RE: SkyMaster vs Flyeagle F-16 size
Hey Dave,
Interesting,
Can you put them side by side and then take a picture, instead of one in front of the other? I know the camera tries to fool the eyes when one object is closer than another. Thanks.

Wow Dave !
I can testify that the SM F 16 is a great flier & the landing gear appears to be second to none . RR Long has two of the F16's
and he's usually center cut on the landings ,No Gong for his landings lately. Good luck with the Fleet.

RE: SkyMaster vs Flyeagle F-16 size
I can tell by teh pics that Fly Eagle has the Threat Detection antennas all around and SM has nothing. Wow FE even has the VHF antenna at the base of the rudder.
Also, white landing gear is a killer and the $2000 less price tag is attractive as well.
However, you need to fly "the hell out of" both and tell us how it goes. Fly Eagle is known to provide leaky hardware which may end up in belly landings that will ruin the model pretty fast.
Based on looks............hands down Fly Eagle [sm=thumbup.gif]

Dan, will you be able to make some "toys" for the FEJ? Dave S and I both want to do the speed brakes, chute and lights. Can you help us out? The stuff you did for my SM F-4 Bunny was great.
Thanks,
Lowell

Interesting,
I have not owned a Fly Eagle Jet. I like the size and look but I have not seen one come out to the field day after day and become a reliable jet. However I can say I have owned a few Sky Master F-16's and out of the box to out to the field they are reliable and durable jets and would highly recomend. My 2 cents.

RE: SkyMaster vs Flyeagle F-16 size
Just found this thread, just what I'm looking for. I'm think about the fly eagle, but I guess I would have to buy somethings from sky master like the speed brakes and drag chute. Any update on how the fly eagle flies?

They fly great. I love mine and there are other threads around with them flying. The gear is now "in house" and works perfect. Let me know if you want one. We are a dealer for them as well as enjoy their products!
Thanks,
