Oh I am the first and foremost believer in "Jet money is unlimited no matter what" to the bain of my wife but even I can't justify this level of cost. I can understand it in the F14 for example because of the true complexity of the swinging wings etc etc but not on this. Someone mentioned the BVM F-16 being around the same price for a 1/6th scale but people are forgetting that it is a PNP aircraft with all servo's etc included. This jet is just in a whole different world of expense which breaks my heart a bit. Yes I'm well aware that others will be able to afford it and I applaud them.
Also by NO means am I saying that the cost isn't justified...I'm just saying it sucks that I can't afford it. LOL
