AirPower F-20 ARF 70mm EDF F-20 Jet
I saw a really nice AirPower F-20 ARF EDF kit over the weekend. I just purchased the kit from the web site. I watched several videos and read many posts before purchasing. I like the look of the F-20 and think it looks like a very good kit. I printed off the directions and they look fairly good as well. Does anyone have any experience with any of their models? If so please give me some hints, a review and any other help you might have! Thanks so much and I would be happy to help with anything you may need as well! Here is the website if you would like to look for yourself! Some of the accessories are just kick butt that they have for this bird!

I too just aquired this kit.
Nice looking arf , will just need to get the power system. Almost Double the cost of the arf.
WOuld like some nice micro retracts for it too.

I found some retracts from RCworldinternational that look really sweet! Here is the link to the retracts! I am going to try them. The weight is as low as micro retracts and they move in a scale manner. Dont need to mess with all of the junk for air retracts either.

PS email me back and let me know what you think. I have ordered from this place and they are very quick and send tracking numbers in a day or so.

for 40 size retract s that's light. I also am not sure about retracts with gear as operating mechanisims. One tooth breaks from a hard landing.....
retracts used to be gear driven , there may be reason that is not the common methoud any more.

I got my kit in and I have been looking at fans and motors Not sure the best way to go.
Have any of you flown yours yet. And what setup did you go with. I would like to get this
done right the first time around. I am new to edf. Will a 4s battery throw the C.G. off. I
would like to make it faster rather than slower. thanks for the help.
