3D model description

Latest F16 is the Gen 2. I have learned alot in the past 8 months and it all shows on the latest Gen 2 Viper. You will learn a few things with this new iteration. You DONT need a wing spar and you can fly a jet like this with 2 servos and NO control linkages or push rods. This viper uses the symmetrical servo head glued into a slot in the Taileron. it flies amazingly well and has so much control authority it almost feels thrust vectored. ENJOY!

Jet comes in at 770g AUW with a mix of gyroid and grid infill

Any 50mm youdl like must be 4s
40 amp ESC
I recommend these servos as the model is made for themhttps://a.co/d/02jsP6Lf
velcro for the battery
magenets
Hot glue for the EDF
CA glue for the plane.

After many iterations, I am happy to say this is finally ready. I was not going to release this plane until I felt it was as good as the hobby king 50 mm, the hobby king 50 mm it’s about 100 g lighter but it makes less power. My design is to be used with the 50 mm power fun from Amazon. Make sure it’s the 4S version. The jet uses a 1300 mA 4 S battery. All up weight is around 650g. Only two 9g Amazon servos press fit into place with a tiny dab of hot glue only. It is all the control surfaces you will ever need.
