    Description:
    Alfa A4 Skyhawk DF by 211

    This AV was designed to mimic the Alfa A4 kit described below. Measurements and weights are very close, as is the estimated flight envelope based on videos and radar readings. This little jet is tuned for faster flight, with level flight around 70mph, top speed level is close to 90mph. This AV represents the upgraded motor and battery pack options, and will fly for 5-8 minutes depending on your personal need for speed! The gentle torque roll can be zeroed out with two clicks of trim, or eliminated in the editor if you don't like reality. 3 channels just like the model: Throttle, roll, and pitch.

    "Ducted fan jet with amazing performance
    22" wingspan, 29" long, 155 sq. in. wing area, 16 oz. flying weight. All hollow molded foam construction, completely pre-painted and ready for assembly. The surface of the foam is toughened and the areas on the bottom of the jet that contact the ground are made of tough plastic. The ducted fan unit is included (ALF5101). The flight performance of this jet is simply amazing; it can easily ROG (rise off grass), and with our recommended JetScreamer motor the speed is blistering. Vertical performance is unlimited (OK, it is limited, but only by the pilots ability to keep the airplane in sight). The delta wing is very gentle in stall and slows well for soft landings. Slow speed performance is excellent and hand launching is easily done. Assembly is fairly easy; the wing is one piece and is glued to the fuselage after the aileron servo is installed. The ducting is smooth and elegant in design. The canopy is pre-done and is held in place by a magnet giving quick and easy access to the flight battery. Balance is critical on this airplane. The optimum balance point is molded into the bottom surface of the wing for easy reference. Waterslide decals for 3 versions of the A-4 are provided along with helpful instruction on their application. Total assembly time is about 6-8 hours. For 3-channels: Ailerons, Elevator and Throttle."


    Enjoy!
