The 70mm Viper was not always the first choice for players transitioning from prop-driving airplane to jet – the original wire landing gear was not so friendly to pilots unfamiliar with jet takeoffs and landings – but now, she is! FMS 15th Anniversary Edition 70mm Viper, here we go!
There are a lot of FMS jet machines, but the 70mm Viper always soars above the crowd. The comment from players that the Viper “does any acrobatic trick you can throw at it" is a true portrayal of the excellent performance of this aircraft. The 15th anniversary edition of the Viper has been improved based on the previous work – switching out wire landing gear for a full set of CNC metal shock absorbing landing gear (A.K.A kneeling nose) – achieving simplicity, stability and ease of handling during the entire process of takeoff, flight and landing. Digital metal-toothed steering gear and ball-head joint rods provide precise control. The clip-on cockpit design facilitates battery access, and also effectively ensures that the cockpit will not fall off during violent flight. Lightweight EPO materials increase the durability and precision of the aircraft. The optimized airframe curves, long wings and wingtips reduce wind resistance and make the flight attitude of the entire aircraft clearer. 70mm 12-blade EDF unit, high speed brushless 3060 in-runner motor, 80A ESC, in combination with the recommended 6S 3300mAh lithium polymer battery, provide excellent vertical performance, speed range and instantaneous throttle response in flight. Perhaps even more fascinating is the sound the powertrain makes --it's almost like a real turbine.
