The F7U Cutlass was a carrier based US navy jet. It may not have been the greatest US carrier fighter but it sure flies great as an RC jet! super docile and super predictable. Just like all my planes it prints easy, builds easy and flies amazing. This and the F4D Skyray can be considered trainer jets 100%. if you're looking for an easy to fly and throw edf this is it. Dont let that stop you from buying it if your intermediate or expert. it still rips!

NASA designed the X-36 to be a tailless fighter agility research vehicle. I always loved how it looked and wanted the challenge to make it fly. The vertical tail version flies very well! super agile and has very light wing loading. The build is very easy. It hand launches very easily and flies with a very unique character. I would say this plane is an intermediate and above. If you run a gyro or flight stabilizer its can be a beginner plane because of the slow speed abilities.

You'd be hard pressed to find another edf Jet easier to fly, foam (purchased) or 3d printed. This is 100% the easiest EDF jet to fly I've flow or seen fly on youtube. It prints fantastic and it assembles easily. This Skyray hand launches super easy and will fly at 1/2 throttle and land like butter. Like I said, this can be an EDF trainer or it can be a fun fast aerobatic jet.

Any 50mm power unit
I prefer the Powerfun 50mm with a 4s
4S lipo 1300-2200 works perfect
2 9g MG servos
velcro
2 magnets
Hot glue for the motor

This is by far my best design to date. The fit and finish. The lines and the packaging. The YF-23 has been one of those models that is extremely difficult to not only design but fly and fly well. When I fly a design for the first time (maiden) and it flies like this did... its a winner. IMO there have been ONLY 2 RC YF23's that flew well. the banana hobby version from 8 years ago and mine. You wont see a more stunning looking jet fly at your field period. This thing has incredible presence when its flying.

I was genuinely surprised at how well this flew on its maiden flight. It was literally perfect. The only thing i had to adjust was the roll rate. This jet prints extremely easy and can be built in 1 hour!!

plane is 22.0" (559mm) long and 20.0" (508mm) wide. You can print this on a 220/220/220 build plate

parts used
Power fun 50mm 4s
1300-1500 4s recommended. 2200 4s can work fine just a little heavier
velcro
assorted magnets
2x 9G MG servos

This jet really surprised me. I wasnt sure if it was going to have F-18 flying character or be something like it. To my surprise it feels like a very stable F18 without the crazy authority. I'm able to really enjoy flying this plane on 3s! with a 4s the hand launches will be easier and slightly heavier. I cant really say anything bad about the flight characteristics. Every time I fly the jet i feel like its super scale and predictable.

This is the same design as my 64mm with modifications to the scale for the 50mm xfly EDF and also reworked servo pockets for 9g servos. It flies exactly the same as my 64mm but it lands way softer.

This jet is only 595g FLYING WEIGHT with a 4s 1300!

32.0" (813mm) long
19.0" (483mm) wingspan

The pocket rocket was originally designed to be a super easy to print and really easy to assemble. It uses a 50 mm EDF from X fly. The design is extremely efficient and easy to fly. I designed a self leveling and stabilizing wing. The canopy can be friction fit or you can add magnets if you choose there are only 15 pieces to print the build plate volume is 220 x 2 20 x 220. I was able to print this in two build plates.

This Gripen flies like you mated my F16 with my Mirage 2000. it rolls like a drill bit and will cobra! flies very stable. My wing design makes my jets fly like they have a gyro inside. this will not wing tip stall. it will gently drop the nose. hand launches super easy. Very easy to print and build.
