Thanks Vinn, that's too bad. I guess I'll try to sell my Bullet proof P-120. I'm really starting to like this plane. Hamburg is what put it on my radar.

Nothing bigger that 100mm (4") dia will fit.

hello, as I said in the post 1006, which seems to have gone unnoticed, I have installed an engine with more than 100 mm in diameter, is exactly the same in size and weight to a jetcat p80, and I only have 140gr ballast in the nose .

Regards

I'm sure if you are willing to modify anything enough it will fit. Ballast is always down to battery and installation, many have no weight.

Any word that they may be considering a 120 size Excalibur. This is such an outstanding fllyer a big one would be totally awesome.

Dave, they look great! If that USAF scheme had been available when I bought mine, I would have bought that. The grey military scheme that I have looks good, but can sometimes be hard to see, depending on the cloud.

I really like the BA, the Flash and UF in that scheme is very over looked! I just decided I'd build a new Xcalibur next year and pick one :-)

I suggested to a couple of customers to peel off the yellow and change for bright orange, chrome leading edges...easy job and will brighten it up!

Dave.

We just got both BA and T birds in the States now. I guess US customers have priority on these American paint schemes.

I'm sure that Larger Xcalibur is in work.

Cool, after all, the schemes were devised for your market :-)

Yes, the other schemes are still available, plan was just to add schemes every year or so.

Just received my new Xcalibar in the Blue Angel Scheme, however I would like to find one in the Union Jack (British) Scheme. Tried to order on from Motors and Rotors website but message stated no shipping option to my location. Any suggestions? Dan USA Arizona

Hi Dan
We can send the Xcalibur jet to your Arizona location but sorry we have only the Blue Angel and Thunderbirs scheme available in stock now.
We can put you on the waiting list of that British scheme.
You can send email to [email protected] to talk about this. Thank you.
Regards
