Versatile Power Options Designed for a 120mm EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) power system, this electric-ready version of the Black Horse Viper Jet Mk.II can accommodate 10s-12s LiPo battery power depending on which system you decide to install.

Included Suspension Struts CNC machined aluminum and steel suspension struts feature a robust 5mm diameter axle, 65mm nose wheel, and 75mm main wheels for operating on both paved and grass RC runways.

High Visibility Livery Fly a real showstopper with the Viper Jet’s striking Union Jack livery. Bold black and vibrant red, white, and blue emblazoned across the aircraft is both easy to orient in the sky and visually impressive on the ground.

Molded Canopy and Cockpit Peer into the detailed plastic cockpit bay through the molded clear plastic canopy. The plastic parts resist both heat and UV damage, retaining their color and sharpness through many flying seasons.

High Performance Acrobatic Trainer The Viper Jet Mk.II is well regarded for both its nimble and stable flight characteristics. Carefully selected airfoils and construction methods provide a wing that does not stall easily and can sustain high speed flight loads while remaining lightweight. Fly this aircraft as a docile large EDF/Jet trainer, or move directly into flying an excitingly wide spectrum of aerobatic maneuvers!

High Quality Hardware Reinforced nylon, steel, and brass hardware provide the best material performance for different jobs. Trusted construction methods and control hardware geometries ensure each servo drives its control surface precisely with minimal efficiency loss.
