Roberto, have you checked with rcjets.com? Michel is in Chile, he is a Skymaster dealer. He quoted an 1/8 F-16 for me not so long ago at a really good price.

Great Skymaster dealer. He has sold many Skymaster jets in Brazil.

I just have one problem, I live in Brazil

You guys wouldn´t believe what is the jets prices here in Brazil

For example, a 1:6 Jet Legend F-16 is US$ 7.000,00 Just the kit !!!!

Best Regards




Roberto, is it not possible to get a cheap flight to the states and bring the F-16 back with you ?

Hi Roberto

Are you kidding..... 7000USD or 7000 Reais?

For that price you could buy airframe, turbine, electronics and a even a couple of beers

The best plane depends on what you value more. I had SM and FEJ, but been arround with JL as well. If you value a nice cockpit and landing gear, SM is the way to go.

JL are very light, but the glass fiber tend to crack a lot a the frames are painted in the mould. FEJ and SM have external paints- I think JL can make external as well...


If you ask me what brand would I buy, would be SM with NO DOUBT - but make sure they have the gear made by Airpower or Likai. The other gear are crap. early FEJ models had also crappy gears. Hope they have improved because their prices sure have been raised....

NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY, DO NOT MOUNT THE TURBINE IN THE TAIL.

Good luck

Hi Guys,

I will contact Michel in chile

I´m not joking. This is in US$. If was reais I would be happy.

You know, Brazil is not a serius country, we have a lot of fees to pay

Sometimes I go to Orlando - FL just for shopping, but we just can buy US$ 500 , or we have to pay 60% of fees

Not easy to live in Brazil.

Maybe in the next live I can be luck enough to born in EUA or Europe

Best Regards

Don't say that.... You live in a Great Country. My father lives in Fortaleza. I just love it

It's not easy to live in Europe right now, specialy in the PIGs countries (Portugal, Ireland and Greece). Spain and France are going down as well. Don't want to get political, but you have a beautifull country that as a growth rate of more than 6% and in part it is because of restrictive policies and high taxes to imports....

In Portugal we pay taxes from 50USD.

But 7.000USD for a JL F16 really sucks, men[&:]

You can always buil a wood one[8D]

Regards

Nuno
