Status: offline 		Ok before anybody keeps on trying to make this overly complicated. The Tornado has air up spring down. So all u need are 2 Robart quick disconnects per wing which will cost you a whopping $11. Trust me guys Keep it simple with this plane no need to buy anything more than needed. With all 10 servos I did not use not even 1 match box. If you purchased our servo package we reversed the servos need when we built them.

In case you missed it, to carry the booms and tail still connected make up a spreader plate the width of the fus attachments and just bolt the booms to it, saves taking the tailplane off the booms.

EDIT: As Henry has said the air up spring down retracts supplied only need two connectors not the three shown in the pic below, but you still have four servo connectors per side to do up at the root of the fus, so anything that makes that easier has got to be worth while IMO.

Glad I helped in some way.

Hey Henry I really didn't realize that we only need two conectors, so that's the way I'm going, trying to keep the build simple as possible.

Thanks for the pic Bald looks nice but I'll just skip that extra work on the Tornado, I want to get her in the air as quick as possible.

For the EDF versions will there be a different gear package i.e. minus breaks since there not required?

Thanks,
Mike

Status: offline 		I just got my plane today it looks great.  I will see if can take some pictures and upload them but it looks awesome this is my first jet and I am very excited.  The retracts were installed the fuel tank was in the fuselage and all the decals were on the airplane.  I have purchased many ARF and they never have the decals on them.  I was also shocked to see that they even gave me a T-Shirt with the Tornado on the back.  All for $475 thats crazy.  Great job guys thank you.  I sure I will be bugging you for help with the set up

I will wait for your call.  As for hours you can call me anytime.  Like I have mentioned I take customer service very seriously and since we serve customers from all over the world I accept emails and phone calls all the time.
 
As for the models to the UK they should have them by mid April.  If anybody is interested in one now you can email or call me to place oreder shipping to the UK and most of Europe is fairly inexpensive.
