Please post here if you want to be a beta tester for the new bearcat combat plane. Please DO not PM me for the request, I'm using this site to keep track of my offers. You will get just the kit, you will have to provide the glue and electronics, BUT you can order that from me at a discount.
Requirements:
Must provide a somewhat detailed description of the build
provide building pics
keep all comments here on the site
provide flight report and video
I will decide who will be asked to do a build thread in the forums

Hey guys.
I've been in contact with you for a few months now via RCgroups.com PMs under the same user-name (nutty_gnome). I still have the equipment and the interest in building and documenting one of these planes. Please send me a PM over there or let me know if you wish to have a phone call.
Your beta-testing requirements can be met. If you search under my user name on Rcgroups.com you can see what I've done in the past.
Cheers, N_G

Paul - I'd be interested in being one of your beta testors. I build slowly and precisely. Might be a good comparison to someone who builds based on the experience of building 100 previous kits.

Hi Paul,
I would love to be a beta tester for you. I have built 4 other airfoilz planes and would love to build and fly this one. I have all the nessesary equipment to get this plane in the air, so please let me give it a whirl.
Thanks, Chris Duval

Paul,
I replied about the zero, but either one would be a great project.

If your still looking for some builders I'd love to put one through it's paces. Then again if you ever do a Seafury I'd be all over that one. :)

In fact I just talked to my buddy and we'd be willing to build one of each and actually do some combat and get some good video of them doing what they do.

OK guys email me at paul@airfoilz.com with you address and airfoilz username, planes are shipping this week. Please remember that by receiving a kit you are required to ether provide a build thread stating that it's a "beta" kit and or provide video. I'd like a review in all the forums RCU, Ezone etc, maybe you guys can coordinate that with yourselves? If anyone need equipment please let me know and I can give you a discount on 3dxhobbies.com. Thank you all for you interest and help in our new line of aircraft!

Hey Paul,
I just sent you an e-mail. I can do a build thread here, RCgroups, Wattflyer and RCU. I'll also be more then happy to get some video. How close is the Zero? I have a buddy that would be interested in that one and then we could do some comparison of the two and we'd love to do some actual combat for the video camera too.
Anyway just let me know what your interested and I'll be more then happy to do it.
