. The real Northrop F-5E Tiger II are part of a family of widely used light supersonic fighter aircraft, designed and built by Northrop in the United States, beginning in 1960s. The F-5E "Tiger II" was a greatly improved version of the earlier F-5A "Freedom Fighter". Hundreds remain in service in air forces around the world. Redesigned as a highly maneuverable, lightweight and inexpensive air superiority fighter, the E featured an air-to-air fire control radar system and a lead computing gun sight. The forward wing root was redesigned to give the "Tiger II" wing its characteristic triple delta shape. More powerful J85 engines required the fuselage to be both widened and lengthened. What does PNP mean? PNP stands for plug and play, and describes a model that is somewhere between Almost Ready to Fly (ARF) and Ready to Fly (RTF). The unique scheme used on this model is a perfect replica of the special upgraded Brazilian F-5E shown below which was designed to celebrate 30 years of service of the F-5E Tiger in the Brazilian Air Force. A PNP model has the motor, ESC, servos and some radio gear installed but is missing the receiver, transmitter, batteries and charger. 532mm wingspan, 939mm long, 125 sq. wing area, 18-1/2 oz. in. flying weight. The Jet comes with many of the major components pre-installed and ready for final assembly. Tough EPO foam construction makes a more durable airframe, less prone to dings and dents. All you need to do to complete is glue in place
EDF - Electric Ducted Fan Jets, are propelled via a strong electrical motor (usually brushless for extra speed and power) that is blown down a duct to focus the airflow and provide 'vectored thrust'. Ducted Fan jets come in 3 standard sizes with the large sizes usually providing more power and speed. 50mm EDF, 64mm EDF and 70mm EDF radio controlled jets are all available. All EDF Jets are usually at least 4 channel and have enough power to do inverted flight and great stunts! Not for beginners.
