This question is more directed at people who own both the FMS F-18, and the E-Flite F16. Both are similar prices, but I was wondering which was better quality/value, and a much more enjoyable experience to fly. Which one for you recommend for someone wanting a 70mm EDF?

Also the f18 has a smaller battery bay and short esc wires where as the f16 you can fly different size batteries and have room to get your CoG. The f16 feels cheaper with but flies great. You will probably break the main gear cover since it’s not supported and the front gear is soft. I tend to fly my f16 more because it will high alpha with ease and just flies lighter. The fa18 looks great and flies good but needs a bit more runway to rotate due to nose gear being shorter. I personally love the fa18 for its looks and sound but the f16 for the fun factor.

Maidened mine today 3300 all the way forward I have one thing to say ....
OMG
Three clicks of up noflap ballooning and under fifty foot rollouts
Tracks on ground like dream
Does take 170 ft to rotate low angle of attack but that same aoa keeps it on the ground when landing
3 minute 3300 mixed throttle 9 to 14 left on battery
I'm very satisfied
On a sad note I lost my FW f16 to the evil sun God today my fault almost didn't do maiden hate loosing two in a day but it went well and honestly the F18 lands better and is better built
I'm going to get anotherf16 this week if possible I'll get the FW and the eflitein t bird
