The fuselage and canopy of the Xcalibur are superbly moulded from epoxy/glass, whilst the tailbooms and flying surfaces are constructed from CNC cut balsa and ply, beautifully assembled and then carefully covered with heatshrink film. The wings slide on to a substantial carbon fibre wing tube, being retained with neat moulded clamps, and the tailbooms can also be removed quickly for transport or storage. The Xcalibur is very quick to assemble, with excellent access to the turbine and on-board equipment, making maintenance and reliable operation much simpler. A specially designed fuel tank gives flight times of around the 10 minute mark, depending on the turbine being used and flying style.

• Fully aerobatic
• Perfect for grass flying fields
• Ideal for turbines from 50 to 100 Newton thrust
• Moulded epoxy/glass fuselage and canopy
• Removable nose section for easy access to batteries.
• Lightweight built-up and fully sheeted flying surfaces covered in film
• Moulded wheel wells stop the ingress of grass, small stones or water - protecting the valuable and vulnerable turbine
• Quick and easy assembly/disassembly for transport and storage
• Optional high volume fibreglass fuel tank available
• Super strong carbon fibre wing tube
• Superb flying characteristics
• Optional retract system with trailing link oleos available.
• Sleek aerodynamic design minimises drag allowing higher flying speeds
• Lightweight design and the effective flap enable exceptionally slow approaches and landings

Great looking intro jet can't wait to get mine.

Finally Customs have released the first shipment of Xcaliburs so for those who ordered them in the first batch we should be shipping by tomorrow and Monday.

Finally I test flew two Xcaliburs and they fly great the one has a Jet Central Rabbit and mine has a VT-80. I swear that mine with the VT80 is a bit faster but I also think is Lighter. However the one with the Rabbit I was able to go vertical right after takeoff

New Xcalibur with Thunderbird paint scheme available for delivery in December 2014.
 

New Xcalibur with Blue Angel Paint Scheme available for delivery in December 2014.
 

Can wait for mine TB coming for Christmas!

They will be here very soon. Maybe another two weeks depending on Customs. I did here that there are some issues in the LA ports. I hope that clears up by the time our ship gets there.

Have you got them yet?

Yes, the Xcalibur with Thunderbird paint and Blue Angel paint are in stock now.

You can contact with Jose at [email protected] for more information.

Thanks

got mine 3 weeks ago, will be finish in another 2 weeks. great jet easy built
going with a B90 evojet with 19# should be fun!

Congratulations moparman. I've flown this jet a lot and you will really enjoy it.
If you have any questions, just post them here.
Enjoy!

Well mine should be on the way to me shortly.....something else to builds during the frigid winter.....debating between the K100 or the K80 same size probably the 100.... humm.

HV servo Futaba sbus and JR mini....with Jeti electronics and telemetry, should be fun ;)

Sorry of your winter:cool: we here in sunny California fly all year long! Going flying Monday
to much flying is bad for building lol

You can keep your fire and earthquake I don't mind winter now that I'm retired..... :D

Looking forward to to start this one....

Daniel, I've flown the model with a VT 80, Rabbit and Rabbit SP. The 100N turbines will give you straight up climbs from takeoff. You will need a little throttle management during level flight as it will push the limit on speed.
Best of luck!

Thanks, I'm a pattern flyer so throttle management is not a problems....I just don't know if a 80n will be enough for good vertical....been flying since the mid 80's but it's my first turbine plane, so I don't practical reference....

Don't like snow, so I'll take my fire shake and rock n roll;)

Hi All,

I have installed the new Jet Central Turbines Lights on my Xcalibur. These lights are great and the controller is awesome as well. They run about $230 for the setup I have installed on my jet. Here are some pics.

This light kit comes with a total of 7 lights. Three strobes, red and green Nav, belly beacon and one landing light. You can ad additional landing lights on the other struts but I think it's not worth the trouble because the way the main struts go in the wheel well. These lights are also very bright.
