I understand that a Jet with a prop on the nose is usually unapealing but the way they made the nose form to the spinner gives this plane a unique look. I'm not even looking at it as an f-86 but just a cool looking prop jet. It actually looks like a turbo prop plane I wonder what the ground clearence for prop size is??? Not that you would want a big prop for speed.

Annoying isn't it.

I'm still building the planes I purchased last year, and now there are a few more that keep calling out with their Siren's song.

It's very hard to resist....

It looks pretty nice, but I think it's too heavy for a nice electric powered jet for me. I like the Vmar Mig 21 better.

Mr. Stang:

It is scale. There was a version of the F-86 with a radar dome on the front that looked exactly like that.

Definitely cheaper then the ones in this months Fly R/C mag. I believe those started at 40 grand.

I'm still waiting for them to come out with a ME 262, now that would get my attention.
