So she's now on sale, we have seen a few reviews, time laps builds, photos. I've ordered my one (might order a few more). It has power functions but no remote. My ideas...

• Remote Control
  
• Steerable front nose wheel
  
• Lights
  

What are your ideas?

A water plane mod maybe?

Buy two, and make a bigger version out of it? 4 engines, twice the length, etc.

Add a working rudder.

A working rudder shouldn't be too difficult.. Also, making it bigger, more c-130 like, and add guns to the side and a Fulton recovery system and make it a Combat Talon

This is tempting.....just 2X on it all

The white panels would be nice for vehicles (f1 cars, e30 :P )

Variable pitch propellers and working rudder would be mine choices.

this is what i'm gonna do with all those white parts ;)

Working rudder and fake piston engines for the props would be my first easy mods. Then maybe steerable nose wheel and alterable blade pitch control then most difficult would be full set of working pilot and co-pilot flight controls for rudder, elevators, ailerons and so on.

Yeah C-130 gun ship :) I see a 109 Howitzer and maybe a couple vulcan guns for good measure, LOL.

Some MOD/MOC this is going too bed

Well, what are you waiting for?

I'm only getting ideas. Never done a moc before. Also my cargo plane too be delivered. Just had 42024 delivered

I can't wait to get my hands on the 42025.

Reading the BI made me wonder why there aren't any windows in the fuselage.

Maybe one of these MODs will do the trick

Nice!!!

You are going to sell the white parts and buy this used car?

Though i will wait to get the plane until i can get a good discount on the MSRP my ideas would be:

• remove the lifting mechanism for the nose as this would be rather uncommon for a plane of this size

• working cockpit joysticks and pedals (i am thinking about the flex system here

• working rudder connected to steerable nose wheel

I built mine last night, superb model, I think it needs quite a bit of modding though.

Looks like a nice set. I'm not totally against stickers, but this one has WAY to many.

You're not wrong, this is a massive sticker set, just under 60 if I remember correctly, none cover any joins though so not too bad.

Here's a better image.

Final model looks very nice! But those windows look really tacky. I'm not going to buy this set myself, so I'm looking forward to see what you guys improve in it.

I probably buy this set, but it will be for parts so I don't have to worry about the stickers anyway.

In fairness, I see this set only as an massive collection of white parts. I will wait for it go down in price on amazon.

Dont understand me wrong, it does look nice, but price... ouch.

I would like to see a full grey version..
