Will had asked in previous threads here at WT for a Demo Team Video of the real world A10, and other support. Will is a 757 Commercial ATP pilot and very accomplished scale R/C modeler. Should see a linup of his fleet. Will and I have been Flying a great deal of LOCK ON together, it has been a great experiance. Hes a good friend. Would like to see more support from WT family if its available.

I recall he said that he had Some DM related Decal Sets.

I could swing by and pick it up and then forward it to him via broadband.

Dice-Man thanks, a demo vid would be excellent. I had a set of DM markings made up the AC is CAPT. Mark Allen. AC # 236. Here is a link to the progress on RC universe .com http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_318300/mpage_7/tm.htm
Look through the pages up to page 10 now but start at page 1 and youll see the history. I really need a demo vid or a couple of them so I can put together a 6-8 minute demo routine.
Thanks Mudd.

Whiteside, if MrMudd says to help, I will do all I can. I have a couple of friends at DM and I think they may be very interested in your project. Would it be OK for if I posted info on your project on my website and use some of the pics posted here to see if I can stir-up some interest at DM?

I'll be busy all day tomorrow but will get on finding the vids I have Monday...do you need anything else.. like pictutes of DM jets or anything?

Something just caught my eye and made me think, no cheap shots now, you say you're going to paint your model as a West Coast demo jet and put together a 6-8 demo routine?

The model is fully loaded with munitions in one of the above pics, can they be removed? If not a demo jet paint job and routine would not look right (IMHO) with a fully loaded jet. Maybe a FAC type routine like can be found on the 2002 Capstone video would be better..what do you guys think?

Right Now the Model is on the Edge of Legal Scale jet Competition limits.

The pylons and Weapons are individually removable.

For his Display he will have the Weapons, For the Flight (Demo Routine) they would be removed. I believe their weight is a contributer for exceeding the 55lb limit.

MrMudd, I uploaded the video to my website and sent the URL to Will. Got an email from his this morning saying he couldn't download the vid... maybe I typed the URL wrong. Sent him the URL again and now waiting to hear back from him. If he can't get it you can come get a copy anytime ....you do remember 15:00-18:00 is nap time for me!! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Mudd, he got the demo vid and I'm going to send him a copy of Capstone 2202 tomorrow. I told him <b>you</b> owe me a beer (or 2) for postage! <img src=newicons/anim_lol.gif border=0 align=middle>

What would really help him is if we can get ahold of a Demo pilot or someone willing to give up a "Aerobatics Routine Card."

let me see what I can do with my contacts at DM, after all he is going to paint the jet (model) in the West Coast demo colors...might be able to get DM some PR and him the info he needs.

Dice, thanks. Dont worry about the cheap shots. I have tried to be scale where I could afford it. There is a 55 lb weight limit with turbine models for the American Model Assoc. That includes fuel for a 6-8 minute flight. At approx 8-9 oz/min X2. means I can carry fuel for about that amount of time with enough fuel for the overhead and pitchout to flameout and still be under the legal weight. Its going to be close. The stores and all plyons weigh about 3 lbs so yes they are all removable. I am interested in the diff between a FAC Demo and the clean demo. I assume one is aerobatic and the other is operational? Keep the videos coming, they are great! I appreciate all the tech advice. My goal is just to put on a 6-8 scale flight.
Will
