Spotlight: Great Planes® F-86 Sabre Brushless EDF Micro

The F-86 Sabre from Great Planes is more than the first micro that offers true EDF jet performance and authentic jet looks in equal measure. It's also the first Great Planes model to be available as an RTF and as a Transmitter-Ready model. Like ARFs, both versions are largely assembled. And, like receiver-ready aircraft, they're equipped to get the pilot to the flight line fast. Both are factory-finished and carefully scaled for real-life appearance, with authentic decals applied and fine detail molded into the foam fuselage and wings. The look is undeniably real — and so is the performance. That's because all components are factory-matched for optimum results. The F-86 arrives with a LiPo battery and charger in the box and everything else factory-installed. In the F-86 Sabre, "everything else" includes a 4-channel Tactic™ 2.4GHz SLT™ receiver. The RTF includes it as part of the radio package. In the Tx-R version, it's the key that allows
you to fly the F-86 with your favorite transmitter and AnyLink™ Radio Adapter. AnyLink is a remarkable little black box that works with transmitters of virtually any modulation, band and brand, including Futaba®, Hitec®, JR® and Spektrum®. Adding it takes only seconds, but offers tremendous benefits. First, it enables you to continue flying with the radio you know best and trust most and enjoy the benefits of 2.4GHz technology as a bonus. Second, it also enables you to fly a much wider range of aircraft, including the F-86, all other Tx-R aircraft and any plane equipped with a 2.4GHz SLT receiver.
And whether you choose the ease of the RTF version or the future potential of the Tx-R, one thing is certain: that the F-86's combination of performance and performance is sure to provide a great jet flight experience.
