Ron needed another Viper like I need his F-16... wait what a good idea.

Congrats ron! Let me know if you need someone to keep your F-16 warm while you fly the vipers. [sm=thumbup.gif]

Love the pilot. He is actualy very much look alike the real test pilot for the ViperjetII. Seen all their promos.
Hope everything goes well on the maiden.

Eddie,

That is a 1/4 scale pilot that John Weaver sent me from RC-Direct It fits perfect in the cockpit of this plane.

Well the Maiden happen today with Major Issues (my WORDS) & Ron did a Outstanding job dealing with the Loss of the Rudder(horn pulled out/breaking the hinges and departing the airframe)after first turn and a then dealing with a FLAP issue..
Great Job Ron.
