I ve just got F105 trumpeter for 70 usd from hong kong.
good bargain i think ( it's about 100usd in europe)
Does anybody have references for brass metal landing gear ?
The original one seems to be too light for this huge model.

There is a company or two that are doing F105 updates for the gear and intakes and I believe some other goodies. Go to www.largescaleplanes.com and look on that site for the
info.

Hey, Bat,

What website or hobby outlet did you get the Thud from? That's the best price so far! And was shipping expensive......?

Aloha,
