Version with electric retractable landing gear

Following the great success and positive feedback on the large FC1, the collaboration with Ralph and Enrico from Elster Jet was continued to produce a smaller, more practical for everyday use, and easily transportable version of the jet. Pilot-RC is proud to present the new FC1 Elster Jet. The goal of this partnership was to create a jet with versatile flight characteristics suitable for both standard aerobatics and 3D aerobatics. The Elster Jet offers tremendous precision and high performance in standard aerobatics. In 3D flight, this jet is extremely agile and feels as light as a feather. Thanks to Elster Jet’s extensive experience, this model features a range of innovative solutions and is sure to impress you.
