Alright Alpha, spill the beans...

Thank you Thank you Thank you :)

Twins are 2X the Fun

Oh that is just plain sexy :) Great, another for the wish list lol

Horray! One less secret for me to keep!

To clear up some questions, we took over the project over a year ago and brought it out of mothballs. Dynam's Martin B-26 Marauder is a 1500mm wingspan class in keeping with Dynam's other 1500mm twin engine warbirds. Dynam preferred to stay with that size while FlightLineRC's twins will stay in 1600mm size. Two different sizes, two detail levels, and two price ranges. More options for all of us = Everyone wins :)

We'll be offering two base colors, OD/gray, and Silver, with multiple decal options for each. The bloc is modeled after Flak Bait, my favorite Marauder. Four flaps, scale span ailerons, free swiveling dorsal turret. New, brighter, white landing light. Slight forward rake on the nose strut. Removable outer wing panels for very easy transport without having to fuss with ESC wires. All structural parts screw together.

We've incorporated as much of the features we've learned from customer feedback in growing our FlightLineRC brand, while staying within Dynam's preferred price range. Retractable landing gear with large and wide foam tires, for example, for grass operations. ESCs are in the nacelles for adequate cooling. Dynam also agreed to go the extra mile and molded an all new pair of props. Four blade, COUNTER-ROTATING. Though not necessary (I maidened the very first prototype on Dynam C-47 non-CR props just fine), I just couldn't see us selling three blade non-CR props on a Marauder in 2017. Not on my watch.

Power system is a single 4s, and this time there's space for 2500mAh-5000mAh. 3000mAh is a nice spot for bomber like performance. I didn't like being limited to 2200mAh on Dynam's 1500mm Bf-110. So, big bay, easy to CG. We'll publish more information via our various official channels as it is confirmed in the coming two weeks. I had hoped to keep this one quiet a little longer, but it's close enough.

In the meantime, read up on this aircraft's history. After a rough start, it excelled --significantly--distinguishing its service record in many ways. We're proud to bring it into the fold for bomber enthusiasts for the first time in foam electric PNP!

Very :Cool: Alpha,
Please ensure that Dynam gets the colorization of the nose art grin correct with the red in it versus all black ;)

Here is what Lt. Arthur Brewer's bird of the 495th BS, 344th BG nose looks like.

Two bits of good news here.... I can buy a new PC as planned and also I can buy my two new guns as planned my .308 and mod2 9mm! Then when she comes to motion, this one will be mine! I've been waiting so long for this!

[OV10]

Before anyone asks what scale this represents..............1/14th (for those into nits......1/14.44).

[rifleman_btx]

Price point near what we would expect from Dynam?

[rifleman_btx]

Flaps included with this one awesome!

[OV10]

Price point near what we would expect from Dynam?

I would suspect yes is the logical conclusion. ;)
I would venture to speculate $199-219 range.

That would be perfect, really looking forward to this

[rifleman_btx]

Wonder if it includes the light controller or do we supply our own as before?

[Hippie 64]

My understanding is the next Dynam container is due mid-late May , will anyone verify that ???? Is this going to be on it ?????

SWEET GOOGLY MOOGLY! This is so awesome! Many thanks to Dynam and Motion for this one.

[Boots Whirlygig]

I like the four blade counter rotation prop! What diameter would they be at that scale? Something tells me they better ship a bunch of those, or am I the only propellor collector?:Silly:I going to pass on the Marauder, but when you announce that 1600 OV-10 Bronco, you'll take my money!! I mean more of my money! Please!!ov10:Cool::Cool:

[Boots Whirlygig]

The Curtis electrics were 13' 6", at 1/14 that should have 11 1/2" props! I need those!

[AkumaZeto]

Pretty sweet looking bird!
