Everything looks good so far. I did have damage to the tall pipe. Contacted MotionRC and they sent me a new one right away. I have not started assembling the jet yet but from what I’ve seen everything looks good.

Buyer beware: the weakest part of this Blackhorse Mig-29 jet is the gear and brakes—they are very poor quality. We ended up replacing the wheel and brakes with Banana Hobby's 75mm wheel and brakes, which work exceptionally well. However, the front nose gear cannot support the aircraft's weight—27 lbs when empty, 33 lbs at flying weight SW140. During takeoff and landing, the front gear will collapse. To fix this, we replaced the front strut with a stiffer spring—green spring inside to improve support. Yellow spring was installed by the manufacture.

I have been flying it more more than 6 months, I did the following changes:-Configured rudders as airbrake (inward movement)-Moved CG aft, 4cm-Added 500cc smoke tank Watch the video with this setuphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jm7uL1j4Xto&ab_channel=GuillermoHGWith the CG change it flies more agile and it´s much more capable, also it lands more smootly. I did not have any issues with the stock bifurcated pipe as I´ve seen some complaints online.My only complain is the brakes, if you are using a runway it really does not stop the plane that much. If you really care about this you might want to change the brake controller

Wow! what can I say a lot first off Motion RC shipped it to me super fast like they always do so Thanks! Motion RC for that second it got here in perfect shape BH did a super good job of packing it was double boxed big box for a big jet and inside the box the fuse looked like a Mummy the way it was wrapped so Very Good packing and so real happy with all of that and last the jet its big its Beautiful and I love it! so far I think its worth every penny but like others have said it will need a stronger pipe and better brakes but other than that this is a really nice jet for the price your getting a lot I love it so much I am going to buy next the BH L-39 this jet the Mig I think was put together well with care so I am really liking the Black Horse Models for sure so far Thanks Again!
