Mine flew great.. Similar throws to my YA F/A-18..
I wasn't happy with the amount of throws the ailerons were getting .. So I converted it t tailerons.. Flew a lot better..

I found it doesn't take much throws on the ailerons to make this guy to roll. I get beautiful axial rolls out of my YA F-16 using just ailerons.
Looks a lot like mine! Right Shaun?

Chico,
Hehe, I was thinking the same thing. This one is apparently in San Diego, but I don't know anything else about it. I still have one NIB. One o' these days. How's yours doing?

It's doing well, still definitely a little bit of a pucker factor flying it. I don't get nearly as much time as I used to for flying. Also been working on the P-40 again little by little, took a break after the new year for a few months.

Isn't the Yellow F-16 closer to 1/9.6 scale than 1/8th? I flew Byron 1/8th f-16s back in the day and they were bigger than Yellow or BVM F-16s at the time. Just sayin.............

I think you are right, the Yellow was1/ 9.3, the BVM was 1/9.6 and the Byron was 1/8th. I am now flying an (Old version) FEJ 1/8th with a Wren K-100. It is a Rocket...................LOL

Here are some updated photos of my 16. Started the detail with Dry Transfers from Aeroloft. Next up, clear coat followed by weathering. Here are some current pictures....
