Status: offline 		         We would like to formally introduce our new jet the TORNADO.  As many people already know the airplane is going to be sold as an ARF.  It's construction is made up of a composite fuselage and built up wings,booms and elevator that are fully sheeted.  The jet is made to accommodate a 12lb.-18 lb. thrust engine with a case diameter of 3.25 inches - 3.75 inches i.e. P60,P70,Wren 70-75, King Tech K80 etc...  The airplane  comes with factory installed spring air retracts, composite fuel tank made by Derrick Martin, composite control horns, and aluminum turbine mount pre-installed on the airplane. Pre-sales will start in mid-November and we are expecting to have the first shipment by mid-December.  Total price of the kit is $475.00
      
         We are also offering a complete servo package that includes 10 metal gear ball bearing servos, all extensions needed for the jet and a 6.6V LiFe battery for $250.  All servo's extensions and batteries are made in house.  We have also partnered up with Spring Air products to offer a set of Wheels,Brakes and struts for under $200. A mechanical or electric brake valve along with a UAT will be offered by Dreamworks RC to complete the kit off. 

       In about 1 1/2 weeks we will have a full set of pictures and a manual for you to view.  Anybody interested on getting on the pre-order wait list you can email your full name, phone number and email to info@modellbauusa.com.  There will be exclusive dealers for Germany, UK and Australia, so check back with me for more details.

1. are the wings and controls covered with monokote type covering or glass ?
2. do you make the fiberglass fuse in house ? the falcon 120 had terrible glass work.

In case you have missunderstood the title, this is a pod and boom airframe simmilar to a Boomerang and not a scale Tornado.
