Great job. I have hand launched mines and it was no problem. Had a problem with the wing came off in flight but they replaced my plane. Im using the ljs1400 and 5s 4000.. Will post videos soon..
Flys great man...Your landing was perfect. I fly the same setup and I'm afraid to slow it dwon that much. I will practice that now since I know it can be done :)
Whos the rookie on the cam?

What altitude are you flying at? I'm hesitant to go EDF up here at 5700 ft.

I'm at just under 1000ft I believe. 5700 is up there but I know there are guys flying EDF at that altitude & above.

I'm at about 200ft. You won't get the same performance. But, you should be good at 5700.

i'm looking to buy that model or the het f-18 but i'll be using a mega 16\20\2 4s 3300...have you hand launch your f-16 before??

I have not HL mine. But, I know there are guys that do. I'm sure it will HL okay. Before my bungee I used to HL my HET F-18 with NiMH batts.

Do not try a hand launch with the F-16, the f-18 can be done, but the f-16 I give you a 50/50 chance of pulling it off. Use a bungee...trust me.

Thanks.:) One thing I did was sand the intake lip a bit to keep the edge from catching the grass.
Yes, this is the 2W-20, CC60 ESC, HET fan & 4s3300 Thunder Power Extreme V2 cells.
