Hi Vin,

Looks great thanks for the pics.

Does it come with a bypass? Do you happen to know if it comes in white?

Vin,

Congratulations, we are working on the instructions, but send me an email or call me if you need any information on CG, control trows, servos, the way it flies etc..
Hope you enjoy.

Oh no, i wasnt saying it was small. At 98" long and 55" wide its plenty big, its just the outline of the MIG 21 that can get confusing in the air and then silver too!! Orientation can be a ***** on the MIG! I watched Somes fly the Airworld one and I lost it a bunch while he was flying!!!
Pics look great. The Mig and F1 both looked awesome. Oh yea, landing the Mig looks like a breeze. Comes in very nose high.

Man, not having to hinge and cylinder those doors and speed brakes is sooo nice!!! They looks like they fit awesome too. Very impressive. Must of saved countless hours.
What did you pay for everything?

Hi Vin:

After seeing Wagner's 21 display at Pensacola, I knew you were going to love it. And it is light. I think the one Pablo has on YouTube came in at about 25 dry with an RTI in it.

Time to pick out my color scheme.
