Thanks so much Ken for the good words, glad you liked it brother!

Thanks so much my friend, and you're right! Brent is just so relaxed behind the sticks...I've never seen him get rattled! Blue skies and all the best to you!

I agree William, Brent is a true craftsman for sure! Sounds like you'll have a sweet F/A-18 when it's done. All the best to you my friend!

Thank you very much Arthur, I'm glad you enjoyed it my friend 😎👍😁

@@JustwingitRC yes that’s an awesome video and what a beautiful jet 🥰🥰🥰 Did you watched my last video? Huge Me-262 😂🤩

@@ArthurRC Haven't seen that one yet, but I'll be sure to check it out 😎👍

I agree my friend, that landing was the perfect ending of a great flight! All the best to you!

I think Brent may have done one, but not sure. I'd check out his channel to see as he does do quite a few build and mod videos! All the best! www.youtube.com/@hechtspeed1198

Thanks so much my friend, glad you liked the show 😎👍😁

Hey there brother! I agree, Brent did an incredible job on this one for sure! If you check his channel out, I believe he did a video or two on his Hornet mods. There's a link at the end of the video. He basically enlarged and cleaned up the inlets (actually made them a bit more scale). Hope this helps, blue skies my friend!

Thanks for checking in Zephyr and thanks for the tip! Glad you liked it, all the best to you!

Excellent advice"... don’t use autofocus when shooting model planes." -- particularly EDFs, otherwise an excellent flight of this beautiful bird.

Thanks Randy, glad you liked it!

Thank you JCB, glad you enjoyed it brother!

Thanks Mack! Yeah, Brent worked hard to get it to this level, and like your AL-37, this Hornet handles the added weight easily! All the best to you!

Thanks brother!

Thanks Jason, glad you liked it my friend!

Thanks brother, you did an amazing job 😎👍😁!

Thank you brother, I figured you'd like this one! Brent is really taking it up a notch with his finishing techniques...just unbelievable! All the best to you and yours!

Hey brother, I'll have to get Brent to check in here because he used different gear to get the proper F-18 look....

Thank you my friend! I'll have to get the builder Brent Hecht to chime in with how he did the scale gear 😉

Not enough to notice any loss in performance.

Eigentlich ist es ein bisschen von beidem, mein Freund! Sowohl der Prozess des Malens, Schleifens und Lackierens als auch die verwendete Farbe sorgten für das atemberaubende Finish! Prost!

This jet is powered by the stock Freewing 90mm fan and I believe a 80-100 amp ESC. Cheers!

Thanks brother, Brent did a great job on modifying the gear and capturing the classic Hornet look for sure! All the best to you my friend!

@@JustwingitRC hi bro did he take the main landing gear from fms f18 80mm ?

@@ifanana Not sure my friend. He might mention it on his channel. I left a link to his channel at the end of this video. Wouldn't surprise me if he fabricated it himself! Hope this helps!

Du bist herzlich willkommen mein Freund! Ich weiß nicht, wie oft es neu gestrichen wurde, aber es waren mit Sicherheit mehr als zwei! Und ja, es war Airbrush. Prost 😁👍

Hallo mein Freund! Vielen Dank für die netten Worte! Im Grunde wurde dieser Jet mehrere Male neu lackiert, bis das glänzende Finish schließlich den gewünschten Zustand erreichte. Bemalt, leicht mit feinem Schleifpapier geschliffen, lackiert, geschliffen usw. Ich freue mich, dass Ihnen dieses Modell gefällt. Nehmen Sie sich einfach Zeit für das Finish, es erfordert viel Übung, um den gewünschten Effekt zu erzielen. Prost und alles Gute 😁!

Hi Daniel! I wasn't the one flying, my buddy Brent was, but I'm pretty sure he uses full flaps on landing. I'll see if I can get him to check in here for you...

Hi Robie! I'll see if I can get Brent to chime in as he was the builder of the model. All the best!

Not sure if Brent did a video about the finish, but his channel is "Hecht Speed" here on YT 😁👍

I think Brent explains that in his Hornet mods video. There should be a link to his KZfaq channel at the end of the video 😉👍😁

Not quite sure what gear that was that Brent was using. I'll reach out and see if I can get you an answer my friend...

@@JustwingitRCany updates??

@@Bruc3the628 Those were E-flite F-18 landing gear. Sorry for not getting back sooner my friend!

@@JustwingitRC thank you, does your friend have a youtube video on how he did this modification?

@@Bruc3the628 He has a channel "Hecht Speed" but this model was done before he did in-depth modification videos. Hope this helps!

You can check out Brent's KZfaq channel by following the link at the end of the video. Hope this helps!
