WOW x10 AGAIN !!! Sheesh ! You make me want to stuff all of mine in the trash - LOL !! Absolutely outstanding - your level of detail is remarkable - you even weight-relieve the inner gear wells ........ and it flies like it's on rails - well piloted as well my friend ! That would have my thumbs pretty rubbery until it was down I'm sure !

congratulation Tim, very impressive model and flight. Gianluca

[@TinkerManRC]

gino _vant1 Hi Gino Thanks for the nice compliment Tim

[@danpos1971]

Nice plane and good flying. It looks like it can use up a lot of runway fast! Very complex looking plane. It sounds very cool. It also looks like a real plane in the air. Very nice scheme. The dark blue looks great. I bet you guys keep your planes in tip top shape and do a very complete pre-flight check flying from there. Plenty of places to lose a plane.

[@TinkerManRC]

Dan P Hi Dan Yes you are right thanks fro the nice comment and compliment..Tim

[@hussmeister792]

The grass must be greener on the other side. Jealous much? Ever heard that it's rude to covet thy neighbor's goods? Where's YOUR A-4, and how did YOU make the money for it? no class......

[@vincentmounsey]

[@TinkerManRC]

vincent mounsey Yes was nervous LOL thanks for commenting ..

[@ramrodrod]

Excellent BA A-4 repro . . .just one detail . . .the canopy yellow stripe is missing . . .also the wheel wells , not the fairing doors, go white . . .can't tell if yours are . . .regards . . .
