Cut through the sky in this high speed Silverlit X Twin F18 Hornet, which is modelled directly on the Boeing F/A-18 Hornet which is used as a fighter jet by the U.S. navy.
This R/C version of the classic fighter jet is suitable for both beginners and experts thanks to the two channel control system. The F18 Hornet uses differential thrust to drive one miniature electric motor faster than the other and to control the F18 just move the joy stick to steer. Simply move the transmitter joy stick left or right, and operate the throttle to take off, climb and descend.
The X Twin Hornet is extremely lightweight and features a removable tricycle undercarriage which you can attach for an easy take off and a smooth soft landing. Unlike conventional remote control helicopters and planes the X-Twin is capable of an astounding 10 minutes of flying time and takes less than half an hour to charge through the transmitter, meaning you have more time in the air getting to grips with your jet and less time fiddling with charging cables. It also has an impressive range of up to 100m between plane and transmitter so you can send your F18 on it’s own mission through the skies.
The F18 Hornet is available on bands A, B and C which means up to two Silverlit R/C toys can be flown at once, so you can initiate a real air borne battle!
Transmitter requires 6 x AA batteries (not included) and the F18 comes with an instruction manual along with two replacement propellars
