Yes, please make an F-15, F-16, F-5 etc but with NO Gear Doors!! Incorporate your trailing links on these jets so we can have a semi-scale jet but be able to use them on our grass fields.
Pretty Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

RE: The new Tornado sport jet
Thanks guys for all the feed back. We are making more struts wheels and brakes for the TORNADO as wheels as servo packages. So stock is not an issue anymore if anybody would like to purchase an airplane package please let me know. Also FYI the new wheels and brakes will be disc brakes custom made by Eurokit for our trailing link struts.
As for new kits we are expecting to release another 4 kits a side from the Tornado in 2011. All of them will be semi-scale jet kits for 12-18 lb. turbines.

I had a few people ask me what the servo package looked like, so here it is. You also get another bag with all the extensions and battery

Ok I guess I can do that wish granted. LOL
They will have scale looking gear available but our trailing link struts will be able to fit into the gear.NO DOORS we like to Keep it simple.

RE: The new Tornado sport jet
You guys are funny 
anytime if you guys have any suggestions on what you might want for airframes please let me know and if enough people express interest Iwill have myguysget on it and make it happen. As for the manual it is complete Imjust waiting to get a few pictures that I missed on my model when Iwas building it, so Ihave to wait till we get the kits so I can take it then. I just recieved info from the freight company and the kits will arrive on Dec 25, Christmas of all days so If they release them to me then Iwill start to ship on the 28th.

F-18 with semi scale gear (doesn't have to be perfect) or a light and affordable Eurofighter.
The fact is right now there are NO affordable and decent quality semi scale jets of those types. Go ahead and show me one if you disagree that WORKS well. The Chinese manufacturers release nothing but junk that requires hundreds of hours to get working and are all too heavy. And as nice as the Yellow Aircraft equipment is, they require too much work and too much money to get together. I would be completely happy with an affordable version of either of them. With just basic struts that work without difficulty. Designed with ease of flight in mind. And yes I would be totally fine with Monocoat wings etc as long as they looked nice and flew well in a size that I didn't need a freaking flatbed to get them to the field.
Just my two cents.

I think an F9 Panther for P60 Size would be good. Clasic jet and flys like a trainer

RE: The new Tornado sport jet
PepperPete, you are so right. Cermark and their turbine version F-16 was the only thing close and they stopped making it. Plus, it was similar to their prop version but charged double because it could except a turbine.
No more Panthers guys!!!! There are too many other cool looking jets out there to have to resort to a Panther

RE: The new Tornado sport jet
Hnery ,
Here is a list of my favorites. I go mostly for AF planes but I really like the early jets. I am retired AF. F-89, P-94, F-84, T-33, F2H Banshee, F3H Demon, F11F Tiger. I did list a few Navy fighters. The old straight wing fighters would make great trainers too. Of course a 15-18 pound F-35 would be great too.
