Default RE: FLy Eagle Jet Models

I'm just starting on our FEJ F-15, but as far as I can see, its an exact copy of the Skymaster/Xtreme Jets/Fei Bao one. I built one of those for a friend of mine and that's what lead me to get this one for my son Louie.

That F-15 was an *excellent* flying airplane. He had a P-120 in his and that's what we have for ours. The P-120 is perfect for this airplane. Its not going to go much faster than with a P-80, but takeoffs and verticals are much better with the P-120 and it does wicked high-alpha stuff with the P-120 which would not nearly as much fun with less power.

As I said above, I don't see much (if any) difference in the FEJ F-15 vs. the others, so except for having to deal with the hardware, oleo springs, and possibly leaky air cylinders, I think that the FEJ model is a good deal...
