64MM 5 Channel 2.4G RTF F3 Tornado EDF Jet w/ Sweepback Wings (Grey)

Here is one sick looking RC EDF Jet fighter from Nitro Planes. Yes the wings actually sweep back once assigned to a channel on your transmitter. Just like the F-14TomCat , gain more speed when the wings fold back and when ready to slow down and land, switch the button back for the wings to fold forward. One amazing and super low priced RC electric ducted fan jet righter.

1. High scaled variable sweepback main wing, the sweepback of the wing can be changeable during the flight, simple structure and high secure reliability.
2. Tail wing is made up of double vertical wing and differential united horizontal wing, the differential horizontal wing can be used for aileron;
3. High scaled appearance with luxuriant and beautiful painting.
4. With EPO foam, incredible intensity, strong and durable enough even in a crash.
5. Configured with a removable landing gear;
6. High scaled combination cabin, with blow moldings seat;
7. Out runner 64mm electronic ducted fan, with strong power.
8. With stable flight performance, easy to control and maintain.
9. With the design of hidden ducted power supply wire, which can reduce the resistance and increase the efficiency;
10. With the high scaled wheels structure for the front landing gear, and with beautiful appearance.

I truly love flying RC jets, i mean as an RC pilot, who doesn’t right? I have pretty much seen and flown every RC jet from the F-14 Tomcat, the MIG 15, the F-18 Super Hornet to the simple and in my opinion the funnest jet, the Funjet by Multiplex. No matter which jet you decide to buy and fly, it ultimately comes down to two factors, the scale look of the jet and/or the speed of the jet. To often i see these wicked looking F-14 ducted fan jets that look absolutely breathtaking from the scale look to the minuscule decals, but lack the speed in which a jet is suppose to perform. Although some RC pilots love to fly these beautiful RC jets in slow motion and enjoy a slow flyby, i on the other hand DONT.

To the point of this article:

The wicked looking Concept X64 by Nitro Planes seems to be the perfect plane from a design perspective. Impressive aerodynamic look, which seems to be using the SN26 Mod style airfoil which is build for speed. This plane design seems to mimic the British Jets the Red Arrow. The design is very similar and i bet the designer of the Concept X64 had the blue prints of the Red Arrow when designing the jet.

Here they are side by side.

Now if you are like me and enjoy that adrenalin rush of a speed jet and are looking to purchase the Concept X64 from Nitro Planes, i suggest loosing the ducted fan and converting this bad boy into a pusher, unless you want to enjoy your slow flybys while gazing into the clear blue skies wondering what you will be having for dinner that very evening. 🙂 Continue reading
