A-26

[olwarbirds]

Definately one that needs to eventually be done. Alot of variants, but would be easy to do a base version and let us modellers do the rest. With the obvious popularity of twins, I think this one would be a big hit.

I am so in the same game stands rooting as you olWB. The only model of this being made is by VQ and have been trying to get one for almost 2 years but to no avail.

I know that the new FlightLine could easily do this in a 1700mm, after all LX paved the way on the 2000mm B-25 showing how strong foam is at this size.

I have seen that VQ in action and its not bad, but I know that Motion with Flightline could do one that would put the VQ to shame. I am with you 1600-1700mm would be fine with me. I helped a buddy of mine do a scratchbuild probably 20 yrs ago or so that made it into a mag because it did so well in competition. I have always wanted one for myself. I like my FMS B-25, but I would put the A-26 right in my favs with the P-38 and P-61. Being an attack bomber puts it into a class all its own... DJ

I have the LX B25,and will soon have the FL P38...the B26 at the same scale would be a perfect fit!

A 1600-1700mm A-26 with magnetic swap nose section for bomber or ground attack version !

[crxmanpat]

I like the idea of a magnetic nose so you can swap versions. Magnetic wingtip tanks would be great too!

Yes, PLEASE!

Where do I send the check?

The large vertical tail might give us some issues with spiral instability, but I can live with that.

All the best,

A 1/10 scale A-26 would be 2133mm in wingspan... awesome, but unlikely :(


Although, I do love the idea of a convertible nosecone on a [hypothetical] smaller A-26

AW c'mon Alpha, no hypothetics about the smaller scale. FlightLine CAN DO a 1750mm that as olwarbirds said would shame the VQ version.

Is the 1/10th or there about scale a defining feature of the "FlightLine" brand?

[Alpha]

1/10th scale isn't a standard for Flightline, no, but keeping certain generations of new planes within a similar scale makes sense to me, if the variation between final models is not significantly jarring. It's nice to have at least one or two other planes with which a model shares the same scale.

For comparative reference, the Freewing 1600mm B-17 is 1/20 scale.

[olwarbirds]

For me the only Scale I want is the appearance. Size 1500mm and up. Look how nice the FMS B-25 is for its size and it flies great ! The convertible nose WOW very cool Idea. Same size lipo as the P-38, p-40 etc... could use the same power setup as the p-38. Being an attack/bomber I would want it to be a bit faster than my B-25. Plus it would look really cool next to the P-61 too :) . Lots of options, we all obviously really love our Warbirds, but like yall are already doing "Its time for more undone planes" ... DJ

it doesnt have to be exact..a 1700mm would be fine with me. Itd would still be roughly the same size anyway.
