Electrifly F-20 Tigershark EDF

Description

To prevent front-line fighter technology from falling into the wrong hands, the U.S. Department of Defense launched a project in the late 1970s that would produce less advanced aircraft for sale to our allies. Approximately $1.2 billion was spent by Northrop developing the F-20. But when policy changes during the Reagan administration left it competing directly for sales with the superior F-16, the project was abandoned.

Just three prototypes had been built — and only one survives. Still, the F-20's speed and aggressive lines captured the hearts of military aircraft enthusiasts — and of like-minded R/C modelers, who'll find plenty of both available in this ElectriFly EDF.

• Includes HyperFlow™ ducted fan unit with powerful Ammo™ 24-45-3790 inrunner brushless motor.
• Strong, lightweight AeroCell™ foam construction.
• Fast, easy assembly.
• Rx-R™ features preinstalled electronics!
• The HyperFlow™ ducted fan unit, powerful Ammo™ inrunner brushless motor, Silver Series 45A brushless ESC and 3 micro servos are installed at the factory so you can be flight-ready in just a few minutes
• Tough enough to take abuse — light enough for electric flight — and factory-finished for stunning presence in the sky!
• The F-20's aileron and elevator control surfaces have been hinged at the factory to reduce final assembly time.

Only one full-size F-20 Tigershark remains of the three built and tested in the early 1980s. ElectriFly brings the experimental jet back to life with exciting sport-scale looks and blistering ducted fan performance.
