F16 Gen 2 and my (F16 V3 older version)

f16_gen_2_and_my_f16_v3_older_version_aircraft_image_1

Latest F16 is the Gen 2. I have learned alot in the past 8 months and it all shows on the latest Gen 2 Viper. You will learn a few things with this new iteration. You DONT need a wing spar and you can fly a jet like this with 2 servos and NO control linkages or push rods. This viper uses the symmetrical servo head glued into a slot in the Taileron. it flies amazingly well and has so much control authority it almost feels thrust vectored. ENJOY!

Jet comes in at 770g AUW with a mix of gyroid and grid infill

F16XL 50mm EDF jet

Ok guys, the long awaited F16/XL will not disappoint. Its super easy to print, build and fly. It could be one of the best flying airframes i've ever flown. Please watch my flight video below to see how well this actually flies. It flies slow and fast. the envelope is giant! It has all the fantastic qualities of a delta wing design but better EDF efficiency because of the intake design and also maneuverability due to the cranked delta wing. simply amazing. You can scale this plane to any size you want.

SU-47 Twin 40mm EDF Jet

This was my greatest accomplishment to date. From the start everything went exactly as planned. This forward swept winged beauty flies like a beginner jet but also will challenge even the experienced pilot. NOTHING at your field will be as cool or badass as this in the air... nothing. Like all my planes. this is easy to print. it can be printed on a 220/220/220 bed. it glues together with CA glue. builds in about 2 hours if youre familiar with my style. It hand launches as easy as my trainer jets and lands like a Pillow!!

F7U Cutlass 50mm EDF Jet

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 X-36 50mm EDF jet

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.

F4D Skyray 50mm EDF Jet

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

YF-23 Black Widow twin 50mm EDF

yf-23_black_widow_twin_50mm_edf_aircraft_image_1

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.

Cartoon Mirage 2000 50mm EDF!

cartoon_mirage_2000_50mm_edf_aircraft_image_1

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
