Bob,

I really struggled when I placed my order, I wanted the Rafael also, but I wanted it a bit larger 91" long or so. It looks great. I will definitely give you guys the low down as soon as I get them. I may even become their rep. if things workout.

Regards,
Mike

Hi Guys,

I would be there on December 12 and will take a look and let you know if they are two thumbs up or down. Send me a PM if you want me to take a special look at them.

By the way, I am going for a group buy for my jet club, I might be able to work out a discount with them. So let me know if you want to do that. I can piggy bag these planes in the next container of my plastic goods back to USA.

I am very interested in their AT3. It looks like a good sports jet. It's a Taiwanese Air Force Jet Trainer. I wonder what would happen if I try to fly that in China.

Just got a reply email:

Hi Sir:
Thank you for interest and support of our products and we really appreciate
it.
The shipping to Ohio via Air Freight will cost about $221 for one of Rafale.
So, the total will be like 900+221=$1121
When you decide to place it, please allow me to send you an invoice by
paypal, and will add 1% extra fee for paypal.
Thank you so much, looking forward to your reply.
Best regards

Hi Mike

Thanks I apreciate it.
My buddies and I wish to place an order for 5 planes for us, and are very curious to learn from someone else rather from the company about the quality of these planes.
In the website they look OK but we desperately need close up pics from you! and general opinion about it.
which color scheme did you take?

Thanks and looking forward to see your pics.

Sounds good. Are the gear door hinges & cylinders included, or are they an extra?

How much fuel can the F-16 carry? I'm looking for at least 100oz or more.

thanks,

JR

Ok Boys and girls (if any[sm=72_72.gif]), I think we have hit the jackpot. I got the F-16 today and it looks fabulous. The workmanship looks very solid. This a ARF jet kit, what do I mean by a kit…hhhuumm, I work for an aerospace company where we manufacture systems for space, airborne, sea and ground. When we kit an assembly to the floor, all pieces that are necessary to build and test that part is issued to the floor where the operators do not need anything else to build the hardware with…….This Jet is one of those kits, the only thing that we need to supply is the a bit of Hysol for a few pieces, the turbine and the radio. They provide all the linkages, hinges, horns, servo mounts, …… Man I am excited, I have bought ARFs before, but nothing with this quality. The gears….oh let me tell you about the gears…..The tires are inflatable, kind A cool, the gear mounts and assembly is very solid, it is made of machined aluminum parts none of that forged or formed sheet metal or aluminum stuff, It looks like they start with a solid block of aluminum and machine it down. Get this, the gears are pre installed……nice. They even provide a carbon fiber bypass (bottom half only at least that is all I have seen so far). There is quite a bit of panel lines and all markings are there. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure……..I can’t wait to get the F-15 now, I think old Santa has been good to me this year….. [sm=lol.gif] For some reaon the system is not letting me upload pictures, I will try it on another post. Hang on guys......
