BNF: 'Bind-N-Fly'....The terminology used amoung Spektrum/JR users.

That means the RX (reciever) is already installed. In other words, you'll use your own JR/Spektrun TX (transmitter) for the plane.

Please note you cannot use a BNF model with any other radio brand... you would have to install the same brand RX in the plane/heli/car/boat.

Just an FYI, Planes/helis of that size (price too) are strictly indoor aircraft, like a large gym for instance. Outside operation is possible, but on DEAD CALM days.

As File IFR stated, BNF (Bind-N-Fly) means the plane is ready to bind to a JR/Spektrum Radio. You provide the radio for the plane.

The RTF version (Reath To Fly) comes with a radio. Everything you need to fly is included in the box. You do not have to provide a radio for this plane as one is included.

The BNF if cheaper because it doesn't include a radio
