Default F-14 Fei Bao

I'm selling my Fei Bao F-14 Tomcat.
It's an amazing flying jet, and yes the wings sweep. The original worm drive sweep mechanism has been removed and I went with lineal servos. They work amazing.
The jet has (2) Evo 220 neos for power.
Throttle management is needed to not over speed the jet, but it performs like the full scale.

I have video links below for you to see it in action.

Not quite , I designed the plane , Feibao manufactured it , I built it and successfully test flew it seven continues times completing its performance flight envelope tests before it was sold to a fellow in the USA ( other than Mike ) .
it’s a great design and a strong performer ..I’m very happy with the result ( 2010)! It’s one of a kind as no other models were pulled from the moulds.

My mistake. I thought it was the FlyEagle. It does look to fly well. I think any future swing wing models should use plug in wing to pivot mechanism. The one bolt though wing looks to be a very concentrated load on a small area.

Great job on the one off though!!!!
