    Beautiful edf in the air great flying for a beginner James lol I don't have an F-4 in my hanger so I'll order one soon I'll put in a Spectrum AR631 reciever to bind up with my Spectrum DX8 transmitter 😉👍🛩

    What a beautiful model, the only detail missing is the centerline drop tank. The wing tanks on the phantom were rarely used. More room for the weapons rails. VF-103 Sluggers, U.S.S. Forrestal CV-59, 81-83.

    Can't wait to reach this level. I've just started with a 30mm edf mirage I built to train for a 64mm f35. I'd love to be able to fly a 90mm jet like this. Just the whistle as it glides by is amazing

      ​ @Motion RC @James T, it's not the diameter of the EDF, it's the airframe,t/w,wingloading,etc that dictates ease of use.
      My first ever(and so far only) EDF was the freewing Skyhawk. Never regreted the decision.
      Get a Delta, 80mm. Can't do too much wrong.

      @@0304051324 from what I've worked out, wing loading increases at larger scales. Should I account for that when comparing or do they compare directly? Also, the mirage has a wing loading of around 2.5 kg/m². Is that good? It seems to be working fine

      If you look closely at a "B" model the chin dome is a smooth curve. I'm referring to that added hump. I've had my hands on every variant of the real airplane. The only variant with that "hump" on the bottom of the radome was the D.

    Flight notes: I swapped the edf from stock 1750 as it was underperforming for my taste to the 1900kv edf and yes it has met my expectations. It’s deceptively fast I thing due to its size. It presents excellently. Very smooth flier. Vintage fighter aerobatics accomplished with ease. Plz note I found full throttle verticals shocking. The speed this plane reaches can catch you off guard. Deff need a good sized field to fly. Straight level passes at full throttle are surprisingly fast, as I said she get to it very well indeed. Landings are a piece of cake. Make your turn to final a nice graceful turn and with elevator throttle management you’ll be rewarded with the prettiest approaches ever. Phantom reminds me of the big WARTHOG the way it flies silky smooth and predictable. Clown with the ooovo 100c six cell pack. This plane checks all the boxes. Pay attention when adjusting the linkages. There is a slight fairing on the fuse to Align flaps to then ailerons. I highly suggest a heavy duty pushrod on the elevator. This plane worth the money if you love phantoms. Even to just hang it from the ceiling.

    LOL mine become a 3D Phantom, everyone in the field look and said, is a goner, in the turn I was slow, and suddenly the Phantom went down like a rock vertically, in 40 feets altitud in the turn for final, with a 6000, I give her full throttle and elevator up, all full rates, and the wing start rocking with the plane still going down, I pull the nose up at the sky going down and then lower the nose and she pull out from the stall. No you first edf for sure but flight fast and like an arrow.

      Definitely not for beginners. Sounds like the pucker factor was up on that flight!

    I wish I had enough money to buy this jet. At the moment I don't own any jets. Just prop driven planes

    That looks more like 90 cm not 90 mm.

      90mm refers to the edf unit, not the model itself
