IMHO my A-10 is a bit big for a park flyer.

Of course I'm more than happy to sell you an A-10 but 70 oz of twin fan airplane is a little large for a park flyer.

I recently purchased a Wattage F-86. It's a nice little kit. I am holding off building because I am planning on modifying it and havent received all my new parts yet:

1. Cut Down Kyosho fan rotor in stock duct
2. Mega Motor brushless motor
3. Third servo for elevator control
4. Carbon fiber rod spar
5. Stiffened vertical and horizontal stab
6. Custom battery packs

This rotor/motor can reportedly reach 68 mph! A bit fast for a park flier, but, what the hay!

Even stock, it reportedly flies reasonably well.

Today I did receive my custom batteries from MPI. Eveven 1000 mah NiMH cells in a 5/6 hump configuration. Fit perfectly in the battery compartment! Scotty! I need MORE POWER!

HOT! WATTAGE HAS JUST OFFICIALLY RELEASED A MIG-15 COUNTERPART TO THE F-86! Who wants to play "Mig Alley"?!

Go to www.aerc.biz and check out their F-4 kit, all laser cut, and uses two of the inexpensive GWS EDF-50s.

I want their yet to be released Eurofighter
