SM F-18E with elevons
 

Does anyone know about the flying characteristics of a Skymaster F-18E with elevons on it.

As far as I know, no elevons version F-18 sold in the US.

I'm sure Ehab may try with his SM f-18E. However, based on what I've seen with my F-18C and my F-18F, I wouldn't hesitate to try on an F-18E.

Eric, I think he is talking about mixing ailerons with elevons.


I'm sure your airplane will fly just fine what ever you do.

Yea i want to try to mix the ailerons with the elevators because all the F-18's that i've seen tend to get very sloppy with the aileron control on landing so i am trying to figure out what to do.

Is this F-18E flying, or you haven't flown it yet? I would sugest you first try it like it is, my F-18F has very good control at low speeds, with factory throws.

i have flowm it but at slow speeds it tends to get sloppy on the ailerons so i want to try the elevons setup.
