Went together really easily. Maiden was totally uneventful, just needed a couple clicks to fly hands off. Highly recommend

This A/C is a solid performing RC model aircraft! The attention to detail in scale is phenomenal! Flight characteristics perform like a war-bird, solid, steady, but agile when needed! Servos are well built, and the retracts are highly functional! Great job! Fun to fly! Mark C. Lopez

over-all the plane flew great. Only one problem and that would be pilot error, after take off, raising landing gear the plane went into a steep climb, lowered gear and the plane leveled. Just have check out the connections. Had lots of complements on the plane. I love the construction of this plane. strong well put together. Easy of construction. GREAT quality, good job Flightline.

I'm extremely pleased with this plane. Hardly any rudder on takeoff and lands beautifully. I'm running a 5000mah pack pushed all the way forward. Watch your elevator throw. I set it up by the manual and on high rates it will snap with full elevator throw in a heartbeat. I dialed it down and it's perfect now. All the positive reviews on this plane is dead on. It is so much fun, I and thinking about buying another. Mine came with all 3 decal sheets.

Very happy with this purchase. The airplane was high quality. All the tail and wing assembly lined up very nicely with the screws and was a good fit. The only problem experienced was with the decals, the small numbers ripped apart when trying to remove them off the backing. There were also air bubbles in the decals.

If you fly off of grass, dont waste your money. Every time i land its a new break in the wing around the landing gear. Its a shame because it flies great and looks great. Just cant handle rough fields....

The F8F flys beautifully and has adequate power for aerobatics. Building was very frustrating until I threw the blue control box in the garbage and went with simple Y connectors. The instructions are very poor and you are pretty much on your own to assemble. The retracts will not close properly in flight and have not figured out how to fix it yet.
