Thumbs up FLY FLY F-86 re-maidened in full colours!

Another decent day for flying so the Sabre had to be flown now that it's finished. 8 flights went well but last one had one gear that refused to retract. Turns out the FLY FLY worm gear stripped itself. Thankfully it extended fine with no issues for landing. This big bird flies like a dream.
Enjoy

Where did you pick this one up Eric? Looks like a really nice bird, and your paint scheme is on the money (like usual!)

Re: FLY FLY F-86 re-maidened in full colours!

The airframe and came from Hobbyking. The motor/fan and ESC came from either RC Castle or PW-RC (im not sure). It is a lot of airplane for the money.
Cheers

Hi Bob!
We'll have to fly them together to get some formation shots! It will probably happen in Ottawa next year.
Cheers Eric
