First 70mm EDF. It is an efficient, fast jet. Flies phenomenally and very fast. FrSky GPS has top speed at 140mph in a slight dive. Landing gear are awesome and the reason I bought this over the horizon viper. Stock tires are crap, put Dubro on for sure. Like that it can fly on a broad range of batteries. With a SMC 3600 vertical is almost unlimited. Still flies great with an SMC 5300, landings are actually easier with the bigger pack because it sinks more consistently. 2 things to be aware of. Stock ESC timing is wrong. Needs to be changed to High for a huge bump in power output. If you’re looking for turbine sound, you’ll be disappointed like I am. Because the airflow is so efficient, this thing is quiet. Between 35 and 75% power it is almost silent. The speed makes up for it though.

i started in EDF with Vulcan, after 20 flights i lost it because lack of attention, it is so fast, one second and was imposible recover orientation , so small dot in the sky ¡¡.Now i learned so i pay attention , extremly simple to assembly, just reduced a liltle bit aileron weight.fly with total fluency, needs more space and anticipation in manouvers than other kind of planes.but it is as fast as you want and has healthy reactions.landing following natural gliding path and reducing speed with a litle bit of elevator and perfect..¡¡¡is a mix of EDF trainer and fast plane, only you decide.the size perfect to transport.

This is my 3rd Vulcan. The first one taught me to fly EDFs. Flew out of the box with just a few clicks of trim. Take off, gear & flaps up it performs nicely. Fly it with the recommended 4k battery, landings with flaps are slow for a jet and stable. I tried a 5k battery but it’s hard to get off the grass and landing are hot. Flys inverted with more correction than my pattern ship, but overall not bad.After crashing my first plane (pilot error) I bought 2 more so I could fly and have a spare in case the plane got back ordered.

I lost my first one on the maiden trying to fly inverted and got disoriented.This one is awesome and flies so well both inverted and right side up. A easy flyer that has a inner speed demon if you want it!

Nice plane flies really nice and fast or slow,like one guy in reviews had same problem as I did,had two servo,s that came apart.looks like they didn't connect wires at all was testing out controls when ailerons stopped working took wings back off one wire came out of servo plug grabbed ahold of it all wires came out of plug checked the rest of them found another one where wires just pulled out easy.need better quality control at factory.hope none come out when flying!

This is a great jet! Long flight times! And when I ordered it in September 2023, it came with a reverse thrust ESC!!!
