Bring supersonic-scale aviation to your local flying field with the officially licensed FMS F/A-18 Hornet 64mm EDF Jet. Designed to replicate the iconic multi-role fighter operated by the U.S. Navy, this high-fidelity jet features an all-new EPO foam airframe with crisp panel lines, a two-seat cockpit, realistic antennas, navigation lights, and removable scale missiles and fuel tanks. Internal carbon reinforcement tubes inside the main wings and horizontal stabilisers maintain structural rigidity during high-speed passes and aerobatic manoeuvres.
Powering the Hornet is a 64mm 12-blade electric ducted fan driven by a high-output 2840-KV3150 brushless motor and a 40 A ESC. Operating on 4S LiPo power, the system delivers linear throttle response alongside an authentic jet turbine sound. For added safety and shorter landing rollouts, the ESC includes a built-in reverse thrust function. Touchdowns are cushioned by a CNC-machined shock-absorbing nose gear and steel main gear, while a push-button cockpit latch provides fast access to the spacious battery compartment.
Exquisite craftsmanship brings this officially licensed Boeing F/A-18 to life. Featuring a two-seat cockpit, precise panel lines, realistic antennas, functional navigation lights, scale fuel tanks, and replica missiles, it captures authentic fighter jet looks from every angle.
Land with confidence on paved or rough strips. The front landing gear uses CNC-machined spring suspension to absorb hard touchdowns, while the main gear is reinforced with an L-shaped steel wire core and covered in scale plastic for extra strength.
Push your flight envelope with an aggressive 2840-KV3150 brushless motor driving a high-efficiency 64mm 12-blade ducted fan. Powered by a 4S LiPo battery, this setup delivers impressive jet speed and a realistic turbine sound.
Shorten your landing rollout and keep your jet under total control on touchdown. The factory-installed 40A ESC features a reverse thrust function that acts as an airbrake to slow the model down quickly after landing.
Factory-installed ball link control horns deliver smooth, crisp handling on every stick input. Eliminating play in the linkages, this setup ensures immediate control response and predictable handling through loops, rolls, and tight turns.
Add the optional Reflex V3 flight control system to unlock electronic flight stabilisation. Self-levelling assistance keeps your jet tracking smooth and true, ensuring reliable handling even when flying in breezy conditions.
Officially licensed by Boeing, this model features an all-new custom-designed mould. Equipped with a dual vertical tail layout and dual side intakes, it provides efficient airflow and superior in-flight stability.
Built to handle high-speed passes and sharp turns, internal reinforcement tubes come pre-installed through the main wings and horizontal stabilisers. This rigid airframe resists bending or flexing during aggressive aerobatic manoeuvres.
Bright: factory-installed navigation lights add scale realism while improving orientation. Positioned on the airframe, they make tracking your model simple during dusk passes and low-light flights.
A dual push-button cockpit latch combines sleek looks with reliable security. The quick-release mechanism holds the canopy firmly in place during high-G manoeuvres to prevent in-flight detachment.
Compact and lightweight, this jet is simple to pack into your vehicle and bring to the field. Quick assembly takes under 15 minutes, getting you from your car to the runway in record time.
The large battery bay easily accommodates up to a 4S 2600mAh battery pack. Accessing your electronics is fast and convenient, providing the ideal balance between raw power and extended flight times.
