Performance equipment includes a factory-installed brushless motor and ESC, as well as a LiPo battery and charger. A 30mm HyperFlow™ ducted fan unit – and ducting that runs the length of the aircraft – are also included, giving the F-86 the power and thrust for everything from fast, full-throttle passes just off the deck to outstanding sport aerobatics on high.</p> <p>The F-86 Sabre’s appearance is a solid match for its performance realism. The factory-finished fuselage and wings feature molded-in details and lightweight decals to provide authentic markings and insignia. The magnetic battery hatch is hidden under a realistic canopy, complete to pilot figure. The included landing gear can be attached for ROG takeoffs, but can also be removed for easy hand launching.</p> <p>In addition, the F-86 Sabre also offers the unique advantages of new Transmitter-Ready™ (Tx-R) aircraft. Like all Tx-R planes, the F-86 comes with a 2.4GHz Tactic™ SLT™ receiver. It’s the difference that allows pilots to fly the F-86 with their favorite transmitter and the AnyLink™ Radio Adapter.</p> <p>Pilots looking for true jet performance and true-scale appearance can finally have it all in one compact package: the F-86 Sabre from Great Planes.</p> <p><strong>SPECIFICATIONS</strong><br /> Wingspan: 15 in (381 mm)<br /> Wing Area: 53.1 in² (3.4 dm²)<br /> Weight: 2.35 oz (67 g)<br /> Wing Loading: 6.4 oz/ft² (20 g/dm²)<br /> Length: 14.4 in (366 mm)<br /> Requires: AnyLink and compatible 4-channel transmitter</p> <pre> Retail GPMA1771 Great Planes F-86 Sabre Micro EDF Tx-R $179.99</pre> <p>Visit the Great Planes website at <a href="http://www.greatplanes.com/">www.greatplanes.com</a></p> </article> <article> <h1>Tactic™ AnyLink™ – The little black box that lets your fly more planes with the transmitter you prefer: Yours!</h1> <p>Best R/C — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 19:48:43 +0000</p> <p><a href="http://blog.bestrc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/tacj2000bs09l.jpg"></a>Virtually all pilots have a “go-to” transmitter – the one they grab for automatically when it’s time to fly. Now there’s a way to realize the full potential of that transmitter and almost any other, regardless of brand, band or modulation: the AnyLink radio adapter.</p> <p>It’s so innovative that a patent is pending, yet is so easy to use that it can be installed in seconds. Once installed, it enables virtually any transmitter to broadcast a true, 2.4GHz signal and fly a wider variety of aircraft than ever before.</p> <p>One of the biggest pluses of the AnyLink is that it will work with virtually all popular transmitter brands, including Futaba®, Hitec®, JR® and Spektrum®. Once AnyLink is installed, the transmitter will broadcast a 2.4GHz signal and function like any other frequency-hopping, spread spectrum transmitter. Pilots enjoy all the benefits of 2.4GHz technology at little or no cost, while using the transmitter they know and trust most.</p> <p>Compatible receivers are already available and very affordable. AnyLink was designed around the same 2.4GHz protocol used in Tactic™ radio systems. That makes all Tactic SLT™ receivers compatible with AnyLink™ – and it’s why SLT receivers are supplied with the new Tx-R™ (Transmitter-Ready™ ) aircraft now available from Flyzone™ and Great Planes®. As the name implies, Tx-R aircraft need only a transmitter and AnyLink to be complete. All twelve come factory-equipped with an SLT receiver, motor, ESC and servos, plus a LiPo battery and charger. Choices range from WWI bipes and WWII fighters as well as a wide range of classics and the new Great Planes F-86 micro – a 15″ span jet that boasts true EDF performance. Perhaps most amazing of all is that pilots who buy a Tx-R aircraft through April 30, 2012 can get their AnyLink absolutely free!</p> <p>AnyLink will also work with other aircraft that use, or could be retrofitted with, an SLT receiver. For pilots who prefer the feel of their own transmitter, AnyLink represents a golden opportunity to enjoy a greater variety of aircraft choices and the benefits of 2.4GHz technology.</p> <p><strong>SPECIFICATIONS</strong><br /> Dimensions: 2.5 x 1.4 x 0.5 in (64 x 36 x 12 mm)<br /> Weight: 0.85 oz (24 g)</p> <pre> Retail TACJ2000 AnyLink 2.4GHz Radio Adapter $24.99</pre> <p>Visit the Tactic website at <a href="http://www.tacticrc.com/">www.tacticrc.com</a></p> </article> </main></body></html>
