RE: BVM F 100
Dear Scott,
I have 3 flights on my F-100F.
I also experienced the TUCK during turns!
I called BV and he said I was nose heavy.
I balance as per instructions. BV said to move CG bach 1/2".
Where is your CG?
I was thinking to add a gyro to the roll axis. What do you think?

RE: BVM F 100
The BVMF-100isa very impressiv Model in the air and on the runway. It was a nice challengeto buildthemany scaledetails by my self.
Building and flying is not very tricky butrather for experts. *It's not very tricky tobuild but there is realy a lot to do!*
The Hun flies very stable andlike on rails. Perfect landingsneed powermanagement (throttle) but it's not witchcraft.
A friendasked melong time ago: "how is it do fly?" isaid: "it's a ****ingfighter jet!"With 250mph andabout 40pounds istheSuper Sabrenot a parkflyer. Butwith the wherewithalexperiance the Hunmake fun handle.

RE: BVM F 100
Europe is theterritory of Eurofighter,Rafale,Bae Hawk,Albatros, Mig's and Suchoj.Primarily modern jets. Jets likeF-100 Super Sabreare once in a blue moon. In the early 2000, as i have order the BVM-Hun, i found next to nothing about this Kit unless the very high price. But i had already built a F-4 Phantom from BVM. And it was highest quality and very elaborate construction (best engineering). Alsothe landinggear was the best on the planet and almost unbreakable. The Phantom was any penny woth. So i ask me:"what can go wrong with the buying of a BVM-Kit? Nothing!"
With the F-100 F Super Sabre, F-4 Phantom, BVM Agressorand BVMViperi have always a good time - during the building, maintenance and in the air mission.
Till nowis not very much to find about the flight charakteristics and center of gravity of the F-100 in the net. I willhelp to change this a little.

The Phantom Gear is strong but trust me it can be broken! You will love the 100 it's probably one of the best flying models out there.

The Phantom gearwas clearlydesigned for aircraft carrier missions :-) It's not realya lightweightbut certainly the strongest on the market.(absolutefree from backlash & steady work).

Not lightweight by any means but I have broken it before..... Still my favorite airplane, mines 12 years old with hundreds of flights on it.
