The F-5E aircraft was designed for use by allies primarily as an air superiority fighter for local air defense with a secondary air-to-ground capability. This stunning looking radio controlled model is a perfect replica of the special upgraded Brazilian F-5E which was designed to celebrate 30 years of service of the F-5E Tiger in the Brazilian Air Force.

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. Hundreds remain in service in air forces around the world. The F-5E "Tiger II" was a greatly improved version of the earlier F-5A "Freedom Fighter". 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. More powerful J85 engines required the fuselage to be both widened and lengthened. The forward wing root was redesigned to give the "Tiger II" wing its characteristic triple delta shape.

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. (The real F-5E Tiger ll pictured below)
1-5/8" wingspan, 34-7/8" long, 125 sq. in. wing area, 18-1/2 oz. flying weight. Tough EPO foam construction makes a more durable airframe, less prone to dings and dents. The Jet comes with all the major components pre-installed and ready for final assembly. All you need to do to complete is glue in place the vertical fin, rockets and the EPO nose cone. The 64mm fan is installed with a smooth-running out runner motor and a 30 amp speed control. The 4 servos (2-aileron, 2-elevator) are pre-installed and pre-connected to the flying surfaces. It just doesn't get much easier than this. Charge the 1300 mAh lipo battery with the included lipo balance charger, install 8-AA batteries (not included) in the transmitter and get ready to go fly fast. Flight battery access is located under the canopy, making a quick change easy to do. The jet comes with removable landing gear with a turning nose wheel. It can be flown with or without the gear. If you don't have a smooth runway, hand launching is easy to do and belly landings are a breeze. The high visibility color scheme really helps with maintaining orientation with this fast jet. Small-yes, twitchy-no; the F-5E has great speed and really grooves in the air. The jet is suitable for intermediate to advanced pilots.
Included is a 1000m range transmitter, electronic speed controller, ducted fan with electric brushless motor and 4 electric servos all pre-installed. The 4ch transmitter gives full 3D control of the aileron, elevator, rudder and throttle. The ducted fan system with the brushless motors and li-po battery gives enormous power pushing the jet to crazy speeds. The high power allows full aerobatic characteristics and inside loops, outside loops, axial rolls, inverted flight, knife edge, stall turns, hammerheads, and spins are all possible.
The attention to detail from Starmax who are the leading rc jet manufacturers gives the jet a nice realistic appearance. The jet can take off from the ground or can be hand launched. If you are not ready to be flying at high speeds then you can also fly the plane very slowly while you get used to it without any problems. The jet is made from shock resistant EPS foam with reinforced fuselage and strong wings. Should you need any spare parts though they are all available from our site. This plane is a lot of fun and you will certainly enjoy flying this fantastic model.
