Default BVM F-100 "F"

This is the finest kit on the planet! (IMHO) Thanks to BV, Dan Gill, Promark and a lot of help from fellow modelers.

Hi Kenny

You know, I think your build on the Yellow F-18 is WAY more impressive. With my kit, all you have to do is follow the directions. I enjoy the detailing so it's a great way to spend my time. Plus, I got some really good items from Dan Gill, Justin Sands, Paul Hopkins and Promark to detail it out. I have enjoyed every minute of the building and finishing. Everything fits and is engineered to do the job.

I would love to try the Yellow kit, but I am not sure I'm up to it.

Thanks. The F-18 is not the easiest thing in the world to build, but man when it comes to detail that thing takes the cake! I love the "figure this out" part of the build, but I am just not patient enough to do that type of detail work. Give me your address and I will send the beast to you after I "figure it out", you can do the detailing!

What are you powering it with?

I purchased the new AMT NL Olympus-HP full electric auto start thanks to some reccomendations. It is now rated at over 50#. I'll bet that will do the job!

Out of curiosity, why is the plane labeled "experimental" ?

This "F" version is a privately (civilian) owned F-100. I think it requires that designation for FAA approval, but basically I just put on markings as per the real one.
You can see the real one here
