Not "Giant Scale" but certainly BAD ASS!

Flyzone L-39: the 90+ mph “no-sweat” jet!

A high-speed pass “on the deck” is a thrill that most modelers would enjoy — and the Flyzone L-39 EDF jet offers them a fast, easy way to do just that. Power for that kind of airspeed comes from a proven performance combo: an ElectriFly HyperFlowTM ducted fan unit driven by an AmmoTM brushless inrunner motor. L-39 ducting was optimized to make the most of it, producing cleaner airflow and with it, stronger takeoffs and higher speeds. Another plus: the L-39’s ability to handle 4S LiPo packs. And as the L-39 proves, more voltage and more!!

Includes:

■ Finished AeroCell airframe
■ Redesigned and optimized ducting
■ Factory-installed servos, 35A ESC, ElectriFly

56 mm HyperFlow ducted fan unit and Ammo 24-45-3790 inrunner brushless motor

performance go hand in hand. With 90+ mph (145 km/h) speeds just a fingertip away, flying the L-39 requires the skills and watchfulness of an experienced pilot. However, assembly is so simple that even a beginner could do it.


The airframe is molded from factory-finished AeroCell foam, requiring minimal assembly. The brushless power system, servos and hardware are installed. Once the modeler adds a receiver and a charged 4S pack, the L-39 is primed and ready for its first flight.

It does look pretty sweet. Wish it flew on 4000s. I have a bundle of them not doing anything. I flew them in my Vipet Jet on 8S, when it wad on 8S.

Here is a video of one of these that I built while flying on the Hoffman Magnetics team. We had these on radar in the mid 130's with 4 of us flying in close formation. I still have a couple of these motors and fans laying around. I might have to build another. We did quite a bit of carbon work to stiffen up the surfaces to eliminate flutter. Tons of fun on a 4S 2250.
