ready. Not for me-Yet. But one can now cross over into the turbine world for less than would expect.

Originally posted by Having Fun View PostThe company that is sneaking up on MotionRC is HSD. They apparently have had it with their US distribution resellers. They are opening their own warehouse in California starting in November. They are stocking all their planes and replacement parts there. Their website is HSDgo.com I ordered a replacement servo and got it from them in three days because the warehouse is up but the website is not quite ready. The reason I bring this up is they make very good large scale jets and now they have the parts. I have an HSD V2 F-16 12s in the TB scheme and it's a great machine to fly and very rugged on grass take offs and landings. I have the Freewing 80mm A-10 and it is a fantastic bird to fly. Competition is good for all of us. I would like to see Freewing, through MotionRC, get some of these larger twin 80 or 90 mm F-18s or F-4s and others. I can't get excited about 25 different versions of a 70mm jet, they all get to look and behave the same after a short time. When you get into these larger scale birds, it's a trip. Most of us out here would love to grab hold of a large twin 80mm jet the size of the A-10. Every time I fly one of those big birds it feels great and I am challenged to fly something bigger and faster.
MotionRC is the best! I just don't want them to miss out on an opportunity. HSD is not bringing those large scale planes to the US because they think it is a very limited market for planes that size.
GO MOTIONRC!
