    Hobby King SkySword

    I admit I am intrigued. I am a sucker for T-tails. Cool design (If Speed Racer had a jet this would be it). Anyone have one? Curious about performance and characteristics. Price seems a bit steep for a non-scale but admittedly I know very little about it.

    A plug-and-fly RC jet with 1200mm wing span and electric ducted fan (EDF). Buy PNF jets online at HobbyKing for the lowest prices. Fast international shipping.

      Nice! What setup do you have? Flight times? Characteristics/performance? If you wouldn't mind expanding on these things I would appreciate it. Thank you!

        Im using a custom made fan that uses a JF rotor and a 36 mm motor. Amp draw is only 65 amps so long flights are the norm. The plane flies great very stable in pitch. I was on the HK site and notice there are fewer replacement parts available then before. I hope they have not already discontinued. I would look at the version available from HSDGO.com although I could not find any replacement parts on their site.
