Another surprising model like the Mig 17, the odd shaped wings and unique control surfaces was really an unknown entity. the maiden flight in heavy winds quicky showed me how great this little plane is. Its an easy, print, build and flyer. Its got really good thrust for having a nose intake with a shock cone obstructing the airflow. Everyone at the field really loved it. I brought it to the field with friends, i didnt film those flights but it flew as stable as a large scale P51 and large 80mm sport jets. Great all around jet. Parts Needed: Any 50mm EDF.
