Volantex adds a striking F-16 Falcon to its ever expanding ready-to-fly range, combining classic fighter jet styling with brushless power and easy to fly characteristics.
The F-16’s rear-mounted 30mm ducted fan power unit maintains classic jet styling, while its four-channel control includes working ailerons for more involved flying as skills develop. Volantex’s Xpilot stabilisation system offers three selectable settings: Full Assist, Partial Assist and Soft Assist. Pilots can start with more support and reduce it as they gain experience.
For added fun, dedicated controls provide one-key take-off, aerobatics and a U-turn manoeuvre. The aircraft also features a soft protective nose, flexible FLEEX foam construction and carbon fibre reinforcement rods. If hand launch and belly landings are not your thing, simply connect the spring wire gear for traditional take off and landings.
The model arrives assembled and includes a 2.4GHz four-channel transmitter, 7.4V 550mAh lithium battery, charging cable and manual. Low battery and range alerts provide audible warnings during flight. Just four AA batteries for the transmitter are needed to complete the package.
Finished in a distinctive grey scheme with red accents and South Dakota ANG markings, the Volantex F-16 Falcon.
