    Pat....... You must have some form of persuasion with Alpha up your sleeve !?!? ;)
    I wish. But then again that's probably a good thing. Otherwise I'd be broke from buying all the models I want! :D

    Jumping on board the Bronco train. Even though I'm planning on scratchbuilding my own at 1/8th scale, I would still be in to buy one if flightline were to produce one.

    Here is a progress shot of my CAD model in its current state. I'm hoping to start working on the plug summer 2017.

    Can't let this go a week without a bump.

    OV-10, 1500-1600mm, same power system as the P-38 and F7F.

    Come on MRC, make it happen! :)

    Grossman, It would appear Charlie's is a Scale Tech, which used Uravich's plans to create their ARF. They use the same plans with a few tweaks..... The only problem this plane had were the landings. You have to fly it to the ground. If you tried to float the plane in with the nose up, it would blank out the Horizontal stab, and drop like a rock...... but lots of fun.

    The pictures are of my plane, built from Uravitch OV-10 plans, with an extra wing bay on each end. Increases the wing span 6". Great flying twin, but I would like to see Flight line scale one out. I think it could be a lot better. The changes to the Canopy area were to accommodate batteries, and other electric stuff.......

    Dan........IP's looks to be the BIG BOY BRONCO(1/6) of Uravitch's and mine is the (1/9).
    Just remember Alpha.....a 1500mm is a perfect 1/8 scale ;)

    Alpha, here are some pics of my latest Ov-10, Uravitch Plans. The pilots, and retracts are from my Free wing stealth F15 that did a vertical landing. I'm changing the motors from NTM 4250-500 KV, to Flight line 3748-600KV from the P-38/Tiger cat, and additionally, new Tiger cat Hubs, and props. The nose gear is from a FW Yak 130. Motion rc is a good source of hard to find parts for off-beat planes. Still want a Flight line Ov-10 Scaled out.......

    Ha, if you guys only knew.

    Besides, Grossman, Charlie is under ten feet of snow so I don't think can hear our chatter about his favorite plane.

    Welcome Tuan!!
    Hey Charlie, I think Alpha has the slide rule and angles out at the drafting table and is working on the logistics of the OV10 as we speak!!

    Hi Tuan, welcome to Hobbysquawk! What size and brand of props are you using on your Bronco? They look like MAS?

    I was under the impression following FMS' public opinion poll on RCG that they were working on a Bronco, because it was the winner. If that is true, then out of courtesy, the other manufacturers we work with wouldn't want to intentionally begin to develop a specific plane if they were aware that another manufacturer was already further along in the process of making it. Functioning as an Air Traffic Controller of sorts is an important role we play, to ensure good models of different planes from all manufacturers all land on the same runway safely with tactful coordination.
    Hello Alpha,
    I have been following the industry take on the OV-10 Bronco for obvious reasons. Back on post #11, I indicate that Jim from Force(he leads us to understand he is the point for FMS) did announce( http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...4#post35984565 ) that they were gonna do a 1500 sized one but then shut the thread down shortly after the announcement and that was over 2 months ago with no follow up as Pat has also confirmed earlier today. Back in my post #11 I also inquired if Mark or Tom would care to validate that claim. Ever since that apparent shutdown event is the main reason you have seen myself looking to FlightLine to be the salvation of an iconic bird if FMS is really dropping the ball.
    Best regards,
