The plans I sent PPlace were just the small print of them in the Model Aviation Mag. They are copyrighted so sending you the digital scan of full-size plans would be illegal anyway.

Well, with the disappointment of anything new this past October I'm not holding my breath.

All I have to say is... DO NOT UPGRADE TO WINDOWS 10!!!!!!!!!!!!! For the love of all that is holy do not do it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydUI-s18Zx8 Seems that .NET 4.6 in Windows 10 creates all the problems...

Malvern OH. There is a private full-scale field they typically shoot at.

Yeah... I thought "OH! that's me!!" Hopefully some momentum can be gathered of there for some custom content like photofields of their locations.

So is the new sales model to strip down the current version and package it to a specific audience and charge more?

In my experience, this has been a great tool to validate a design. Its fairly accurate, but not perfect.

This is all a very interesting conversation... and one that has been had before time and again. The reality always comes down to how much fun you make it with the tools you have. Personally, I've grown past making models for any sim and honestly, I rarely fly the sim anymore. I'm at the field...

No, don't mind at all. The FT planes are a good place to start modeling for RF IMO. They are very basic airframes with minimal compound curves. Its great to get your feet wet and refine your skills and efficiency of building. The physics are also predictable so hours of refining are avoided...

Looking great!

You do know there is an EA on the swap pages already right? Those wheels look cool though
