This is such an impressive plane, I'm seriously thinking of it as my second jet. As a matter of interest, has anyone attempted flaperons?
I started scanning all the posts , thought it might be easier just to ask. Is there an advantage or is it more of a cosmetic thing?
Finally got to see one at Nefi and was blown away, definitely on the list.

I'm balanced with a 5000 6s Gforce elite and I had to toss in 3/4oz to the rear. I install the counter weight inside the edf cover. Upgrades include missle kit, afterburner kit, metal retracts, and nerf whistles.:Cool:

How did you fit a 5000 in there lol my 4000 barely fit and yea I thought I was doing something wrong with trying to get the cg right but I guess I'm not the only one who added weight aft of the cg.
57x44x137mm(2.24x1.73x5.39in)
706g (24.90oz)
I put my counter weights in the inside wall of the fan access hatch. I used (4) 1/4oz stick on wheel weights.

I just ordered the Arctic Camo version and I'm stoked. Since I take off from a grass field, I also ordered the gear upgrade. This will be my first EDF, so I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions. I plan to run it with a Graupner GR-18 Pro gyro receiver (MZ-24 Pro transmitter) and probably set it up with flaperons.

What other birds have you flown well and how much flying experience do you have? The F-16 is usually not recommended for a first EDF. However, if you've got the the right combination of skills and experience, it should be OK. Your fellow Squawkers just want to see your adventure with the F-16 be a good one:Cool:.

I just received my Arctic Camo ARF Plus. I've got the weapons and gear upgrade for it also. But, Motion is out of stock on the 4S power system. Are there any other recommendations for a 4S system? I don't really want to go to the 6S. I can't really afford the batteries, and I already have a bunch of 4S batts.

Setting up this jet, I have a few questions...
I am having trouble with the aileron servos, when they are plugged into the control board one is constantly twitching and the other is completely unresponsive. Maybe bad servos or a bad board...? There are a few pieces in the PNP kit that are not mentioned in the manual like the clear pieces and some small dowels... I don't know what they would be used for. Also, what type of wing/tail setup should I input this as in my Spektrum setup menu? Thanks for any help.
