Release date from Great Planes is November 15th for North america so yes most of us will have to wait a little longer.One of our members from Sav centrl lives in Japan and got his a few days ago and is just going thru breakin and maybe has 8 tanks thru and says its a real beast .More power than his STS28 and SH.28 and a real user friendly powerband.Breakin went well in typical OS fashion and so far everything sounds good.I'll be preordering mine as I'm sure the first batch will go FAST!!!
