woody that predator jet is the shiatttt. I need one of those. That's the real deal. So far on every foamie jet ive flown my 700 size helis are much faster and that just doesn't sit well for me. So I'm thinking foamies are out and I'm going to welcome ajet that's faster than my 3d helicopters

Had a chance yesterday to witness the freewing l39 albatross fly. It was powerful and graceful in the air. I believe it has same power as the a4 but its quite a bit faster and has more thrust. Its also a very big 80mm jet like the a4. Im going to sell the a4 and get the l39. just love the l39. Pics don't do the l39 justice as its a lot more stunning in the flesh

its really hard to sell these foamies. They are already cheap to buy new, so theres very little used value, unless selling local. The a4 looks cool just weak performance imho, Might be time to slide back into a new rc heli project for the winter. got my eyes set on a new minicopter diabolo black edition heli but that will entail about 4k to setup properly.

So the best advise I can give ya, put a fan upgrade into the A-4, but it being scale and all, it doesn't really have the room to put a really aggressive set of batteries in it, like an 8 or 12S setup. That pretty much limits you to the sport jets, if you want a really serious EDF. Not always, the guy I met had an F-15. It just has to be something with a lot of excess battery space.
Good luck to you man, hope you find something that can keep up with ya.

Good thing where i live is you dont need a club to fly these. Theres clubs but also many old abandoned paved roads in the deseet. I do speed runs on my henseleit tdr2 heli at 156mph. Its fast but can go faster. Ever seen a stretched 700 heli doing 150mph with 750mm blades? Its very scary and it should be cause it will kill you quickly.
