64mm 4S Freewing F/A-18 High Performance EDF Jet "Royal Maces" - Receiver Ready (PNP) - FJ10713P
Version Info: This version now comes with a 2840-2850Kv brushless inrunner motor with new 12-Blade EDF and new 40A ESC with Thrust Reversing function.
The Boeing F/A-18 Hornet is a twin-engine supersonic, all-weather carrier-capable multirole combat jet, designed as both a fighter and attack aircraft (F/A designation for Fighter/Attack). Designed by McDonnell Douglas and Northrop, the F/A-18 was derived from the latter's YF-17 in the 1970s for use by the United States Navy and Marine Corps. The Hornet is also used by the air forces of several other nations. The U.S. Navy's Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, has used the Hornet since 1986.
The clean lines, stealth profile, and scale details are all captured in this exceptional 64mm EDF Jet from Freewing Models. Simplicity and durability were major design factors with this model. All airfoil surfaces (main wings, and elevators) are attached to the fuselage using a new modular joiner system which improves strength and allows easy parts replacement. Quality electronic components come pre-installed so you can be in the air in less then one hour.

If you fly on a dirt runway it bends a little on takeoff and landing, on paved runway if there are any bumps or cracks the gear will bend. Every time you bend them back they get weaker. Buy extra!! Freewing, please make a stronger set of gear for this plane. The nose wheel is holding up probably because of that plastic brace that is on it

I have the 2836 3300 KV motor 12 blade.. I removed the week 40 amp ESC.. installed a 60 amp ESC.. and I was able to run a 5S battery.. 2200 milliamp 40 c... And my F-18 was clocked over 115 mph... That's pretty good for a 64 I got the fastest one... It's even faster than the new f9f panther that freeway came up with.. I recommend everybody that gets the F-18 remove that motor and go with it 28 36 3300 KV... This motor is capable of running on the 4S or 5S... If you got manicure grass the 5S is the best way to go... And change out the tires to Dave Brown tires they are a lot of work but they're worth it you're going to have to make brass bushings and drill out the wheels in order for these to fit... I got two of this if if 18 super hornets... These are the high performance but free wing removes the good motors and they put the cheap ones in and they still call it high performance.. they need to reinstall back the 2836 3300 KV motors they're much better they rev a lot higher and remember these are 12 blade..

Great flying little hot rod! Easy to take off and land. Don’t fly too far away, it disappears very quickly. Well worth the price.
