Awesome!

I like it.
6S 5000mAh packs?
Release date?
Doesn't look like it has a trailing link style front strut, hope it's strong enough for continuous grass ops.

That’s beautiful.

Is this the same jet as MotionRC is carrying just different livery?

Totally different plane

MotionRC’s next upcoming jet is an 80mm JAS 39 Gripen

The next one coming from FMS is what Is being announced by Jason here, an 80mm Rafale

Availability date: 2020-12-15 this is according to the link here https://www.turbines-rc.com/en/jets-...ro-system.html

So can we assume this will be equipped with Horizon safe select receivers as an option ?
Only asking because every jet at my grass field has only flown successfully with Safe .

The reason is that you have to really push the take offs the shortest possible run, otherwise they wont fly from grass. Short take offs increase stall and safe adds the stability needed for the process.

This is not a criticism of Safe, in fact its an asset to Jets on grass.

I hope it makes it's way to Canada. Might be my first EDF over 70mm

I have yet to see Horizon put any of their Spektrum AS3X/SAFE RXs into an FMS airplane. Have you? This plane can be had with FMS's own "Reflex" system.

If it's anything like Motion's Freewing products, if this thing is available in Europe Dec. 15, it should be available in N. America some weeks prior to this.

Of course we have. Tons of EDFs Horizon has are all FMS jets with a different paint scheme. Some of the FMS versions aren't easy to get in the US though.

64mm F15
64mm F16
80mm F18
Twin 70mm SU-30
70mm F16
70mm Viper
80mm F4

Enough examples?

Not at all. Each and every one of those examples you give are branded EFLITE. Not a single FMS branded plane sold by Horizon comes with AS3X/SAFE. Here's all the FMS planes they sell. Go ahead, find some examples. No and don't come back and say that Eflite planes are FMS planes. That's not what I said. We all know that FMS makes plenty of planes for Horizon and the ones they choose to put Spektrum AS3X RXs in are only branded Eflite.

Oh, and how many foamies would it take to comprise "tons"?

It was clear that he was saying he was thinking there would be an EFLITE variant with AS3X/SAFE just like every one of the examples I gave. I wasn't making the "FMS makes the planes" argument. These are literally the same planes with a different paint scheme (and sometimes lesser electronics.)

But, go ahead with your "iT's EfLiTe" argument!
