If in doubt, sell the airframe and keep the engine and ancillaries, F16's are quite forgiving when flown correctly but I just feel at that size of bird it's quite a lot to take onboard. It may sound funny but it might be worth having a go on Sim to see how you can combat the characteristics etc. Best of luck!

Mmmm..
I forgot to ask one more question...
As you know this is my first jet and i dont have an idea about the airpower valve for landing gears and breaks. 
I mean how many valves should i buy? And what is the best one to buy it ?
My plane is already ready but this the only item is missing. 
At least if anyone can let me know the name and the quantity please. 

Accept my apologize for bothering all of you.

Shigaardi when you say ready what do you exactly mean and you only need an airpower valve ? how is your canopy for example opening and closing and how do the lock/unlock latches work? do you have operational airbrakes on this? can you post pictures to see the status so we can help you better since you decided to fly this bird?

Shi do yourself a favor and convert the gear to electric, use air for brakes, canopy, gear doors.

At the very least find a fellow Jet modeler in your area and let them guide you some. You need help in person from someone that flies jets. If you do not it WILL crash.

Shigaardi i see that you want to finish this project even if our suggestion is NOT to fly it yet so i can suggest that you start building it and post pictures here with your progress or questions and a lot of people here will help you through the process. I can understand that you may be far away from other jet people in emirates to get local help so if you want to get some help from this forum you need to give us something to work with you.Since you have no experience in Jets you may have already installed some components in your F16 that may need a second look or advice from some of the guys here. This is an expensive toy no matter how much money you have and is always sad to see one going down from negligence.

Hi Shigaardi.
Take your plane to the Al Lisaili model field on Friday at the end of the afternoon ( from 4 pm ). You will find there about 20 experienced jet modeller who will be more than happy to help you.

How large is dubai? Olinco is also there according to his location.. i'd be looking him up for some assistance. as previously noted, you have spent a lot to get what you have.. do not get impatient as the possibility for crashing is very high and you will walk away with nothing.

... oh.. too late, he found you! Thanks Oli
