[sondoe01]

Nice video!

I have a parkzone t-28 and a parkzone P-51d mustang bl. I wanna take it to the next level. Do you think i could handle this airplane. Is it easy to hand launsh.

Please answer

[AirShowFan22]

what scale is it 70mm ?

[endlent]

i buy today one and i gonna tomorow test fly it !

how long is the fly time ?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Depends on what battery you're going to use. We're seeing about 6 minutes with our packs.

[codeengine]

what about the ar6100 receiver with the dx5e transmitter will that setup work

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Technically the DX5e will work but honestly you'll probably want a computer radio that you can adjust travel endpoints, expo and some other features. So yes, it will work but not the best solution.

[spitfireMK22]

Can you fly an Eflite F16 with the dx5e that comes with the Parkzone Corsair f4u???

[HorizonRCdotCom]

You can but I would definitely use a receiver that utilizes a remote receiver such as the AR6200.

[spitfireMK22]

Are there perticular servo i need to use or wat? and is there any modifing i have to do to get them in

[HorizonRCdotCom]

I've got E-flite S60's in mine (EFLRS60 is the P/N) and they work great. You might need to trim a little foam but really they're pretty much a drop-in installation. You can also use a similar size digital servo if you want to.

[spitfireMK22]

Can you guys do a preveiw of the E-Flite 20-300 biplane.Ive always wanted a better look at this model a preveiw video would be great!!!!!

[spitfireMK22]

Does this mean i have to put in push rods myself?. sorry for so many questions but im not really that experienced with installing servo's, push rods etc.

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Correct. They're pretty simple to do and the manual does a great job of outlining how long they should be and such.

[spitfireMK22]

Are they included or do i have to buy push rods myself? Do i glue in the servo's? If i was using the AR500 do i need a y connecter for the elevator servo's since there's 2 and only one elevator port?

If i need to glue anything what glue do i use?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

It's no biggie. Yes, you'll need to install the pushrods but they're really easy. It'll take you just a couple minutes. You actually will use your AUX input on your receiver and need to setup a mix is all. That's how I have mine. You will glue or servo tape the servos in the wings into place and the ones on the elevators screw into place. You can use Hot Glue, Shoe-Goo or Canopy Glue for that installation.

[spitfireMK22]

Is there any glue that comes with the aircraft? Does the Manual for any Spectrum radio tell you how to mix? Is there any servo exstensions needed?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

No, you'll need that separate. Yes, the DX6i and DX7 both have mixing and you will need some extensions. YouTube blocks me putting links in the comments for some reason but if you visit the product page on the Horizon Hobby website, search for EFL7075 you can view the F-16 manual under the "Support" section.

Im using a dx5 didn't come with a model must im assuming there the exact same xmitter and it works great

[ilikecheetos12]

i got a ton of e flight gear....heli stuff that is....ive always been a fan of f-16s ever since iron eagle. i got a dx6i with my blade 400, and i could use that with this jet....it looks very nice.

[blanchbacker]

lol stable, it's a hangar!!!

[Rcflyer71]

heh,why u sorry that ure adding an awesome plane to your rc collection?

[cgjohnst]

I want one of these so badly. Does anyone sell them completely rtf with the tx?

[qsecgtyhd]

not much longer HAHAHAHAH....thats a bold statement to be coming from Horizon....i have yet to see the MCX show up online.....

itll be spring time before that thing hits full production

[HorizonRCdotCom]

There's available stock now of this particular plane. I just flew one of these today for the first time myself and was very impressed.

In regards to the mCX you won't see it shown as "Available" on the web until all the back orders are filled. The best way to get one is to back order one now, basically saving a "Spot in line" for yourself.

[canadianmaple09]

At 0:34... WTF? A stable is where you keep horses! A hangar is where you keep airplanes buddy!

[cgjohnst]

wow lol, that's pretty bad.

[drftdmon82]

looks nice aside from that intake.... way too large

[scottphillips88]

This thing looks totally AWESOME!!

[wlollpop]

can't wait!

[flyinghobbies]

will this come in PNP (plug in play)?

[forrest225]

Most of the e-flight planes are ARF

[forrest225]

Yep he just said its arf

[startazz]

sweet looking aircraft but i would want a diffrent paint scheme lol,5*

[v6greenfbird95]

i agree i would imagine on a day with bright white clouds could be hard to see the model

[spitfireMK22]

wow i have first veiw
