Hey guys, the 1/5 f-16 is a new offering from BVM. It is in the PNP family and follows in the foot steps of it little (1/6th) brother. The 1/5th is in fact a new offering a features opening canopy, lights, scale gear, very nice (aluminum mechanism) speed brakes, servos and smoke system installed. Power is a Behotec 220.

The model I flew at the show was assembled at the field! After I was satisfied with the assembly and it passed all my checks, we took it to a friends airfield and put 3 flights on it before returning to Fl Jets.

The plane weighs just over 45lbs dry and flies absolutely amazing!

It is brand new, I believe BVM is now taking orders and will have full details on their site when ready.
