Here's my assembly & flight review for the FMS Rafale 80mm EDF. This model is executed really well with some nice features, has a super smooth finish and flies awesome! I've not flown a delta winged jet in a long time and it's been fun flying it. High alpha for days! :) A couple things worth noting, the model features a flap/crow function which reduces your pitch authority on landings which is not what you want. So, I don't recommend using it. Also, the exhausts are oversized and actually create a bit of drag, and so I designed and 3d printed nozzles that glued into place and reduce the exhaust to about 90% of the fan swept area.
