Fly the jet fighter that ruled the skies across the world for a generation!
Commissioned in 1958 as America's main strike fighter, the F-4 PHANTOM is still in active service in many airforce's around the world today although it has now been officially retired from the American military. With a impressive history established over more than half a century, the more than 5,000 supersonic jets produced for the West is a record that still stands. KYOSHO is proud to reproduce the universally acclaimed performance of this famous fighter, powered by the unique DF55 electric ducted fan unit that generates realistic jet flight performance. The almost completely finished fuselage with intricate camouflage coloring allows you to focus on the enjoyment of flying. This PIP (Plug in Play) kit is pre-installed with 2 micro servos, brushless motor and speed control amp so you can use your choice of transmitter.

Looks great! I should add this...I have flown both the A-6 and F-16, and due to their small size, they both give a suprising level of performance, box-stock. This should be the same.
I think I ought to get me one of these...

Ohio AV8TOR

Any word on price yet?

Tim Johnson

Well I stopped by the field right after work, and tossed the F-4 in to the air. On hand launch I did not need to do much. The airplane climbed for the clouds. I played around with the trims a bit to get it flying level and straight. After that I went for some glide approaches, and then low fly-bys, as well as loops and rolls. This airplane feels more stable than the F-16. I hope to have some video of the F-4 here very soon.

Ohio Av8tor, street price should be -/+ $199.99, includes ESC, 2 servios, motor and fan.
