which ARTF EDF jet?
Hi all,

I'm after a cheap (around £100 +-50) ARTF/RTF/BNF EDF jet.

Ideally it should only require a 2.4ghz transmitter and maybe a battery for the model.

Looked around and the only ones I could find were £200+
There seems to be quite a lot around that already include the transmitter, but as I already have a dx6i it seems silly to buy another.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Cheers,
Danny

I have the art Tech Eurofighter.
Comes with a 2.4ghz set for about £140ish. Not sure if you can get it without the radio though.

Sussex Model Centre were doing the F35 for a lot less than that ... about 100 quid I seem to remember. Other places doing F35 for about 120 - 130 quid ...
In fact there's plenty around ... Mirage at 130 of ebay etc.
All RTF ...

The eurofighters not bad. decent power from it to give it jet-ish performance. Just dont set the elevators up as per the instructions, it likes much more.

I just wonder if a delta based wing is suitable for beginner ? I've watched various Youtube vids of the Artech Eurofighter which is same and it exhibits that characteristic nose up wallowy approach ...

I remember when I had the Mirage 2000 with ST-60 bluehead up front ... boy did that land hard ! Delta's love that nose up to come in as we all try to get them to slow down ... wheels touch and BHAM that nose comes down ....
With such large wing area - difficult to 'grease it in' ....

Only a comment ...

RE: which ARTF EDF jet?
Did you get anything in the end ?

As indicates in another thread - I bought the Skyangel 50mm Mini T-45 EDF .......... marvelous on a 25C 3S .... Hobbyking .. total about 70 quid delivered ... ARF - all I did was add LiPo, Rx and Tx.
