Default Skymasters F14 Release Date?????????



Hello Guys,

Does anyone has an idea when Skymasters F14 will be ready to purchase? What about Cost? I'm sure someone has the inside track I won't tell!

I look closer at the website and it says September 2011.  I wonder if anyone can confirm that month.

I'd like to know, too. It's my dream jet and I aim to be one of the first to have one in the air with two P-100s.

I doubt the Skymaster F-14 will be released on Sept 1st. If so, we would have seen production pictures already.

Wap4life, why Skymaster and not FEJ?

Not to mention, this time last year they said summer of 2011, the year before that was late 2010.
At that rate, mine will be done and orders being taken before theirs is released.

No particular reason, just was thinking the F14 is got to be one of the top popular Jets, im wondered why haven't other companies made them.  I just love the Mig 29 and compared to others, FEJ was my favorite.

Do you have a cost in mind?  I have been following your build thread, you have skills.  How long before you have a test flight?  After reading a few older post, i see that skymasters has delayed their f14 a few times.

I called Details4scales and he is checking on the f14 for me, hopefully will know something by Monday.

I'm really interested in seeing your MIG-29 fly. I like the look of the FEJ MIG-29, but I have not heard positive things about it's flight capability. If yours is successful it will make me feel more confident in purchasing one.

I will let you know! i'm show there will be video of it.  Hopefully soon, it seems like a lot of little things popping up.

My buddy Binson will maiden it and after  the first flight, hopefully i will get a chance with the buddy box.

It really is a beautiful Jet.  Now just need to get the f14 & f18 and i will be done until next summer!

why Skymaster and not FEJ?

better scale outline jets by far
better quality landing gears by far plus they close all the way http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_10...m.htm#10308730
better scale cocpits by far + tested airframes before release to the market

cheers
