Introduction
The F-16 Combating Falcon is among the most acknowledged and successful single-engine fighters on the planet. Its amazing efficiency and abilities are why the world-renowned U.S. Flying force Thunderbirds demonstration group picks to run it with difference at airshows around the globe. The E-flite® F-16 Thunderbirds 80mm EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) is an Additional Scale design based on the single-seat F-16C version which went into production in 1984. This reproduction is almost as big as other 90mm EDF models, yet the efficient power system provides better general efficiency and longer flight times when using common 6S 4000–7000mAh batteries. The fully-painted white plus red and blue finish duplicates the iconic Thunderbirds scheme in sensational fashion, while Additional Scale information and practical functions — consisting of the most scale-like landing equipment set up on an F-16 EDF design yet — integrate to provide an unrivaled flying experience!

The Smartest and The Majority Of In-depth High-Performance Thunderbirds Model Yet!
The E-flite® F-16 Thunderbirds 80mm EDF jet is the Smartest and most in-depth high-performance design of the iconic airshow aircraft yet! Additional Scale information, consisting of molded-in panel lines, simulated antennas, signs, sensing units and more, take realism to the next level. Practical Additional Scale functions include LED navigation and landing lights, full-flying stabs, optional-use flaperons, sequenced equipment doors plus the most scale-like retractable landing equipment set up on an F-16 EDF design yet. Both versions include nine factory-installed digital, metal-geared servos, and with the ARF Plus version you can set up the compatible receiver and an 80mm EDF power system of your choice — from another comparable class design or using other compatible components.

The BNF® Basic version includes a V2 12-blade 80mm fan, high-power 2100Kv brushless inrunner motor, and a 100-amp Spektrum Avian™ Smart ESC to provide great efficiency with popular 6S 4000–7000mAh LiPo batteries – plus an extraordinary turbine-like noise. This efficient power system supplies better efficiency and longer flight times than the 6S-compatible power systems used in similar-sized models powered by 90mm EDFs. It's also equipped with a factory-installed Spektrum™ AR8360T receiver featuring unique AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select innovations. When using compatible transmitters, the receiver and Smart ESC supply general battery voltage, present, motor RPM and other telemetry information in real-time – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – together with optional-use motor reversing to reduce rollouts after landing and for other unique ground dealing with abilities. Constructed of molded EPO with plastic-capped strakes, hatch edges and openings to avoid damage to the fully-painted white plus red and blue finish during handling and when installing/removing batteries, this F-16 puts together without glue and can be prepared to fly in much less time than other comparable class models!









Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage
Currently own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make entering the air rapidly and with the very best control experience possible simpler than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver set up so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any last assembly, and fly!
 







Exclusive Technologies
This high-performance F-16 Thunderbirds design is equipped with unique Spektrum™ AS3X® and SAFE® Select innovations. AS3X works behind the scenes to ravel the results of wind and turbulence to provide a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much bigger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select uses pitch and bank angle limitations together with automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make this an easier to fly F-16! And if you do not wish to make it possible for the SAFE Select functions, just bind the receiver generally and only AS3X will be active. Plus, the additional 7th and 8th channels of the factory-installed AR8360T receiver can be used for proper operation of optional simulated afterburner LED devices and for other functions (7–8+ channel transmitter needed to run extra functions).
 



Smart™ Technology
The unique Spektrum™ Avian™ Smart ESC supplies a variety of real-time power system related telemetry information consisting of motor RPM, present draw, general flight battery voltage and more – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – through compatible Smart receivers (consisting of the AR8360T set up in the BNF® Basic version) and Spektrum AirWare™ equipped transmitters (consisting of the DX6e, DX8e, DX6 G2/3, DX8 G2, DX9, NX6, 8 and 10, iX12, iX14, iX20, and others) while you fly. It will even show private cell voltages, temperature of the flight pack and other information when using Spektrum Smart LiPo batteries. Plus, optional use thrust reversing can help reduce rollout after landing and uses other unique ground dealing with abilities (7+ channel transmitter needed for reversing). You can even set up the optional Spektrum GPS Telemetry Sensing unit to see speed, range from house and other information in real-time too.
 







High-Performance EDF
The V2 12-blade 80mm fan, high-power 2100Kv brushless inrunner motor and 100-amp ESC integrate with your 6S 4000–7000mAh 30+C LiPo battery to provide great vertical efficiency and a wonderful speed variety with essentially instantaneous throttle reaction. This efficient power system also provides better efficiency and longer flight times than the 6S-compatible power systems used in 90mm class models. But what makes the experience really fulfilling is the great noise it produces – it's nearly like a real turbine engine!
 



Extra Scale Details
The F-16 Thunderbirds 80mm EDF features an accurate outline and an abundance of Additional Scale information consisting of molded-in panel lines and hatches, simulated antennas, signs, sensing units and a lot more.
 






Functional Extra Scale Features
Factory-installed LED navigation and landing lights, full-flying stabs, control surfaces with pocket hinges – even sequenced primary equipment and nose equipment doors – are practical Additional Scale features that take your experience to another level. An optional simulated afterburner LED ring is also readily available independently to further boost your experience (7+ channel transmitter needed for proper simulated afterburner function).
 



Extra Scale Gear
The reliable, factory-installed electric retracts are equipped with long lasting metal parts consisting of Additional Scale painted, articulated and shock-absorbing struts. It's the most scale-like landing equipment set up on an F-16 EDF design yet! The sequenced and servo-operated equipment doors include molded information on the within, and the nose equipment door is also equipped with an LED landing light that switches on and off immediately when the equipment is extended or retracted.
 






Detailed Durability
Building with completely molded EPO material makes it possible to reproduce intricate information and shapes in a light-weight yet long lasting type. The outcome is an outstanding scale look that's easy to maintain and provides the very best possible flight experience. Plus, the plastic-capped strakes, hatch edges, and opening improve durability to avoid damage and paint chipping during dealing with and when installing/removing batteries.
 



Precise Control
An overall of nine factory-installed digital, metal-geared servos, together with ball-link equipped linkages on all primary flight controls, provide crisp, accurate, and reliable control at every speed. Optional use flaperons are also pre-programmed for proper operation with AS3X and SAFE Select in the BNF Basic version.
 






Easy Assembly
No glue is needed for assembly, and you can have the F-16 prepared to fly in less time than it requires to charge a battery! The full-flying stabs, plus the two-piece wing with hands-free connections, bolt into location and can easily be removed for convenient storage and transport.
 



Iconic Trim Scheme
The fully-painted white plus red and blue finish, together with factory-applied stars on the vertical tail and other markings, duplicates the iconic U.S. Flying force Thunderbirds airshow scheme in sensational, Additional Scale fashion. And unlike the paint used on other comparable class models, the white paint was tested with direct sunlight direct exposure and specially developed so it doesn't "yellow" with time.
