    LX F-4 Twin 70mm EDF

    I dont know much about this manufacturer, but their new twin F-4 looks impressive.
    LX-F4
    ready2fly LX F4


    Wingspan: 1000mm
    Length: 1500mm
    Flying weight: 2580g
    Motor: 2x 2100kv
    ESC: 2x 50A
    Gear: Servoless metal retracts w/ electronic breaking system
    Flaps: Yes, w/ leading edge slats

    I'm not wild about the orange German scheme, but I guess it would be easy to see in the air.



    Hangar: 90mm F16, 90mm F-15, 80mm Mirage, 90mm F-18, 1400mm P-40, 64mm F-22

      This is a cool plane. We flew it when we visited LX in China last month. The airframe is nice but I would like to see a larger motor in it.

        Nice, how did you like the leading edge slats??

        Yes, maybe 3000kv motors with dual 60A ESC's?

          The leading edge flaps are super cool. However we did not try deploying them for landing. We did not have enough flight time to try them in flight.

            Well, I'm hoping you guys had enough influence to have LX get it "motionrc" right for you guys. Maybe ditch the braking system and go with a better power system setup. With that, this would be the F-4 to own, right?

                Great flying plane,
                I installed FMS fans made all the difference quiet and powerful.
                Electronics suck retracts are weak for grass but plane flies excellent.
                I have the FW also and they fly about the same.
