F5-E Tiger "Camo" ARF R/C Jet

30-1/2" wingspan, 51" long, 35 oz. flying weight. This camouflage painted F-5 is an almost-ready-to-fly jet. The only additional items you need are a 6-channel transmitter, receiver, and a lithium battery charger that can charge the included 4 cell 2200 mAh flight battery; everything else is included. Some easy assembly is required: you must glue the wings and tail onto the fuselage and install the control horns and pushrods to the pre-installed servos. A set of retracts are included. The main gear must be screwed into the wings and connected to the pre-installed retract servos. The steerable/retractable nose gear is pre-installed. The airplane includes 9 pre-installed servos, a 70mm ducted fan unit with outrunner brushless motor, a 40A speed control, a 4 cell 2200 mAh lipoly battery pack, retractable landing gear and assorted hardware. Assembly takes only a couple of hours. This jet has plenty of power to take off from a smooth surface or runway. The speed range is moderate with very good manners. Difficult to stall, the jet will slow to a crawl and still maintain full control. Great to land, the approach is easy to control and smooth landings are easy to do. For 6 channels: Ailerons (2 servos), Elevator (2 servos), Rudder, Nose wheel steering, Retracts (3 servos) and Throttle.

that's mad! i'm new to RC's but are there commercial jets like this that have landiing gears and don't require someone to throw them into the air? hit me back ASAP

[HobbyLobbyRC]

Yes there are many jets with landing gear. Check our our website listed in the video for more planes and videos.

@wekwafe yes, the E-flite super airliner is a great commercial jet.

I purchased this same jet... but from Hobbyking, not hobby-lobby(same exact jet though)... BEC burned/smoked up during build/testing(not even flown), a retract servo also smoked up during testing. Couldn't get retracts to center(the main gear retracts are NOT adjustible, just a fixed pushrod from servo to retract, no adjustment available - couldn't get them to stop twtiching, so took them off). Jet flies ok(after I fixed it up and put $100 MORE into it...).
