This new version of the Rafale is a convenient size to put on the back seat of the car compared to the larger 80mm EDF version. It goes together in minutes. Just just UHU POR to glue on the vertical stabiliser, canards and fuel probe. Slide on the missiles, bombs and fuel tanks. Click on the mains landing gear and attach the nose gear. Then all you need to do is install your receiver and connect it up to the clearly labelled leads for the individual control surfaces and Reflex v2 gyro.

On this flight I removed its fixed landing gear and flew it with gyro on. You can also see that I cut some finger holes to assist with hand launching after 2 failed attempts. The fuselage is wide and flat underneath and impossible to get a good hand grip so I had to make this modification. Jason had tried a 2 handed launch but it is impossible to keep the nose up while pushing it hard from behind.

Sadly we have had a few rude comments that have had to be removed and the associated accounts blocked. Unless you try to hand launch this model yourself you wouldn't know what you are talking about.

1. Remove the fixed landing gear
2. Remove the bombs and missiles
3. Cut finger holes to assist hand launching

Flown on a 4S2700 pack and it was awesome. Easily the best small jet I have flown in a very long time !
