FMS003C F4 Phantom Camo ARF
FMS003CE F4 Phantom Camo Airfram Only

BIG Camo F-4 Phantom with 70mm fan, Outrunner motor, and 4S lipo pack included
28-3/8" wingspan, 43-3/8" length, 250 sq. in. wing area, 34 oz. flying weight. This all-molded foam airplane comes completely painted in an attractive matte finish with waterslide decals applied. The 70mm fan with brushless outrunner motor is pre-installed, as is the 45A brushless speed control. The jet has 5 pre-installed servos: (2) ailerons, (2) elevators, nose wheel steering. Landing gear is fixed but can be easily removed for hand launching. Battery changes are quick, just remove the canopy that is held in place with magnets. The jet is large enough for good visibility in flight, but is easily transported. The thrust from the 70mm fan with the included 4 cell 2100 mAh LiPo battery will quickly accelerate the F-4 into the air. The climbout is steep and the speed impressive. The full scale Phantom had the glide angle of a brick; our version displays much more pilot friendly manners. Due to its light weight the F-4 will slow down nicely and retain its good flying character, making landings a thing of beauty. Flight times are about 5 minutes on a charge. Requires a 4 channel radio.

I don't have the new CAMO version, but I do have one of the FMS003 F-4's.

I have 2 of the stock batteries, plus a TP 2600 and a Common Sense 2600, all 4-cells that I fly. I had to cut out foam right behind the front wheel servo to make the 2600's work, plus trim some foam from the bottom of the canopy.

To fit in anything bigger, you will have to trim out the foam reinforcements on each side of the fuse in the battery compartment which IMO will weaken the airframe.

Also, I'm flying the stock motor (after balancing the fan), and the F-4 does great on the stock setup, unlike the F-16.

Hope this info helps. :cool:
