Default Online store that have it all?

Im just getting into the Jet scene. Im trying to find bascailly a one stop shop where i can order all my parts from. Im looking into perhaps a F14, or do they have the new raptors out yet? Thanks!

BVM doesn't offer an F-14 that I know of, but for an on-line store full of Jet related goodies it's going to be hard to find one anymore complete.
Note: I am not a BVM rep, just a customer..

If you are just getting into Jets I wouldn't even consider something as complex as an F-14, first of all the financial outlay is serious to say the least, but the total complexity of the model is incredible, not something you want to be messing with for a first jet.
Check with Dean at www.helijet.ca He has access to, and stocks a ton of stuff, you can probably get everything you need except your radio from Helijet

www.rpm-tech.com can sell you everything you need to get a Turbine Jet in the air. Their jet is similar to a Raptor (that's the cai plane?).

Why is the F14 so complex. I have loved the F14 since i was a kid and always wanted a turbine one. I was looking at some of th elinks for F14, they are serious bucks!!! I dont thik i can afford it for my first jet to say the least.

Twin engine and swing-wing. Both complex and big bucks!

take a look at jai's post on his f-14 on this post: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_88513/mpage_10/tm.htm. He crashed it on its maiden flight and he is a way skilled builder and flier. Granted he scratch built it, but it doesnt matter, the f-14 will probably be way too complicated, not only for the reasons that siclick said but also for engine out problems. There is no way to make a bifircated system in there, so if one motor were to quit, you would have an ass of adverse yaw, and it would most likely go in. Another problem is the change in cg when the wings go from out to back, that complicates things too. Just some thoughts, i mean hell i want a harrier but for the mean time, its out of my reach. Nick
