its a twin turbo prop. Built by Kerry Sterner and flown by FranK Alvarez. Kerry says it has about 75 pounds of combined thrust from the two wren turbo props, Frank said it flys well on one engine! Props are zingers that are married in a custom built jig. Sounds really cool at speed. Wing span is a mere 118 inches. Makes me miss my turbo raven!!!!!!!!!

At least its a jet. I do not understand prop NON Jets at JETEVENTS. Just because its big and expensive?? If so them we need flightline time to smoke cubans. They are big,expensive and not everyone has one. Oh! Its a jet event not a smoker. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f...wink_smile.gif

Jerry Caudle built and painted for Top Gun a few years ago. I just spruced it up a little. Great flying plane btw.

Thanks for posting pics! Any idea who makes the yellow f-86?
It's a BVM 80'' Sabre. Joe Rafalowski built and painted it.

When you get tired of owning that F-86, I'll buy it.

Hey Gene!! Thanks for the pictures! Who's proto type of Bipe? Love to know who manufactures it? Thanks! Dan

Heya Dan,
This is the new Quantum by Tomahawk. We are the exclusive dealer for Tomahawk in the US and Canada and have the kit in stock, here in North Carolina, one already with the shown finish. Or we can have it drop shipped. I did around 10 flights on it in Wilson this weekend - what a blast!
