Post by: wonder on November 15, 2008, 01:31:47 PM

Just saw this on ebay, and thought that a expensive model plane to get.Looks good but not going to pay that price.Would you pay that price.

That's got to be one of the biggest rip offs I've seen for a pinball mod. It doesn't even have a motor. All plastic. You even have to build it and paint it yourself. Tell him he's dreaming!

Gotta admit it does look pretty good, but not for that price!

Maybe if it had a motorised prop... but even then it's too expensive for what it is.

?????? Holy crap.

Pinball specific parts and the $$$ - amazing huh??

Now if i had an Indy that was missing this part, id be off to the model shop for a bi plane kit and install a mini motor in the front. a quick tap into the 5 or 12v supply and you could have a turning propellor too!

In fact i have a tiny wee motor here from jaycar that runs off a solar panel - so approx 1.5v?

All i need is an Indy pinball

Thats what i thought as well.The only thing that  put me off is the ridiculous price,might check out the hobby shop and see if their got something similar.  I suppose you can give him ten of ten for trying.
