See the servo cutouts are made now for internal servos which is a much better idea, especially if you use the same covers as supplied on the Boomerangs which work great.

Does it matter, its a natural evolution of an airframe no matter who it comes from.

What ever happened to the V2 to V3 upgrade in red white. Never was able to get one from you.

We made the first batch and they sold out quickly but it is not cost effective for the customer to buy. For only a little bit more you got a full kit. Especially with the new price we will be making on the next batch of aircraft. We have been able to do this now because we have out sourced several large parts of our kits and labor to other factories over seas that can do it more cost effective than us. We are very busy in the UAV Market now and don't have the resources to do both with out sacrificing our commitments with the GOV. We are still making several parts in the USA, like retracts due to our partnership with Spring Air, fuel tanks, motor mounts, and several other things on our kit.

We are passing the savings to you guys. I thank you guys very much for all your support and I will continue to bring more things to the market. This new business decision that we have made will allow us to make kits we had projected happen quicker since now we have a large amount of man power.

I have not published the new color schemes yet I will have pictures up as soon as we finish making all decals. I expect to have them up Soon in the market place for sale. As a forum sponser we need to follow the rules of the forum just like everybody else should so I will have all pictures up in the market place as soon as possible

Whoever posted the pics of the new nitroplanes schemes can you post them in the Falcon 120 thread which would probably solve the issue

I did edit messages by the instruction of the powers above lol. Like I said I will post pictures of our new scheme in the Market Place when they go up for sale. Again there are rules that we all have to follow in the forums and I am doing that after a few things were brought to my attention. Thanks.

And those pictures are not of nitro planes new scheme. They will not be selling those schemes or airplanes. That is just one of our fellow trolls hijacking the thread. Actually those pictures were taken down by the moderators due to the fact that they were not true and false advertising. Unlike companies based over seas we are here in the USA and have to follow laws pertaining to proprietary designs and property so we are finishing up legal paper work before we put the Tornado V3 up for sale.

hello everyone!! I want to leave a comment here, already had a very good tornado v2 and now v3 rode the flying very well and found the booms are an evolution of the tail fiber reinforcing and improving the set, as are the bobcats, etcs ... boomerangs; yesterday saw the topic here that someone put some pictures with a new tail but balsa reinforced with fiber blanket,'m sorry to say that is not the same thing and if I remember seeing this topic from the beginning, I saw that many of the readers of this asked that the topic be made whole bundle. I think this is a setback rather than an evolution. Well the weight gain has its consequences such as increased consumption of Kerosene but in return gain stability, more speed and a late flight much firmer on windy days, not counting the security that he spends in flight!! It seems really a Bobcat!! that today would not be acquiring financial conditions. So evolution has its price in that tornado v3 no increase at all. Let it be clear, I am not criticizing anyone, just putting my opinion. Regards to all and let's fly too!!

NOTE: After'll post some pictures and a video of my tornado v3.

Pedro, modellbau does not offer a receiver ready tornado. The v3 sold for $475 pls shipping a fantastic deal... Now Henry is claiming the new batch will be even less! I may have to buy one just to have as a spare.

I flew my V2+ Merlin 90 with Futaba telemetry. It logged 240 km/h and the max distance from me was 490 meters.
Pretty much as I estimated. So far pretty happy with the value. Only one thing causes a problem: one of the blind nuts in the booms eats the threads of the bolt. So there is something in the threads or the blind nut has been squeezed or glued to wrong position.
Anybody had this issue? The landing gear works surprisingly well.

Hi guys do you know which retract will drop and fit in the tornado for use with the spring air struct (3/8"), I want to change my retracs because is ver dificult to transport the plane with the landing gear down and my retracts springs are ver "tired" as well.

Thanks a lot.
