E-flite F-16 Falcon 64mm EDF Jet PNP & BNF Basic

[@myyotube8497]

This would look great next to my F15 BNF. Two nice jets that are easy to hand launch. Well done HorizonHobby.

[@GBLynden]

Even though it is a little smaller than what I am looking for in this market, this looks to be a very nice addition to the line-up. Great job HH!

[@reckemroysrc3764]

GOT it 👍👍

[@gretchensloan7050]

Just put this plane together, looks amazing, great job HH!!

[@aerospacematt]

I love mine! Beautiful scheme! Great Job, Horizon!

[@demmemess4456]

Just finished putting mine together! Looked beautiful and can’t wait to fly it!!

[@FarmerFpv]

Looks like a great EDF trainer or just a fun park jet, great job HH on hitting all them angles with this one!

[@FrankA-973]

Horizon you guys make RC so amazing these days with constant production of new and exciting products. Forever customer and boaster of your amazing creations . Thank you for making our hobby so fresh always and giving us so many choices. Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏼

[@NoAgendaFPV]

A base grey version would be awesome! I would prefer to paint it up like on of the ones I fixed during my time in the USAF. Awesome looking model!

[@aerospacematt]

Well, now you have a base grey 80mm!

[@thomasfischer1017]

Magic...E-flite F-16🛩Falcon🌠👍Fantastic Movie🌠🎥🌠🛩🌠🎥🌠

[@Bellairvideo]

Wonderful .... another successful product

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Give me one now!!!! Haha I can’t wait for this bird. Toss And Boss baby!!!

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

received mine, with 4s 2200 its really really nose heavy. Almost to scared to fly it with the amount of elevator ill need. The ROC hobby version ran on 3s (190 GRAMS) (4S 239 AND 251 GRAMS) A 4S 1800 IS 190 Grams but flights times would suck. My F15 balances perfect on 4s tho

[@MerryBoozerRC]

Maybe eventually I’ll get one and let you know on battery placement and CG but for now I honestly can’t answer yet don’t have the F-16. I have two videos on the F-15 and it’s awesome I slide the 2200 4s all the way back in the battery tray and it’s so good high alpha is even sweet on the F-15 I really think the F-16 will be magical but we will see

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

@@MerryBoozerRC yup! i have the f15 as well with the battery back...update horizon got back to me and the amended the CG from 90-95mm to 75-85mm. will check at home to see if its better. On the F16 at 95mm with the battery all the way back seemed nose heavy and took a bit of up elevator..maybe it was balanced. will report back when not at work. Yes boozer i did watch you toss and boss seen it wasnt in it bc it wasnt release. f15 is my fave out of all them. mig 15 second...My Avios Mig 17 fresco shows up tomorrow.

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

Just got off the phone with horizon. They posted an amended page about the CG changed from 90-95mm to 75-85mm CG is spot on with battery all the way back less 1/4 inch

[@jraemdonck]

Is there any way to put some bracket or clips to put on the ordnance of the F-16 64mm ? Can we get it on any webshop of horizon hobby? Maybe some clips like the ordnance of the p-47 razorback

[@jamesmorris7581]

I love the content on content . Kudos!

[@bad65dad]

Nice love the paint scheme.

[@robertsims8986]

NICE LITTLE JET

[@richardmark4385]

Like that it can be hand launched and it doesn't need a concrete runway to land

[@mandilupher4294]

Now bring back the FMS 64mm F-4 Phantom in a 4s 11 blade set up please!

[@FalconWing1813]

Very Nice and I like the price! Now we need a SU-34 fullback in this price range. Blue camo please.

[@bladerunner469]

Very nice why won't someone come out with 64 mm F4 Phantom

[@dementia0090]

So which is the correct CG. The addendum, 75-85mm or manual, 90-95mm?????

[@Troops-y6h]

Thats what i would like to know..Did you find out the correct one? ive just ordered one.

[@aarshmathur2909]

What's the CG location. The manual says 90-95mm from thr leading Edge root, there is a Flyer in thr box that says 75-85mm. I'm confused.

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

The insert is correct (as it was added after the fact).

[@speedorodos]

How is the maximum flight time with 2200 mah battery 35c?

[@JeffsCustomRC]

Nice jet guys, small for me, but looks great 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

[@JoshWeaverRC]

Effort into this within the manual is apparent and useful. Spread the word folks. *Landing* Plan to land the aircraft into the wind when possible. Fly downwind and turn into the wind to begin the approach. During the approach and descent, keep the wings level and the aircraft pointed into the wind. The angle of attack (the angle between the aircraft’s pitch attitude and the horizon) should remain consistent and slightly nose high during the decent. With the angle of attack maintained during the descent, the speed and descent rate is mostly controlled with small throttle changes. Stay into the throttle to maintain speed and control during decent until the aircraft is ready to flare. As the airplane descends into ground effect, fully lower the throttle, pull the nose up more to bleed off airspeed (flare), and the aircraft will settle on its wheels. If landing on grass, it is best to hold full up elevator after touchdown and when taxiing to prevent the nose from digging in. Once on the ground, avoid sharp turns until the plane has slowed enough to prevent scraping the wingtips.

[@RoomRa1dersmilsim]

I've got a girl friend back at the base I'm going to propose to her when I get back, I even bought flowers! -PJ *ACE COMBAT ZERO*

[@Donatbtw]

Which remote control is the best and not so expensive

[@jimbo8486]

Buy the dx6👌👍

[@alexandermiller5034]

you guys should make this with desert camo

[@NoonzAirborneRC]

Ali.....can you tell me battery placement please? Using pulse 4s 2250mah 251 gram batteries same as I use in the F15. With the battery all to the rear she is still REAL nose heavy! Thank you!

[@JoshWeaverRC]

It is nice that you showed the slow flight with high alpha in the fully loaded configuration. I can only imagine how fun and capable this would be even in tight spaces when stripped down to the bear minimum. I'm betting a small and light weight 4S would turn this into a magic show (otherwise known as a Whiskey Tango Foxtrot show).

[@Cynocehali]

How about a hovercraft that can carry?

[@jakobus0_036]

Is it possible to land it with low speed in the grass

[@aronvanempel1206]

Yes it is .....the best is landing it into the wind ..i like to fly when its wind speed 3 strange enough haha you can litteraly hover into the wind

[@forrcpilotsscherer1894]

Can E-flite make a Cessna 210 centurion?

[@FalconWing1813]

That would be cool , right beside a short take off and landing Cessna 208 caravan, with lights and scale interior please. lol

[@Raptor50aus]

Same running gear as the F15? Can use 4S 2200 ? Any gluing like the F15 ?

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Same power system as the F-15 64mm EDF, 4S 2200mAh 30+C batteries are a perfect fit/choice, and the stabs glue in place (wings bolt in place, just like the F-15)!

[@wtfmimshag]

Is the product page accurate? 3900kv for 4s? Or does it rock the same 3150kv as the F15?

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Same 3150Kv motor as the F-15 and the pages are being updated now!

[@wtfmimshag]

@@HorizonHobbyProducts Nice, great power unit!

[@wtfmimshag]

Awesome. 64mm hand launchers rock. Please tell us Ali will be doing an on the fly with some silly antics?

[@bertramkettles8167]

Will this work with a dx5e radio

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Yes it will

[@aaronpruitt2566]

will this work with the DXeA radio?

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

Hello, If the DXeA you have came with an airplane then it will work with this model as well as other airplane models.

[@Professional_hooligan]

@@HorizonHobbyProducts I was going to use it off of my apprentice

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

@@Professional_hooligan You will be able to use the DXe that came with your Apprentice for this particular model.

[@AlexGonzalez-jw9mh]

how fast is it?

[@BeautifulSafety]

167 km or 100mph, going straight down it can reach 250 km but it will desintegrate hehehe the store clerk I bought one from did that with a gps onboard, no joke or exageration

[@aronvanempel1206]

165 kmh straight ahead no wind on 4s 1800

[@gabrieldavidson4442]

64mm edf F4 Phantom next? Pls??

[@aheis1313]

Bring it back!!!!!!!

[@trullmann]

This or the F-15.... hmmmm!

[@Swole_Gecko]

I would say this f16 because of the perfect slow high alpha landings. I have the bigger 70mm f16 and the 64mm f15 and i can land the bigger 70mm slower than the smaller f15. Or just buy both 🤔

[@FarmerFpv]

Buy them all!! Muaaahahaha!

[@trullmann]

@@Swole_Gecko totally missed this.. so yeah they slow high alpha would be really cool.. sounds like the F-16 is more my style then!

[@JoshWeaverRC]

When airborne, climb to a comfortable altitude, retract the landing gear and then return the flaps to the level position. *More money saved for our benefit by reusing verbiage in the manual from other planes. Fine by me. Not for the beginner Pilot anyway. 😎

[@stuffifindinteresting2115]

No tailerons, no retractable landing gear, no thankyou...

[@jamesn5051]

Then buy the big F-16, little 64mm EDF's can't really fit retracts or they'd be too heavy and fly badly.

[@HorizonHobbyProducts]

....and it's $179.99 for that reason ;). If you want the extra goodies, we recommend the 70mm Thunderbirds!

[@JoshWeaverRC]

No extra weight Kyle. This is an additional option not a limiting factor.

[@pissedoffpetedotcom]

Does this fly ok without ventral fins? Seems like they need to go for belly landings on short grass.

[@aronvanempel1206]

Yes it does have mine removed...i only do grass landings without landing gear plane flyes great ;)
