Does Motion RC have any plans of bringing in the new FMS 1400MM P40B?

Yes, we are still on target to receive it in early December. We will be setting up a pre order any day.

Good for you :D . I was all ready to buy and I really want it, but now I'm hearing word of a new improved T-28 with the same level of improvements in January and now I'm torn between the two. This is actually the kind of "problem" I enjoy. :P

The T-28 V4 has very marginal and small changes. None of them would sway me personally. They are nice changes and necessary changes but nothing earth shattering. Changes are as follows:

1. front landing gear has some form of a shock absorber (don't know details yet)
2. Same motor as the new 1400mm P-40B
3. New slightly lighter lower density foam
4. New servo box for easy servo swaps
5. New battery board
6. New Ball link connectors and control horn design
7. The rudder servo and elevator servo have been moved to the back of the fuselage for less slop in the movement
8. The Front scale cowl flaps will be removed (too bad, these are great)

Thanks for the reply Tom. To me some of those changes seem more than small changes and I also heard the main gear would get improved. Another factor for me is the end of the flying season is upon us where I live so no real rush to get anything right now (fair weather flyer ). I'll probably be mad at myself if I don't get it when everybody starts showing theirs in December :rolleyes: . I'm sure I'll have one of them though before the spring thaw ;) .

Thanks again

RE: FMS 1400MM P40B

After having just gone through upgrading BBD with 17g metal servos, ball link connectors, 85A ESC and a 580KV motor, I can see a small increase in the price of this plane to cover all this.  Plus the pre order incentives are nice as well.
Looks like a winner!!
