Status: offline 		It looks great, Mark - I am on my second SM 1:6 F-16 now, the first one has been through 4 owners and is still flying, and I had
almost 200 flights on that airframe before I sold it. The "new" one now has about 75 flights, and I can see a G2 in my future,
and will follow this thread and look forward to hearing the details!

Status: online 		mine just shipped. Its a one of a kind Razorback theme. One of a kind because no one else has done it in the 1/6th scale. Since I'm from Arkansas it fits for me! I plan on putting the BF-300 in it. Should be enough power. What does the hive think>? LOL.

Status: offline 		I originally had a P200sx in the G2, landing the F16 on high residual thrust was a slight problem in no wing conditions, I had even set the throttle to give me lower thrust at half trim , fuel was no problem as in 7 mins I only used top tank, I now have a Jetcat P180 Rx wow what a difference , plane flies so much lighter and the slow flight envelope is better, fuel consumption is the same, so Marc is thinking along these lines I think!
Good luck you'll love it Andy, it now weights light at 16.5kg no fuel, go vipers go.

Status: offline 		Hi Mark - it was good talking to you and seeing you fly at Jetpower! I have ordered my G2 now, and have decided on the
Behotec JB220, that should give me more than enough thrust! I will do this one in a Norwegian scheme, maybe a little boring,
but that's the way they look here! Could you post or mail me some pictures of your install?
Best regards,
Tor

Status: offline 		Well - my G2 arrived today after a LOOOOOONG wait - this will be a Norwegian scheme and the base colour was laid down by SM, but the decals
will be added here. I love the white U/C and the new metal hinges, as well as the added details on the surface and the chute tail. Now for a few
weeks of intense work to get it maidened before our Norwegian JetPower meeting (yes, we were allowed by Winfried to use that name!! )
Power will as mentioned before be a Behotec 220, no shortage of power and probably much smoother and faster throttle than my quite old
P180...
Work begins tomorrow and I will post a few pictures as I move along! Looking forward to having an F-16 in the hangar again!!
