Looks great,The million dollar question, How Much?

Pretty neat!

I guess that addresses some of the complaints we sometimes hear about (a) the Bobcat being too much building for some folk, and (b) the gear-door brakes necessitating a gyro.

The larger size is certainly appealing. Guess you could call it the Bobcat XXL ;)

I think Harley has one, so hopefully I'll see it at the Fresno jet meet.

Worst kept secret in the business :-) (just kidding Bob!)

I just checked and can't find it. Although I heard about it through the grapevine. I was told $4200.00 GO FLY. I was also told there was going to be one at Miss. Afterburner. Don't hole me to this though.
Good Luck

I wonder if this is the sign of things to come, from what i know he will always have his kits, just thought i'd never see a BVM ARF. Interesting, and i'm sure this is not the only BVM ARF, especially if its popular.

Any indication as to how 'pleasant' the surprise will be?!!

"Speed range Very slow to very fast."

Good deal, I want a fast one;)


Price probably is typical... Figure the gofly bobcat xl at $2400 you know it wont be less, add some in for them to build and paint it.. Im guessing $3500ish.

Allright guys, just hang in there.

The Big Cat is nice and will be a sweetheart, I think we are all pretty sure about that.

Your questions will be answered on the BVM Website, not here. When BV wants us all to know what it cost, he will surely tell us via his site. Patience is a virtue and all great things come in time.

Now that's my kind of sport jet :D Bigger = Better. I'll bet it'll fly great with a P-80 - P-160.

Guy's

The model will be offered all white with the stripe job as an optional extra.
The "kit" will only be sold with complete U/C and Kevlar tanks, as you will need these straight away being an ARF!

Price will be around $4700 (nothing fixed yet) for the complete package-You don't have to have this one custom built!

The order list is growing fast...

I guess the bigger planes are the way to go . Looks just like the JMP Hustler to me, and they are shipping right now.
