Is there another option for an upgraded ruins/path of adventure thing. I like the look and would like to do something.
On topic I will take a pilot. I am in batch 3. Curious what other things will evolve before that batch is produced

You mean the POA red rails?
Quoted from KornFreak28:You mean the POA red rails?
Yeah, I think that’s what he meant. What was Williams thinking with the red plastic? Yuck.
I meant the ruins that look like jungle around the idol and if I remember right there was a mod that goes next to the path of adventure over the jackpot shots that go around. I think lior made them but no longer does/wants to. I was wondering if there was another option. Although I agree I don’t love the red around the path.

The ramp mod?

This is interesting. The original biplane looks like a masterpiece next to original fighter plastic (hard to call it plane).
George, your fighter looks like a pro next to biplane. Your improvement helps a lot on biplane, but now the fighter is in another league.

Thanks Davi!

In for both planes! 
...Can you make me one for IMDN too? Same thing, guns on the wings, spinny prop, etc.

Is it a possibility you could make this fly in the air? 
Before I post pics, Please be advised (in case you want my ultimate weapon, if not, disregard) All biplanes, are currently being worked on. Batch 1 biplanes are done pending some motors and some props. Batch 2 biplanes are entering the early stages of transformation.
If anybody from Batch 1 or batch 2 wants the tiger moth, it would have to be a separate order. Cannot cancel original biplane order. Sorry I didn’t unveil this beauty before but this is something that I developed last week. It was never my intention to work on the tiger moth, but I guess my creative juices got the best of me....again!
It is a MUCH MUCH more difficult plane to work on, way more difficult than the original plane! It takes 3 maybe 4 times as long, it is much more expensive and it’s a special limited edition only! Once my supply runs out, that’s it. This is for the most demanding plane owner!
I’ve had this tiger moth for months! Not sure if a spinning prop was even possible, I stored it inside a box and forgot about it.
Last week, I decided to give the beutiful tiger moth a try and boy am I glad I did! It was hard work, and it took lots of hours to complete. Lots of modifications were made. This is my first time working on a tiger moth and now I know exactly what it takes to make more with a far less modifications. The second tiger moth will look even better!
I even painted the prop just like the movie! Chrome nose, wood color with tri-colored prop tips. Looks amazing when spinning!
Unlike the original biplane which is held in place from the front and the rear, My plan is to anchor the tiger moth plane using a modified bracket that would hold it from the rear only which would make it look like it’s suspended in air. I’ll make the modified bracket today and post pics. Using the standard bracket for now.
The tiger moth has clean lines and beautiful spacers between the wings. I added extra tension wires to it. The tiger moth also comes with landing gear and pilot window
Enough words....Pics coming!
I give you......My Ultimate weapon! Muaahhahahahahahha!!!!!!

Maybe! 
Quoted from Psw757:Looks good - have to figure out how to put a gun turret in the back seat!
Working on that....
Quoted from Psw757:What’s the price?
Allow me a few hours to figure that out. Out with the family at the moment
Quoted from Kerry_Richard:George... I'm in on the 3rd Tiger Moth. Looks Great!
Thank You!
Did you determine the best location to wire these up to work as original does but with spinning props as well?
I understand there are several spots for different effects, but what works best in conjunction with what the dmd is doing?
Quoted from KornFreak28:Next to original for comparison

YOU BASTARD! 
Godammit George! Evil Bro. Just...evil.
Gawd I love ya.

I recommend you insert the wires for both planes into the ruins flasher connector, right ramp flasher connector or fighter plane harness connector. Once I ship hopefully this weekend, I’ll post detailed instructions

Sorry!!! My creative juices took me into uncharted territory! 
Quoted from keys88:I’ll take a Tiger Moth.
Awesome! You do realize the biplane can’t be cancelled correct? Work on biplanes started already. So you’ll end up with 2 biplanes. As long as you are OK with that, you got it! You can later sell the one of the biplanes on ebay
Know that whatever he is charging is more than reasonable considering the work needed to produce these. I will take the upgraded one. As a batch three guy I have a long wait
Really fantastic work!!

Batch 3 people can afford to not send in their original biplane only if you get on the exclusive tiger moth list. If you don’t you can just send in your original biplane. Again, the tiger moth is a Halloween special edition and will not last but a few days, maybe a few more hours

Yes, thank you! As it is, The tiger moth is really difficult to work on without a spinning prop! Adding the motor and prop takes the difficulty to a whole new level. Price will be reasonable but fair to me as well
5 of the 7 tiger moths I have available have been claimed! Will try to get a few more before I close the tiger moth order. I may have an 8th tiger moth available in the next few days. For people ordering the tiger moth, some form of payment will have to be made before I work on them. Too much work involved and cannot have people cancel on me. If you don’t pay, we just work on your original biplane and pass the tiger moth to someone else. I’ll collect payment for the tiger moth after I ship batch 1! Hopefully this weekend! Can’t wait!

Who wants to see the real deal biplane in action?
[quoted image]
Isn't the real one a stampe? ;p
"The actual plane used in the filming of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was a Belgian Stampe SV.4 biplane. Its actual registration is G-BHFG. The presence of a tailwheel and the flush wing tank separates it from a British De Havilland DH 82 Tiger Moth." - http://indianajones.wikia.com/wiki/German_biplane
I just bought this one yesterday. I'd been looking for one for the past 3 years!!!!

Regardless, yours still looks fantastic!

Yeah you mean this one? Very difficult to find! Plus, that is not the correct scale! That is 1:50 scale, we need 1:48 scale which makes the tiger moth the correct one for this mod. The tiger moth is as close as it gets in the correct scale. Find me a stampe in 1:48 scale and then we can talk
18C984BE-3B85-47AD-900F-603DDB7AC445 (resized).jpegarrg. seller says its 1:48 that picture says 1:50 (never knew such a size existed).
Whats the approximate wing span on your tiger 1:48?
My fighter is around 30mm wider than my biplane.

Yeah you can install that one but it is not the correct scale. Almost impossible to find! I’m soldering motors at the moment. I might be able to check on that later
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:Your killing me Korn. Tiger moth, my mind is going to explode.
I know Eric, sorry about that my friend! It wasn’t intentional, I promise
I just cannot stop!!! I need help!!!
The 1st step is admitting you need help.

Hi every one, my name is Eric.

Guys, please don’t think your original biplane is a second class citizen to the tiger moth ( 
) Your original biplane will look cool as hell and you will like it a lot! The tiger moth is only for the most demanding plane owners! Again, your original biplane will get the best treatment possible and will rock your game just like the tiger moth! Well sorta
If you were to ask me, I’ll say the tiger moth is only if you intend to keep your game forever. If you plan on selling it later, the biplane will do just fine.
BTW, one more tiger moth was just claimed! Only one left! Hopefully I can get some more soon!
Quoted from RobertWinter:I'll take the last Tiger Moth if available...
You got it! Are you in batch 3 by any chance?
