uggh... do people not realize there was more than ONE F-14 squadron?
ORIGINAL: Rush!
Would the SM version have slats, flaps and speedbrakes? I have noticed with the F14 that landing it is a bear w/o changing the wing configuration to allow for increased lift.
Also, how does she behave when the wings are swept back? The pressure point changes and i have noticed that she will nose down due to that and you need to run separate trims for wings open and wings closed positions?
Great pics! would love to see it in jolly rodger colors!

RE: Skymaster F14 Tomcat
Hi, all
To get correct measurement of CG of F-14 with swept wing and have Dr. Li Kai design the super construction of main wing., at high cost, Skymaster tested F-14 with swept wing in take-off, flying and landing. We tested to make customers feel more confident about Skymaster F-14.Skymaster doesn’t release F-14 at random until F-14 is fully tested and perfect enough. Sorry to make you wait for a long while. F-14 release will be delayed till the next year.
Video coming soon,
Best regards
Anton

Wow, it flys really nice, even without the wing hatch! I guess its back to the drawing board to get that fixed though. Keep up the good work. I would love to have one of these one day.

RE: Skymaster F14 Tomcat
VERY NICE ANTON!!
This model is prototype and the large hatch too soft. Impossible to land with hatch off and wings swept back. Anton will make new flight with take off and landing with wings back. Looking forward to the release....looking good so far.
