With dual 360 degree thrust vector nozzles the jet comes complete
with a powerful 90mm fan unit with a 1750Kv outrunner brushless motor
pre-installed and an 85 amp ESC with switch mode BEC. The foam airframe
is completely pre-painted and decorated and comes with 9 servos
pre-installed. Carbon tubes reinforce the wings. The aluminium landing
gear is sprung to absorb some of the landing loads and is retractable.
Landing gear are servo-less and do not require end point adjustment;
they are actuated by small electric motors and worm drives, and operate
at a scale-like speed without the need for slowdown modules. Included is
a 7-LED Midnight Flyer light system with bright red, green and white
LEDs!
The only items required but not included are a 7-channel radio system
and a 6-cell flight battery of about 3700mAh (two 3-cell packs can be
used).
Assembly is straight forward and each step is covered in the
photo-illustrated assembly manual.
The programming of the radio is also covered in a step-by-step
process. The airframe includes two 360 degree thrust vectoring nozzles
for some wild aerobatics and great low-speed, high-alpha handling. Even
at very low forward speed the rudder function of the nozzles keeps the
model in perfect control. Take-offs are powerful; the fan and motor
system produce over 80 oz. of thrust. The jet has a broad speed range
with solid handling throughout. It can be flown in a scale manner or
take it to the wild side with some all-out thrust vector spins and
flips.
