Overview

The FMS F-18 Fighter is modeled after the F/A-18 Hornet, which fulfilled both fighter and attack aircraft duties. The first prototype of the Hornet was introduced on November 18, 1978. It entered service to the US Navy and Marine Corps in 1981. The Hornet has proven itself time and time again during Desert Storm, Operation Southern Watch and the Desert Fox strikes against Iraq in December of 1998. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, Hornets dominated the aerial campaign by carrying out strikes, close air support, refueling, anti-shipping, and forward air control missions.

True to the original, this F-18 EDF Jet has everything: high-speed flying, real jet style aerobatics and has one of the finest low-speed characteristics of any ducted fan airplane ever. Larger than most EDFs and pushers, the F-18 has a huge presence in the sky, just like the real Hornets. The F-18 Fighter is made with high-quality foam which gives it unparalleled durability.

FAQ

PNP (plug-n-play) models require a transmitter, receiver, battery (in this case a 14.8v 2600 35C Lipo Battery is recommended) and a charger for it.

This model is a PNP, which means no receiver is installed. To get SAFE mode you would need to add a receiver such as the Spektrum AR637T.

The EDF unit is FMM64MM11B 11-Blade Ducted Fan, 64mm.

This model does not have rudder control. The nose wheel is steerable.
