Advantage Hobby / V-Pro Mig-15 EDF Jet ARF Radio Controlled Airplane

I pulled the bungee back as far as I could and let the jet go when I heard the motor was up to speed. We used full 7mm up elevator on the launch and then released the elevator as the jet started to climb. The key to a successful bungee launch is to get as low as possible to the ground and pull the cord back just short of all the way. This technique can be seen on the video.

The Mig-15 flew fantastic! It rolled nicely and flew inverted. It does land at a quick pace until you get some experience with it so a long field is needed. We used about 400' on our first landing but could later land in about 300'.

The MIG-15 has no bad habits and can land relatively slow for a high speed jet. My CG was a bit nose heavy as we required about half elevator stick when flying inverted. Although the building was easy, I would recommend this model to the intermediate to advanced level pilot. The MIG-15 flies great but it can really move out! When the sky is grey, the belly of the MIG-15 literally disappears. We had a blast with this model and love how it looks on the ground and in the sky.
