As the title says. I have an old amt mercury and thought I'd see if anyone has a budget priced jet that it would fit.
Starfire, cyclone, kangaroo, etc.
Just checking 😊

I have Al W's old hotspot kit. I've seen videos of them flying on as little as 14lb, but they are known to fly much better with something like 40lb!

Kidding of course... I think Dahlgren might still have an old (green glass) Yellow F-16 though.

Yes but would you be willing to part with a hotspot kit is the big question! The next question would be, parting with it aside, I also have a spare pegasus, I wonder if a pegasus would fit on a hotspot?

I'll ask John about the F16.
Thanks Kelly

Andrew, the old SPADJet video link doesn't work. Got an updated link?
