I knew you would be all over this one lol I'm planning on a D model

erh7771 01-07-2016 09:15 AM

Hello Anton,

I'm looking for instructions on your website for this model, I see the 1/8 instructions but not the 1/6th

Regards

DiscoWings 01-07-2016 11:44 AM

Cool no tail pipes? Engines appear to go in the back.

Levi Wags 01-07-2016 12:46 PM

Less flow loss, use smaller engines.... perfect for EDF... Looks like a single KT170E was used in the prototype.... flow it nice.

DiscoWings 01-07-2016 06:56 PM

If I didn't already have this Fej 1/6 F-18 clunker....:mad:

You guys enjoy the 120s seem to push it very nicely. I hope they release a light kit for it with factory install like on the hawk and f16

we had designed the 3 versions for the engine mounts , one for single turbine P-180 to P-200 or K-180 to K210 , and two versions for twin turbines P-100 (K120) in the tail or twin P-140 (K140) in the center place ,

interesting, so I would imagine with wing stores you will probably have the 140s like normal with pipes?

pilot tw 01-08-2016 12:39 AM

the Likai will get the two K160 (new small size) and new F18f airframe then install the new K160 to tail without tailpipe for test the new airframe of F-18f that Likai made some improved it in Skymaster factory last month, we will start products the new F-18E/F for all customers !

Perfect Anton! I was going to say why not the 2 new K160s since they are smaller then the old K140. The K160 seems to be good on twins since its small and light yet has the power to bring a big plane back on single engine.

Great work on the F18. See you at FLjets in a few months

FenderBean 01-08-2016 07:52 AM

Gun whats the specs on the K160 im guessing the size will be the same as 140 but what about thrust?
