Introduction
The F-16 Fighting Falcon is one of the most recognized and effective single-engine fighters in the world. Its incredible performance and abilities are why the world-renowned U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds presentation group picks to run it with difference at airshows around the world. The E-flite® F-16 Thunderbirds 80mm EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) is a Bonus Scale design based upon the single-seat F-16C version which got in production in 1984. This reproduction is almost as big as other 90mm EDF designs, yet the effective power system delivers better total performance and longer flight times when using typical six 4000–7000mAh batteries. The fully-painted white plus red and blue surface duplicates the iconic Thunderbirds scheme in sensational style, while Extra Scale details and practical features — including the most scale-like landing equipment installed on an F-16 EDF design yet — combine to deliver an unequaled flying experience!

Functional Extra Scale features consist of LED navigation and landing lights, full-flying stabs, optional-use flaperons, sequenced equipment doors plus the most scale-like retractable landing equipment installed on an F-16 EDF design yet. Both versions consist of nine factory-installed digital, metal-geared servos, and with the ARF Plus variation you can set up the suitable receiver and an 80mm EDF power system of your choice — from another comparable class design or using other suitable components.

The BNF® Fundamental variation includes a V2 12-blade 80mm fan, high-power 2100Kv brushless inrunner motor, and a 100-amp Spektrum Bird™ Smart ESC to deliver fantastic performance with popular six 4000–7000mAh LiPo batteries – plus an amazing turbine-like noise. This effective power system supplies better performance and longer flight times than the 6S-compatible power systems used in similar-sized designs powered by 90mm EDFs. It's likewise geared up with a factory-installed Spektrum™ AR8360T receiver including exclusive AS3X® and optional-use SAFE® Select technologies. When using suitable transmitters, the receiver and Smart ESC supply total battery voltage, current, motor RPM and other telemetry data in real-time – with Smart and non-Smart batteries – along with optional-use motor reversing to shorten rollouts after landing and for other special ground handling 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 surface throughout handling and when installing/removing batteries, this F-16 assembles without glue and can be ready to fly in much less time than other comparable class designs!









Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage
Currently own a Spektrum™ transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make entering into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible much easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed so all you require to do is bind the receiver to a suitable transmitter, complete any final assembly, and fly!
 







Exclusive Technologies
