Red Rocket!

Recommended Posts

A little flight where I blast out of Mos Eisley (I mean Gillespie, CA), head east over San Diego (first pic), turn north then over Miramar, cross the shoreline near Oceanside, then west for a landing at Catalina Island (KAVX)

Torquesim Pocket Rocket XP11.50b10 vulkan - it's an experimental and I HIGHLY recommend it...You can easily do 6 miles a minute at altitude!

Beautiful set. I was also looking to buy it. I saw the sale price and got really excited, until I saw who the seller was, then I ran out of there.


A pilot is always learning and I LOVE to learn.

Why?  I've had ZERO issues with the seller and I've been buying from them for about 5 years.

I'm sorry, and confused.  Not to hijack the screenshots venue.  But what in heck are you talking about.  I have four purchases from them and no issues whatsoever.

Have I been living in a cave or something.

Have you checked out their forum lately? https://forums.x-pilot.com/forums/forum/230-torquesimafm/

They have been very responsive and move quickly to adapt to the ever changing environment. Nothing but praise for Coop, Cameron, & NoJoe.

And, as Ryan said, this is almost too much airplane. You only need about a third of the resources available, the rest is gravy. Needless to say, I highly recommend the aircraft.

Yeah I agree....I'm just thinking "must get her up in the air" - takeoff is challenging!  But once in the air, gear flaps up and climb baby climb!

Sorry Ryan. I did not mean to hijack your thread.

It's a beautiful looking airplane, but my early experiences with the seller left me so disgusted that I decided never to buy anything from that seller again.

It's ok it's good to have continuing discussions about vendors.  Still though, people and companies can change, I urge you to reconsider...it's a really lovely addon!
