Default Will FB bring 2m Viper?

Seems like most of these manufacturers are using same molds for their jets. Is there any chance that Fei Bao will start making 2m Viper?

We put my tomahawk 2m viper side by side to a sky master. Profile and width completely different. Not sure which one was closer to the real thing, but it was interesting how far off they were. My rudder at the fuse was close to twice as wide.

The world has enough vipers! Let's get more unique aircraft going.

I agree. You can't swing a dead cat without hitting a viper. And I'm not sure why. Sure, they look good... but they really don't fly that good. Sure... some are better than others... and the big ones are very stable. BUT, the smaller ones will tip stall worse than my small T-45.

I would like to see some more small to mid sized sport jets, at a reasonable price.

I would buy the Skymaster Viper Jet over the any FB kits. Go have a look at Lee Skymaster and then have a look at Tyson FB one you will see the difference.
