Thnx eaglepilot2!

I went all out on it and still doing more. I am about to start doing flightmetal on the hot section.

Aircraft is powered by a K210 and when available will have a K250 installed.
I made the inlets functional. Hidden linkages on the rudders. Burner lights tucked in so you cant see them when its static. Modified airbrake to be more scale. Canopy function. Hidden hatch latches. Full lights. Lots of cockpit improvements including the WSO glare shield is scratch built because the stock one is really bad looking. I used a robot control board I bought for $19 that can control up to 6 servos and have the pilots heads move and the WSO has moving arms on about a 3 min loop.

I still need to build new missiles for it. The ones that come with it are not scale. Going to probably stick 4 detailed sidewinders on it when I get to that point.

I painted it to copy the F15E S/N 0245 that a 3 star general flies.
