REST ASSURED we’ll add the lacking particulars!
Talking of variants, we’ve obtained lots of requests for an F3 / ADV mannequin – we’re sorry however for the time being it won’t be a part of the bundle, which is able to “solely” embrace the IDS, GR.1 and ECR fashions.
Whereas the ADV is cool and all (and had some nice liveries) it’s structurally fairly completely different from the opposite variants, and we wish to keep centered on these (not to mention the truth that the F.3/ADV shouldn’t be documented in addition to the opposite variants).
Perhaps it will change in future, however don’t anticipate this to be a part of the preliminary launch.For the time being, the bundle construction is in place and the exterior mannequin is completed – aside from the payload and the mannequin variations which shouldn’t take lengthy to finish.
We’re transferring ahead with the cockpit – as we advised in a earlier publish, we weren’t pleased with the standard our 3D property and we’ve determined to redo just about all the things. It was a painful choice, however we expect it was the proper one.
HOPEFULLY we must always be capable of present you the pilot cockpit in a few weeks.Our present BEST estimate is {that a} Beta could also be prepared someday in early September.
