Description
The ideal introduction to Scale RC Jets, designed to advance your RC EDF Jet experience.
Background
The F/A-18 Hornet, developed by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) for the U.S. Navy, is a supersonic, multi-role fighter with a versatile design. It can serve both as a fighter and attack aircraft, excelling in air-to-air, air-to-ground, and air-to-sea missions. First flown in 1974 and introduced in 1983, the F/A-18 became the U.S. Navy's primary carrier-based fighter after the retirement of the F-14 in 2006.
Introduction
FMS introduces the all-new 64mm F/A-18, featuring a completely redesigned mold with larger dimensions, sleeker contours, and improved detailing. The high-fidelity version includes CNC-machined front landing gear, realistic rear landing gear, and navigation lights for added realism. Powered by a 64mm 12-blade ducted fan, 2840-KV3150 motor, and 40A ESC, it offers excellent stability and precise control for edf jet beginners.

Notes to Buyers
① RTF (Ready to Fly) airplanes come with everything you need to fly in the box. A transmitter, receiver, battery, charger, and all other required electronics are included and pre-installed from the factory.
② PNP (Plug-and-Play) airplanes include the ESC, motor, and servos all pre-installed from the factory. Transmitter, receiver, battery, and charger are not included.
③ EPO foam and cockpits can bubble or deform in high heat. To prevent this, avoid leaving them in direct sunlight when not in use.
④ Reflex V3 is not included and can be purchased separately.
⑤ The 4-channel receiver is the standard configuration, with the option to upgrade to a 6-channel receiver for advanced features like Thrust Reverse and Reflex Control.
⑥ The F/A-18 is best suited for takeoff and landing on smooth, paved surfaces. For snow or grass operation, try hand-launching and belly landing for a better experience.
