Luca made it clear he was not having difficulty, just that he has to balance production with his resources between development and current support.

All is well on the Lynx/Oxy side. That would be awesome if Duncan joined the team but Oxy is still growing, likely not ready for that kind of team pilot.

I keep asking about the Oxy 9 or 10 to compete with the Velos 880 but it appears the Oxy 4 is more probable.

As I said, very unlikely to happen. But it would be far more interesting than him going to SAB, Mikado or Align.

It would be pretty hilarious if he joined team horizon and only flew micros

He'd have to beat up James Haley and take over the "big man on campus" position.

He is not enough precise and calm for Mikado, in my opinion. French temper vs German order. However the new Logo is comming and Kyle D. is out for competitions next year...
Align is rather moving towards quads...

I think James can take him.

Maybe he nearly bankrupted Gaui is broken parts! Lol.

Actually he was being considered by TSA before he went to Gaui but TSA decided no go and Gaui picked him up. I do know his parts tab is pretty hefty. I say he's a good fit for SAB. Possibly could put Align back in the forefront especially if they have something new in the works. There is the possibility someone like Core or other newcomer may pick him up but I would expect that to be short lived. He may be a good choice for reviving TT as well but who knows. JR Forza is a good fit for him as well. That heli is fast and suits his style I think.

He flew for TSA before Gaui; look up TSA and Dunkan B.

TSA apparently let him and Timo Curlis at the same time.

Timo has flown the Shape S8 in comps...

Maybe as they know each other he'll also be flying the S8...?

Interesting, but hard to believe. Evolution can't seem to even get kits together, I guess time will tell.

Ahhh I had my story a little confused. I think TSA didn't want to foot the parts bill! Lol!

At IRCHA a couple of years ago he was replacing gears after every flight or two. He just beats the snot out of those poor Helis.

Why leave the team though? Surely you'd just take a smaller role.
