Default RE: Beging whit DF or Turbine?

Jasper,

The BVM and YA are both good quality in terms of scale. The airfoil en the BVM model is more realistic (very thin), while the airfoil on the YA is thicker and has a flatter bottom (like the real one does), this makes it a lot more stable on lower speeds, and more manouverable at higher speeds.

However, the intake on the YA model has a small bump to make room for the nose wheel. Also, the nose wheel retract on the YA version is more scale than BVM, it has a support strut just like the real F-16.

Im installing AMRAMS and LANTIRNS on my falcon. It will look dirty but I don't care one bit. A clean F-16 to me make no sense.

Keep posting!!
