Available in 2 power setups(6S or 8S) and 4 colors(Blue, Blue Camo, Gray Camo, and Gray), this Brand New J-10 Version 2.1 (New Rubber Wheels, Improved Servo Locations, New Metal Geared Servos With Metal Casing, New Battery Location For Better Performance) is a formidable multi-role fighter boasting exceptional agility and maneuverability,
characteristics which have been faithfully reproduced in this scale model. As part of the effort in achieving this, the J-10 was designed to run a 105mm
EDF supplied by a 120A custom HobbyWing ESC specific to the J-10. The EDF unit and housing are constructed using a nylon composite material due
to the material’s optimal strength to weight ratio, and the custom HobbyWing ESC is wired to provide a direct line of power to the PCBs controlling
sub systems such as the retracts, navigation lights, and gear doors instead of through the receiver as is done predominantly. The J-10’s control surfaces
are all powered by 12g metal gear digital servos, with the exception of the canards which contribute heavily to the J-10’s maneuverability, they are
instead powered by a larger 40g metal gear digital servo.
In our trials the J-10 pushed pass the 100mph mark fully stock with a 6 cell 5000mah, achieving a max clocked speed of 105mph. For speed demons, there’s more speed yet to be squeezed out from the J-10 with an 8S power setup. She
handles extremely well, though with a voracious appetite, the 5000mah battery lasted us no more than 2 ½ - 3 minutes of flight time, but it was
intense while it lasted, the speed and agility of this jet was simply amazing.
