I also have the Yellow F-16.but I think the Yellow F-16's kit making work is more difficult than Skymaster F-16.Because the Skymaster is ARF ,it's more easy..tks for ur suggestion
piece.
PIC:MY Yellow F-16 very hard working.........

I change my Yellow F16 model for F16 A/B, I am love it.But Yellow F16 is kit of therefore the expenditure time is quite long, regarding time limited me said this is the quite laborious work.
Other than that, a very fine model. Very true to landing gear scale, best one I'd say.

Hi FalconWings, according to specs the jet will fly between a 12lbs to a 17lbs. From the videos I have seen it seems to fly great with 14lbs but I am not sure how the 2lbs less will affect performance, I guess you would have to build it very light and maybe get the elevon version.
I will be instaling a Super BEE (14lbs) on the tail, I will let you know how it handles when I do the maiden...

Watching the videos on the Airpac site makes me think, they will fly fine on 12lbs. I on the other hand chose to power mine with an Jetcentral Falcon mounted conventionally (vs tail). We have been waiting to fly these three for the last couple of weeks but have not due to work, weather etc. etc. They will all be flown this weekend though Very quick building subjects with excellent fit and finish.
BTW, anyone looking for extra fuel should know that the Sullivan BT-16 tank fits perfectly between the main tanks on top of the inlet.

Hi Craig,
I currently don't have anything clear but you should get the idea with these. I did not use the plate former that came with the kit and chose to install all the equipment spread out in the nose low as to keep the room for the detailed cockpit when it becomes available. The tank is a good solid fit with just a couple of foam pieces.
Let me know if you have any quetions.
Thanks - Adil

Congrats on your Maiden... How much time did it took you to build this F-16? I seemed very fast...[X(]
Got any videos???
Very nice pictures, specially the installation ones, they give me a couple of ideas on to where put things in mine.

Tony,
Congratulations !! enjoy the tiger. I am sure you will have a lot of fun with it.
I can’t wait for our shipment to arrive next week. A lot of people are waiting for those planes. I just left the Skymaster factory in China. This weekend I will be in Taiwan before I head by back to Office. I hope I could find some time to visit your field and see you guys fly. How far is your field from Chiayi? I have your phone number and I will try to call you some time.

RE: Arrival!!Skymaster F-16 Tiger meet is coming
i saw 2 of the skymaster f-16s flying at the New England Jet rally this past weekend .. could not ask for a better flying F-16 ... even some of the rougher landings would stick like glue .. the plane can come in very slow and nose high .. at full speed its a rocket with agile performance ..
