Can someone please explain why there is no suspension travel left while it is just sitting there? I think that is a bad design?

It’s not necessarily a trainer. The Marines used the D model as a FastFAC. I have a good friend who flew the Delta and they had a squadron of Deltas that deployed to combat zones on a regular basis. I believe the model represented here, is one of those deployable squadrons. The training unit for the Marine F/A-18’s is VMFAT-101. He flew with VMFA(AW)-224 Bengals.
The reason I say that, is because some people aren’t interested in a “training” aircraft even though ithey could kill you just like any other aircraft. So if you say it’s a “Tip of the Spear” aircraft then more people might interested in it.
Just my opinion, of course.
Originally posted by PhantomNut View PostThe D model is also a legacy hornet, just the trainer version. It looks disproportionate to the C model because the canopy is much larger making it appear stubbier. I think e-flite/fms did a nice job with this one.

To me... it is way too short. Proportions do not look right and if you do the scale conversions on the dimensions... it is about 4" too short for it's wingspan. Picture attached compared to the FW F18. It just looks stubby like a Yak130!
I will say it sounds like they finally got FMS back to actually balancing fans because the two in the video sound great!
Also just ordered the FW B/A F18 just now. Can't freaking wait!!

I have the FMS F-18F in 70mm and its a great flying jet and it lands really sweet and tracks down the runway like an arrow. The only thing is you have to keep it close because of the all Grey scheme, I wish I had known that before I decaled the vertical stabs because. I would have painted them. I actually had to try several pairs of sun glasses to find which pair gave me the best vision for that particular jet.

Professional principle, OMG, lolz, over a rc E-flite comment. He mentioned, I have never had a E-flite product, no I did not answer his marking question, it was based on what he will expect over a E-flite product. Nobody asked you, you jumped in into it and got a response, you got a chip in your shoulder over nothing, short fuse thats a fact, and way over-thinking all of this drama.

And I said, sm not sure if yours has the rx included, but bla bla bla, giving him a heads up of what he can possibly expect of a Eflite product. He is asking about the markings, and my comments its related to him never owned one and what quality he will receive.
Yes, it is in the correct thread, maybe you cant tie two plus two of the conversation.
No mention of the presence of the RX or how it was mounted. Or its weight. Or any comparison to Freewing or Durafly. Hmmmm.
But he did get an answer to the question as asked.

Originally posted by MrVoyagerx View PostAm not sure ifthe one you are looking at has the Rx, but I bought a 64mm, and it is literally glued to the foam hidden in the nose. At least my edf, the foam is lighter, and feels full of air, and not a solid dense foam like Freewing or Hobbyking Durafly brand.
