Default BVM finally got it right!!!

Just kidding!!!!! I got the new Bandit Hi Viz ARF kit. This is a very rare color scheme, at this point, it is not advertised on the website. The pics are 5 mins after being out of the box. No more home heat or food for a while now[&:]. MY Yellow and blue Bandit RTF w/Wren SS "may be" going on the selling block now!!! I got the Yellow/blue/red one while waiting for a Navy scheme, no regrets thu, love them all.....I Always have said, once you fly a Bandit you are hooked for life[:@].

Very nice, I have been continplating on the ARF Bandit to be my next jet. I wonder if the retract plates will accomidate Robart retracts or would that require a big mod?

Not sure, but I think a P120 turned down a bit may be the ticket here. I love my Wren SS, but I feel the need, the need for speed

I have found out that any time you try to retro fit a major part with BVM jets, you end up with other problems [:@]....most of the time, not always. It cost me three pipes [:@]to get the Wren SS ( BVM does not have a set up for the Wren) to run to my satisfaction[&:]..

Go for it, you can't go wrong with a Bandit[8D]

Figuroa,
You're welcome.
Since you are so close to Winter Springs, why not call Patti at 407-327-6333 and arrange a factory tour? You might find it worthwhile, and I'm sure you would be very favorably impressed with the BVM factory operations.
Also, come to Florida Jets and see the rest of the BVM product line at the big tent.
See you there!

I did not know BVM was coming out with this awesome scheme! I really liked the way David Shulman's Ultra Bandit looked in that scheme. I had purchased a Comp ARF Flash in all white, (can't afford a Bandit ARf yet,But want one very bad) So I figured I would do the Navy Trainer scheme on my Flash, I finished painting it last weekend, Then I saw this thread .I hope Bob or David don't get pissed for using their scheme on My jet. This is my second Turbine jet and I hope to have it at florida jets. Jack. P.S.will post a pic tonight , my images won't upload .

As long as the Navy doesn't get mad at BVM for using the military look I'm sure BVM is sorta bound to let you slide, just this once.

Thx Dustin. Tell Uncle Bob to make this an option for the Bandit ARF and the kit should have the hard points installed in the wings at the factory

I may be starting on the Hi Viz soon so it will be good timing.
