Yes she flies like on rails. I land with high alpha attitude and full flaps for a less long rollout but it is very long without full flaps. The only problem is heavy cross winds where I often get a wingtip drag cos that big rudder gets pushed around. I just put wingtip skids on and no problem.

I've started practicing a steeper approach angle with flaps in light winds and I'm getting some nice squeaker landings. I have noticed though that the tires are getting flat spots on them. I'm wondering if anyone else is having that problem?

Did you have to do any carving to change out the motor to the FMS? I've read that's a great combo on this jet.

the fms 2000kv fan and a freewing 100a esc in mine really made a difference...batteries and esc come in barley warm after 3 to 4 min highly recommend it...you do need to cut a slight bit of foam at the rear of the fan housing...very little easy install...make sure u get the 100a or bigger esc..

I'd like a little more speed for fluid aerobatics I've got a few FW power systems to include a 6 blade and 9 bladed fan. Has anyone had success using another FW power system set up in their F-86. Keep in mind I've been flying this one since about 2015 stock so not sure if they upgraded the power system for the ones they sell now...:Confused:
