Without any doubt this model is currently one of the most sought after ducted fan jets on the market.
The single engine F/A-18 Hornet was designed, developed, and flown by Martin Lefebvre of Quebec, Canada.
While retaining most of the scale details of a F/A-18, this jet is not only easy to build, maintain, and operate, but also possesses the flight characteristics of a high performance sport jet.
From grass field take-off and high speed low-pass to gentle landings, this jet is now only agile and highly maneuverable, but also rock-stable.
