F-100 Super Sabre EDF Jet Kit w/o Motor & ESC / EPO (AUS Warehouse)
The F-100 Super Sabre is a high performance aircraft modelled on the F-86 Sabre. All airframe components are moulded from high impact EPO foam. It is powered by a single newly developed 92mm ducted fan unit which is designed to work perfectly with a 1500kvoutrunner. The kit comes with the fixed scale aluminium suspension. There is enough room in the fuselage for a larger batteries if desired. F-100 model comes in ARF form. This is a big, go fast, hairy-chested foamie that requires a certain amount of skill to fly.

I notice MANY people dont answer questions on the forum. Many dont even read what others write. They all want to say something but nobody is listening. Luckily there's several good blokes there helping the masses :)
any hints i have the FlyFly retracts on the way *}...my red brick 125a resists all stick programming (see hk page) so i have an Tz85 and prog box on the way as well (i got a freebie)i hope to use 3000MaH 6cell 35c lipo..any feedback appreciated
To Kaoskane , Alatross is much smaller W.S , and much faster then F-100 .Just got back flying my L-39
it,s great flying plane .So it,s realy up to you .If you are new to edf , try the MB-339 ,much easier and well designed as a jet trainer .
To kaoskane , 125ap esc sounds good just remember for this fan try 1500kv turnigy out runner .note dont try any of this fan on bench as they designed to go into fuse and sandwiched between the foam .On your esc stay with auto set up .Battery ,should around 4000mah 30C or even 20c should be ok .Since your Ap would not be more them 77 or So.
spot on ARc after installing the fan in the foamy the shroud was held ina tru circle and the noise became spot on and now she sounds sweet from 0 to Wot
Yes EPO rules... just pour near boiling water on it and i bends back to nearly pre crash shape a little stretching with ur burning fingers and some 99c cyanoacrylic (non foamsafe) glue and ur in the air again.. My Jetiger needed to be reshaped by squishing it back to straight with 6 bricks and pouring on boiling water and waiting for it to kool and it remained the same shape the bricks wedged it in to hth ps please credit me i need 860 more credits ,to buy this plane lmao
G'Day Grego this is my biggest jet so far and the first one not rtf any help or suggestion u can offer. How about setup and flying. I dont want to crash this beauty..so any suggestions would be Studied and appreciated.
HI Kaoskane, it goes together well. my biggest mistake was i gluded the wings on and it made it very hard to fit in the car. it hand launches very easy i flew mine with 6s 5000 and 1600watt 1750kv set up (PRODUCT ID: HK30281) flew great
Why do they call it a '92mm fan'? Shouldn't they be refered to as impellors or something similar? Is it because they 'fan' the air? The propellors on my planes fan the air and so do the blades on my helicopters. The heli blades are good for cooling down in the summer. Shaves your face too if you get close, so im going to call it a 'razor' :)
LaserBeam yes that would work till you had to fit one. If it was the IMPELLER MEASUREMENT and you had to fit it in a 92mm duct, we then have a problem. I hope this helps.
I will use these when i get to the retract part of my Build.. PRODUCT ID: DSR-46T Digital Servoless Adjustable Landing Gear set (Upgrade Metal version)... would be simple to install as well...*}...PS if u but please post buddy code....I have posted code for this jet on forum *}
any one got a Matey code for this giant stinger lol.. or maybee a credit please i nee 886 more to buy this i have 1850W 6 cel and 125A red brick ready to put in i will do a video and post it for uall to cee thanks i am extrapolating my answers cos poker is slow lol
Great savings for Aus customers!
from HK: $118.37 $76.52 = $194.89
from AUS: $193.02 $14.79 = $207.81
=> almost $20 more when buying from local warehouse
Yawn. This is Australia. Jason not sure if you know but the legendary F-111 (huge potential for model sales) just got replaced by F-18F's - Can you use your considerable buying power to get a 90mm F-18F in aussie RAAF SQN colours made and selling from the AU store??? Foamie or fibreglass.....
I'd have to agree. An F-111 with swing-wing capability would sell big time here in Australia (and the USA). I don't know of any F-111 models though unless HK can design/manufacture their own.
Dont have all details yet. Would be guessing only, that, it will have to be larger more serious end, and quality. Soon, is a relative term, considering, the above note, plus production run, pack, ship via container. Gives us time to save up. Will be an xtreme thing when it arrives.
i know what your saying i have the lx mig 29 and my fly fly l39 with 1600 watts $40 motor fan combo draws less amps has more power and flys longer than the twin 70mm mig. the mig has to work so much harder to stay in the air.
My F100 has just arrived, and what a beast. Much bigger than I expected and the box is full of stuff including oleos. Will upgrade the fan unit however.
fyi there is a three year old blog on this on rc groups links dont work so do a search for FLY FLY F-100 Saber...he added a rudder with 12deg deflection and it did nothing HTH :}
To pluto . That fan 12 blade is too big for it ,and you gone have hard time to fit it in .Stay with stock fan ,that comes with it with 1500 kv with turnigy 3025 motor .Watch me on you tube ,under HK MB-339 same fan with above set up ,take off grass with EZ.The 12 blade fan i got in to my big RCLANDER T-33 weight 11lb with 1900 kv motor on 6S and 8000map batt with over 7lb of static thrust ,taking off grass with EZ.

1 thumbs up!
Got this model to start flying EDF. Takes a number of hours to build but comes together well. The supplied fan shroud was too flexible and distorts when installed allowing the blades to touch the sides. This is very annoying, HobbyKing just charge more and put 0.02mm more plastic in the shroud and it would be great. Luckily I bought the 90mm 5 blade fan from HobbyKing as well and this slots right in (you have to do a little modding). I have not flown it yet.
- 4 stars because the supplied EDF is useless.
