Axis 1600mm Flightline planes

[Hillbilly Jones]

The Flightline 1600mm Corsair and Spitfire have been out for a while. Us warbird guys love to mock dogfight, so why have there not been any 1600mm Axis planes from Flightline? Seems like a no-brainer. Plenty of new EDF planes have come out, though. 🤷♂️

Hey mate, good question. This comes up from time to time and from what I am aware of, they are said to simply not sell as well as allied planes.

AfAIK it simply then comes down to a business decision for the manufacturer as to whether its worth doing or not.

I was hoping a couple of years back that we'd get a flightline FW190 and ended up grabbing an eflite FW190 instead when it came out and am very happy with it. At 1.5m it's a good scale match for the 1.6 Flightline Spitty too.

Hope this helps.
Cheers
