r/c A-4 Skyhawk due September

By Alfa.....looks about 1/18 judging by the Beaufighter beside it (which is 1/17)...both planes were about the same length in real life. It will be made of foam of course, come painted and with decals shown. Expect a price of $140-ish or less.

Need a new link. That one doesn't work.

Odd. The link only works on IE - couldn't get it to work on Firefox.

Nice pic though. I'd love to terrorize the neighbourhood with that Beaufighter.

Funny how much you see that happening - links work in IE but not Firefox :roll: .

Cool little plane. Must avoid if at all possible - too tempting to keep as an RC and buzz the neighborhood.

I really like the Beaufighter Aferg. I know you showed it to us before, but I had forgotten how nice it looked.

The reason that the link doesn't work is because there is a space character (ASCII 32) at the end of the URL which is REQUIRED to view the link. Firefox is truncating the white space off (in this case, erroneously) and IE is not. Thought you might appreciate having that mystery solved.

Looking at the pic of the Beaufighter, it looks like it would be a doable project for one of the companies.

looks like this is going to be too big. Wingspan is 22 inches.......about 1/15 scale.
