We need more F-16's. A 1/7.325 scale would be great. </p>

According to the FEJ website, the F-4 can be orderinthe single or twin turbine version, similar to the 1/7 scale F-15. The introductory price is more than $3800 USD. Seems a bit pricey considering the issues reported on the previously released models, such as the F-18F and F-15.

Well, jeeze, SOMEBODY has to - otherwise the problems will never be found. The problem with FEJ is, they never learn any lessons and make the necessary improvements - in that model OR the next model they produce...

The new F-4 is 106" L and 70" ws. It should be really nice. </p>

I have sent over info on the F-14 I have and they have already made the few changes I could find. They have proven to be VERY good about listening and fixing problems.</p>

Mongo, I really don't think I have more money than sense, I just like a challenge! I don't mind finding problems and helping FEJ and us customers. Just out to have a good time!</p>

Wex,
 out of curiosity, what were you not happy with on the F-14?  It looks great in the pics, but theirs alot we can't see..  Or is this things that will be brought up in the build thread?

We need someone to produce an F15 to suit the MW44, or MW54.. Skymaster had one on display at Jetpower a couple of years ago &amp; it looked great. Unfortunately for some unknown reason, it never went into production.

Yes. Hopefully they will realise there is a big market for small engine size jets, that is not being taken advantage of. Larger seems to be flavour of the month at present.

Thomas, there were just a few things from the initial look. One thing is, I told them to leave the names of the pilots off! It's just all run together if you look at it. That way we can all put on what we want anyway! Another were the wing tip lights..they were the wrong colors. Lastely QC...there was some delamination on one stab and they immediately sent out a new one! Again, just a few little things, but things that should be done to make it right for production. Construction looks great so far! Getting the list of everything together now. Then we start!</p>
