Model received well packed and undamaged, no parts missing. Easy quick assembly and set up plus great build quality and detail. Only had one flight for trimming but didn't need any at all. Hands free straight and level first time, that's a first for me not one click of trim required, perfect. Looking forward to many more flights now the clubs mower is fixed. Taking off from 2" long grass was challenging (hence only one flight on the day).

Great EDF Easy assembly and really fast shipping.This jet fly's as good as it looks tracks well lands better than my Avanti. Only have 2 issuses first is that one landing light is way brighter than the other I switched sides and have the same result (not a deal breaker) second is I find the battery gets much warmer in ths jet vs the Avanti my best guess is because the ECS wires are twice a long causing more resistance = heat. I have 10+ flights on 6s 5000 50c battery mixed flying getting 3.30 min. 8.50mha left per cell.If your on the fence just go for it you won't be disapointed. PS. the thrust reverse is a huge plus++++Thanks Motion Rc

Great jet and with the new power system it is even better. Still wish you would come out with a 90mm or twin 70 T38 thunderbird and prototype shemes.

I bought the 80mm L-39 as a spare EDF, and I am really pleased I did. The L-39 looks beautiful in the white/blue & red colour scheme & has a great presence in the air. The aircraft has been really well manufactured and the finish is excellent. Most of all, and the reason for my purchase, is that it flys fantastically, with just the smallest of trim required on its maiden flight. Our club only has a grass strip, but the L-39 with its sprung undercarriage handles this well and I have no concern about the strength of this going forward. Overall, a great EDF and one I would highly recommend.

Flies really nicely. It's true what they say about this being a scale Avanti & the Avanti is the best sport foamie EDF there is. This matches it just in a scale format Had mine custom painted in the L-139 Darkstar racing scheme too. Looks awesome
