Jetlegend Mig 29 Fulcrum
1 Attachment(s)
Well it finally arrived yesterday straight from the factory, number 006 Jetlegend Mig 29 ARF and what a glorious example of aircraft moulding, complete with a set of wonderfully engineered retracts that are just outstanding to look at and fondle (much to my wife’s dismay).
Well when faced with such a shiny new box of “Thrill” what was a bloke to do?? Well you get a couple of mates around, taste a couple of beers, unpack her and start bolting it together (for a bit more fondling – sorry sweetie). Luckily the factory installed the gear doors (all 9 of them) and the LG so it was not long till she stood there, resplendent in all her glory. Have posted pics (I hope anyway) and will post more as the build comes along over the next 4 weeks or so. |

Very nice Bart. I'm in the process of waiting for the JL SU27 Flanker. Interesting how they have done the tailpipe. I wonder how much the power will be reduced with that large a split ?

RE: Jetlegend Mig 29 Fulcrum
Very nice indeed. We have the UK JL agent in our club and we are just waiting for him to get his finger out and get one up to the field.:eek:
What is the paintwork like? It has been a bit variable on some of the JL models but the rest of the construction has usually been very good. We have a lot of JL models at our club. |
RE: Jetlegend Mig 29 Fulcrum

RE: Jetlegend Mig 29 Fulcrum

very nice ship there buddy but didnt jet legend have a prob with wing or craftman ship ? i would love one of these but can i trust them ?
any way still a nice ship |
RE: Jetlegend Mig 29 Fulcrum
We must have about 15 JL models in our club. L39's are two a penny, but F16's, F4's, F18's F15's, F22's and F20's have all flown well. Some people have had a few building issues with the early ones but we have seen no airframes failures that were not owner induced.

Hi,
Yes I received one too for a customer - think I'm going for one with a custom paint job as I'm not keen on the factory scheme! It's so nice and Mr Yang at JL was very pleased with its flight performance. Just a note for you guys thinking about the SU-27 - I received one of these too and in my opinion it looked better than the MIG! However, please note that the SU is beeing supplied as a TWIN airframe with possible turbine choices such as Wren 70, SS, P70, Merlin 90 etc... Super airframes from JL these days... Jeff |

Hi Jeff, So you did get your finger out:D Jeff Are you bringing it to Elvington? (actually that could be a bad idea with the number of jets I have at the moment. SWMBO will have my guts for garters if I bring another one home0.[:o] I agree about the colour scheme though. See youi next weekend if we don't have snow. Cheers John |
