        Sweet video, Bajora, thanks for posting! Come April 9th we'll have at least twice that many in the Apollo sky. Watch that assembly video and get 'em done, boys n' girls. You'll have about two weeks before the event. Plenty of time to ogle, build, ogle, detail, and ogle again.


        My sincere thanks to everyone's support of this big twin. We're encouraged to pursue development of rarer aircraft in the future as the P-38, Sea Fury, and La-7's momentum grows.

            PlaneCrazy and rtwakins...It would simply be a disservice if we don't somehow meet up for a P-38 fly in at some point! :)

                    Can't see the vid either. Click on it and it disappears. (See pic). Must be a iPad thing. Grats boys, can't wait to see some photos/builds/flight reports and vids.... Don't forget the vids. ;)

                                    Hey MotionRC folks! about when, do you think, that you'll have parts in for these? I have a feeling this plane will be better then my F4U as a camera platform, but I'd want to have a second canopy to mount the camera and/or FPV equipment on...
