Default Larger Nitro Models planned??

Hi,

I'm tentatively looking for a larger plane than Nitro currently offers. Are there any thoughts or plans about offering planes in the 84 to 104" wingspan range??? If so, I'll wait for you guys. I like your prices!

Thanks,
AV8TOR

Same here...I have 3 of your birds, P-82 Twin Mustang (Twin 40's), Cessna 182 (140 size), and your Cessna 310 (Twin .81-.91). I would lke to see a Beech Bonanza (1.20 - 1.40 size), or 1/3 Scal Spacewalker, Gee Bee Type-Y, or a 1/3 rd scale Super Cub, or Clipped Wing Cub..!!! Keep up the good work guys, and the low prices...!!!

How about a Giles or Extra at around 96" wingspan? Or something like the Great Planes Giant Super Sportster at over 84" span.

Any chances guys???

A Big P-51 like Top Flites' ARF, or a C-130 like the ASM at Hobby People. Theirs is 100", yours could be 100" to 120", a B-17 say at the same size would be nice as well. Any Twin or Quad engine WW II fighter would be nice, or the Civilian DC-3, C-54, or a 4-engine DC-4 or Super Constellation should sell very well...!!!

I wanna Giant Super Sportster or Giles!!!

BTW... I already have your Katana 140, your Tiger Moth 120, your Mustang .60, your Christen Eagle 120, and your Ultimate Electric. The Katana, Ultimate, and Tiger Moth fly great. The Christen Eagle is on the workbench and close to finished. The Mustang I'll do later...

Merry Christmas,
AV8TOR

A balsa and ply C130 designed for four .10-.15 two strokes that does not look like a cartoon characature.

EDIT// Even an ARC would be great so we can detail it our selves.

lol thanks for all the kind suggestions people... we have been working on the FOKKER DR1 for a while but not in 1/4 yet...but i would discuss the 1/3, 1/4th scale of all the models mentioned with the factory and hopefully we can roll out a few in 2008...this is definitely something we will be approaching in the future...wish everyone a merry christmas and a happy new year

Thanks for the nice answer/post, and we will be watching for any new releases coming up.

Sometimes the magazines call your airplanes "builders ARFS", because the directions are a bit sparse, but that's ok. I still like them!

The fact that they require a bit more effort on the part of the hobbyist is an attraction to me. They still provide me with a product that I enjoy, and provide me with an airplane that I would NOT have taken the time to build from scratch myself. I am therefore able to own and fly many more "dream airplanes" than I could if the only option were to buy builders kits, or the more expensive ARFs than those that you offer.

Thanks, and Happy Holidays to you as well,
