The releasing date will be around August 21th. More information can be found at our website soon.

Thanks

More information and photos will come soon.

Thanks
James

James,

How do these weights stack up? Is this airframe only weight without turbines etc? If not, does adding a second turbine & onboard equipment plus additional structure/thrust pipe etc really only add 2.2lbs???!?!?!

Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmm

Hi Schroedm:

For your question as below: This is the weight we calculate with Jet Central Rabbit engine and Behotic 180 engine.

Rabbit1000g x2
Behotec-180 1750g

different about 250g

single engine pipe 1000g
twin engines pipes 550*2=1,100g
different about 100g

extra items for twin

Pump 60g
valve 60g
UAT 60g
ECU 35g
wire 45g
tank 150g
battery 150g
engine former 50g
bypass 65g

Of course, if having different engines, they should have different weight.

Thanks
James

I'm confused, did you make the fuse thicker in the middle on the bottom to fit an engine and pipe in there? Is it a bifurcated pipe then? Not sure how an F14 is doable on a single engine?

Alex48

The bifurcated pipe will lose loads of thrust with that sort of set up......but happy to be proved wrong....looks nice though

I would like to see the pipes configuration.

Its gonna have to be similar to like how the single Mig 29 pipe is. And it might help if they cheated a bit on the center section by making more room.

James, do you have any pics that look up into the body from the tail, that might explain it better.

My Feedback: (23)

You can tell by looking at the bulkhead just aft of the turbine and the center section of the fuselage between the exhaust nozzles its ALOT thicker in the center section. I would say at a minimum 3" where the turbine is positioned.. Looks good though for a stand off scale airplane

That's got to be one hell of a wide bifurcated pipe!!!!!

invertmast

My Feedback: (23)

There's roughly 28" between centers on a 1/7 scale model. So your talking about 24" on a 1/8. I bet thats a helluva thrust loss

Who needs a tail pipe ? as you can see there is no pipe in the pictures.

Bolt up your big turbine in the middle of your F-14 and there you have it - a single engine F-14 ! or is that not the way it works ?

Now to be more serious - please do provide some pics of the tail pipe assembly.

Well, I'll post some pics of my 1/8.5 bounty hunter when I get mine. Dantley and I just sent our money overseas to FEJ.

I suppose I'll have a flight report as well!

FenderBean

Congrats im waiting mine but its the large one

ravill

My Feedback: (11)

Large single or twin?

I'm gonna go with Todd's at dreamworks electric retracts more than likely.

FenderBean

Im going twin, Todd has electronic retract for the f14, I was going to use down and locked like I did with my f16

dubd

I went with a twin, only so that Raf can have an opportunity to pick up a P-200 for his single.

FenderBean

Lol Ahh its good to have friendly competition

ravill

My Feedback: (11)

Yeah, Dantley, leave me at lease one!

It was a pleasure dealing with all 3 of you! Now I can't wait to see them at the shows out here and KJ. I just ordered a new A-7, but I'm sure I will get the bug again to have a big cat in the stable once I see you guys out there!
Thanks again..

FenderBean

Back at you! I hope to have these kind of people to deal with when I start my shop.

Ravill - wait before u buy the electric retracts.  My retracts on my f-14 and mig work flawlessly.  The f-14 can hold air for hours no leaks and all original fej parts

hi friends:

If you see the web of Flyeagle you can find photos of the single engine, I like more the 2 engines, sorry but this single version not is a F-14, for my this not is an option.

Like the F-18, F-15, Mig-29 and other models in single engine version the scale shape is the same, but in the F-14....
