Just an FYI, there was a guy on here Ianobar, that lost a JL F-20 from an elevator linkage problem. Make sure you are super confident on that.

F-20’s and F-5’s are so cool!!!

I never tried. They fly very neutral and predictable.Mine were P120 powered, you don't need much more power than that.
Here is one of mine flying at Classic Jets.

Stab pivot point was wrong in early kits. Caused extreme flutter and crash.

Yeah, a long time ago. All the ones with the later stab are fine. I wouldn't be put off.

that measurement he gave you lines up with the 90 to 110 mm back from the leading edge of the removable wing panel/fuse joint, that i was told to use.

sorry it took so so long to get back on this, but work sometimes disrupts even the best of plans.

glad the guys got a number for you to use.

Default F-20 Jetlegend

Hello,

is there anyone, who has a right wing for sale, and/or a canopy frame?
I damaged mine on a fence and it is so badly damaged, that it is impossible to repair it to build a mould with the old wing.
The F-20 flew good and sadly Jetlegend don‘t the F-20 no longer.
It‘s also possible to buy a complete model, if someone wants to his F-20.
I‘m living in Germany and picking up the model during my next holiday is possible.
Great Britain would be absolutely perfect for the holiday:-)
Best Regards
