I like the orange/black or red/black look also. If not then maybe an AgWagon/Pickup color scheme too.
As far as scale: I like the nav lights and quality wheels. Also maybe a working cockpit door and hopper lid. I also like the idea of scale spray bar hangers (but not needed in order to help keep the price down).
I have plenty more up close AgWagon pics if needed for a detail reference. Just let me know.

Spray bars are actually an option for this ARF?? What would the price be for that and would they be ready to be functional or static displat only? I have never, ever heard of such a scale offering from any ARF maker. This would set the level several steps higher for any competitors.....

Per Glen's previous email: 'hi guys i will be adding a spray bar to the prototype next week (SMOKE ON),,i will post step by step pics on how i do it & some low fling vids will be done,im realy happy you guys like it
cheers glen'

I'm not sure if this is just for the video presentation, or possibly Austars is considering manufacturing the spray bars with the airplane. If so, that would be REALLY cool!

Ready to use factory manufactured spray bars on a 110' giant scale ag plane..... I can hardly contain myself.
I wonder who the U.S. distributor will be?

Hi, grh-70
How is the Bird Dog progressing?
-
for the bird dog, we cancelled this project, the first prototype would be tested soon! as we found its wingspan is so small (94 inch).

Today is the judgement day, haha, seems everybody not against the orange/black color scheme! next Monday we would confirm the date to release this boy! not far!!!!!!!!
this weekend, the team will be together for the optional stuff (spray bar, and navigation lights...),

cheers
Alex
Team of Austars
