Default SKYMASTER 1/5 F86

I just saw antons video he sent me of the 1/5 scale F86 test flight yesterday he made,It looks fantastic
and a great size for a JET CAT P160/AMT PEGASUS Or maybe even a AMT OLYMPUS! I can not wait to get mine
i ordered it straight away after seeing the test flight.The best looking jet ever designed in my eyes.

I have the video as well. It is not the best quality but you can see the plane flying VERY nicely.

I'll see if I can post it here soon.

OK Here it is. It is with prototype flying surfaces. The production composite version will be finished soon.

Anton,

Any update on the large F-86? when will the official release date be?

do you or your dealers have any updates on the Skyhawk as well, the web site still states 'coming soon'.

Come on lads, don't keep us in the dark

Cheers Mark!

I see from the above postings that you have placed an order already, do you know the pricing for the 1/5th scale F-86?

I am sure I am not the only one waiting to get their hands on this latest Skymaster kit

DEAR GW,

I just got this back from SKYMASTER now.

Dear Mark

The large new F86 Sabre is under development and we are to test the composite wing at the moment.

I'll keep you informed as soon as it is ready for production.

Best regards

John

What email address are you using that gets the attention of Skymaster? I have been trying to get a reply to emails sent to various Skymaster addresses with no luck.

Cheers Mark, still sounds like it is a while off before production staets, shame.

Strange on the communication, I am in Taiwan (work here and in China) and I saw LiKai on RCU yesterday but he is not replying to many of the Skymaster related postings either (only set up for 1.6 scale F-16) have not seen Anton on in a while but he is always busy running the China factory.

Lets hope they come out with some specifics on the new toolings they will release for 2008, they have a lot of interested customers chewing their nails waiting to hear something.

Hello GW

I'm an engineer and focus on landing gears production/development, but I do not sell any jet kit. So I really don't know the condition of stock. I think the best way is asking Anton and I'll tell him to contact with you.

Best regards

Hi LiKai,

Saw that you were on-line.

Thanks for the below, no pressure on poor Anton, I know he is busy, we were exchanging e-mails a while ago, he just seems to have 'gone off air' since Chinese New Year (surely he still cannot have a hang over ) there are a lot of guys on RCU that would love to hear some updates from him

How is the weather up in Taipei? its good down here in Taichung[8D]

Hi Gw

The weather is cold, cloudy and rainy here, But it is not a problem for me, because I have not fly any thing about 3 months till now and can not see any chance that I can fly in the next 2 months.

Welcome to Taipei!

Hahaha, I know the feeling, the weather has been bad for a little while now, looks bad for the weekend as well []

Keep up the excellent work and if you hear anything more on the 1/5 scale F-86 or Skyhawk schedule from Anton, can you let us know, sorry for the pressure

Gw
