Default RE: Combat models jets

HI GUYS, I have enjoyed my cm f-16 , with ys 45, on 30% heli fuel , makes nice smoke trail. it is a good trainer, for flying and building, LOTS of work involved. video that comes with kit is great. but mine weighs about 10 lbs. maybe that was builders fault. but makes it a little lacking vert. only flown off asphault. 70 flights so far. funny story,, nose gear colapsed on take off,, went off end of runway still full throttle,,blew 30lbs of plowed dirt 15ft in the air out tail pipe behind it as it scooped it in the intake.looked like a drag boat rooster tail. went out of sight over edge of small drop off past end of runway about 80ft. turned off radio,laughing,went to pick up pieces. as i walked to the plane i noticed it was still running and no damage. shut it off. carried it back to pits and dumped another 5lbs of dirt out of intake and tailpipe. fixed gear, flew rest of day. its a fun plane, had bad vert fin flutter first flights,beafed it up, went away. i have turbine planes now so 16 rest in my mueseum. but may sell it if someone is interested.

I have a used YS 45 SE complete with tuned pipe, header, coupler, in excellent condition, great bearings and compression. Also included is a complete set of gaskets, O rings, diaphrams, etc for a complete rebuild when needed. Additionally a new in package high performance piston and sleeve from precision model products comes as well. Asking $300 US, will not part out.

I also have a new in box F-16N kit complete except for the tail cone. I have drawings to make a replacement one. Asking $275 US.

I can combine shipping (the motor will easily fit into the plane's box). I will not sell the F-16 unless the engine has sold.

If interested PM me. Thanks

Hey all, i've got a question. Does anyone know what song is playing in the background on the CBM A-10 video when they have the footage of the Real A-10 doing low level strafing runs? I think its by Pink Floyd but not sure and i don't know the name. any help would be awesome!!!

Thanx

Kyle
