This very impressive F-18 Super Hornet is manufactured in EPO foam and is beautifully finished in an authentic USAF color scheme with the decals pre-applied at the factory. The F-18 is modeled on an airplane from MX 46 Squadron, the Marine Experimental Squadron that tests radar, targeting, and weapons systems. it even sports a pair of Sidewinder missiles on the wing tips. A low parts count means that assembly of the F-18 Super Hornet is quick and easy. It comes mainly pre-built with the 50mm 12-bladed EDF, motor, ESC, and servos pre-installed. All you need to do is glue on the nose cone, plug in the two wings (these are held in place with strong magnets), assemble the tail parts, and install your chosen receiver and battery, that's it!

This EDF uses a 3S battery set-up which gives it the extra power to do those huge looping and vertical maneuvers that fast jets are renown for, it also looks fantastic when doing fast, low passes over the take-off strip. The flight characteristics of the F-18 do not stop with fast-flying only, the slow-speed handling is exceptional as well, with slow, high-alpha passes being a breeze to perform. The F-18 has outstanding flight characteristics in its own right, it flies like it is on rails. 

To summarize, the F-18 Super Hornet is quick and simple to build, it is tough, and flies very smooth and stable in all weather with loads of power and speed. This super cool F-18 Super Hornet is a must-have to add to your squadron of airplanes!

Power Board - PRO SERIES - Red (4104)

Power Board - PRO SERIES - Red (4104)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All NEW 4000 SERIES! *with Digital Readout and Touch-button programming.

Description:

Completely redesigned from the ground up, with these new Power Boards you are able to use 2 batteries with redundancy to avoid possible crashes from battery failure. Simply plug in your batteries with XT-60 style connectors to this Power Board Expander (Our LiFe batteries are perfect for this) and you now have 2 batteries working in tandem to supply your servos AND ignition.

 

These new versions offer SEVERAL new features:
1) Digital read out on all models - displaying voltage going IN and OUT of all devices (see photo)
2) LED and audible alarm for all models that you can set to warn when your system drops below a voltage of your choosing
3) TOUCH button programming to select your warning voltage
4) Wires to your RX are PRE-installed
5) Enclosed lightweight and strong plastic housing
6) XT-60 Connectors

 

 

The Power Board board electronically isolates the batteries from each other so that there is no interference possible from your ignition. It also regulates the voltage down to an ideal voltage to your RX (5v) and then is select-able to your servos (yellow and black units only - the red unit offers the same voltage as your batteries to the servos).

You can Plug in, up to 8 servos into the board (12 servos with the Black Power Board), which has 2 outputs for EACH channel, effectively DOUBLING the number of servos you can use in a plane ( a total of 16 output channels) without reducing the amperage (that a Y cable would cause).

These Power Boards also features LED lights to give you clear indication that your batteries are connected and working properly, as well as voltage etc.

 

They feature a mounting space in the middle to mount your RX and also include mounting hardware to mount it securely to your plane.
