Repaint #4 complete! This represents the L-39s flown at the Roscosmos Yuri Gargarin Cosmonaut Training Center. Thanks to Callie Graphics as always. One of my favorite EDFs. Over 200 flights already!

A few photos from our club's Warbird Fly-In this weekend. Had a great time flying my B-24 alongside JD Crow's B-24, and a B-17. Mike Reardon brought out his Mig 29 and F-15, putting on some impressive flying displays with both aircraft. JD's B-24 is modified with a bomb drop system, and his 70mm F-16 was repainted as an IDF Scorpion.

Damn, now I want one just like that! I'll PM my address for shipping! Absolutely the first F22 that took my breath away.

[Con Papaioannou]

VERY VERY Cool, love the underside. Gotta believe this one's got visibility in spades! That's the 90mm, right?

Hey, James maybe you should use this video to promote its high alpha abilities.

Thanks, Alex Soldatov for the drone work and for not chopping my wings with it

VerticalAddiction , very nice video, the 4K camera was nice and clear. Looked like a perfect day with clear blue skies and a nice field. I liked the way you mixed in "on board" video with video from ground camera, well done. Regarding the 2nd take-off, we've all been there, some of us way more than once. The Avanti's nose gear is a little sensitive, especially on grass, with it's fairly large nose wheel. You may want to taxi in high rates, but take off in mid or low rates. Or just add a bit more expo in on the rudder/steering to keep from oversteering on take off.

Thanks for your feedback, Hugh! I appreciate it ... Introducing more expo to the rudder channel should help big time, just upgraded to a Futaba 8FG as well so have a world more option for dual rates and beyond ... this spin-out was on me, a little over-steer and it was hooking bad! I seem to have a hard time accepting that I always have the option of an abort! Hope to fly again this weekend and try another mounting position for the onboard camera!

Hey Gang, just wanted to share this video featuring my Avanti S EDF with onboard 4K camera flying over Ottawa Valley Jets here in Ontario, Canada. Love your live shows and will continue to stay tuned! Enjoy the action and thanks for your consideration of my submission for a mention / filler clips on your great live show!

Best Regards, Ryan (VerticalAddiction)

Here's a short video of my Freewing F-4 Phantom equipped with JP Hobby Brakes & RC Geeks new Multiburner Afterburner. This video was taken last month up at Jet Jam in Elizabeth, IN. My Phantom is 3 years old with the original Outrunner EDF. She still flies great.

You can tell our weather has not been conducive to flying in a while as all I've been doing the past 6 weeks is building/painting/modifying the F-18 and now almost finished with the Mig 29.

Hugh, Simply AMAZING work. Beautiful livery. Bravo Zulu, Sir. Best, Steve

[QUOTE=Hugh Wiedman;n318510]Finally got the F-18 Tiger Meet out in the sun for some photos, much better than the indoor artificial light. The weather has still been crap, and this week's forecasts are no better, so haven't been able to maiden it, but hopefully soon, along with my repainted Mig.

Now that tiger in the jungle was well worth shooting !!

[SanExup]

Damn Hugh! Two in a row! That might be one of the coolest Mig29s out there. I usually only like subdued military color schemes and most camouflage, but it's impossible not to really like your Mig!

You can tell our weather has not been conducive to flying in a while as all I've been doing the past 6 weeks is building/painting/modifying the F-18 and now almost finished with the Mig 29. Still need to program the Rx, hook up the TV nozzles and add the 20 amp BEC, but at least the lion's share of the work is done. Hope to maiden both maybe next week as all of this week still looks like manure. Upgrade details are in the Mig thread, however, in explaining the selected scheme, my wife suggested something in yellow/black for visibility and in keeping with my refurbished Firebird 400 and Ram truck. Then I was able to find a rare livery that actually existed, and I couldn't ignore my CO's orders! Only 2 were ever made, and both crashed in an airshow over London when the Russian pilots got disoriented in some clouds. They parachuted to safety, but seems they've never been heard from again! Perfect!! Just what I needed, a failed livery that crashed, just my style. I did add some custom images I found that Callie reproduced so hopefully it will help shed the failed history, thus the Mig-29 "Cobra" was born. As usual, added 4 coats of exterior clear gloss spar urethane. Hopefully, this "viper" won't shed it's skin!

The 4 coats of clear gloss spar urethane really seem to affect the underlying paint shading with different sunlight intensities and clouds. Kinda cool though.

Direct sunlight only:
