It's not a Sabre, it's a FJ-2 FURY. Similar.

I always liked the F-5, myself. I believe they are still used as "enemy" trainers due to their maneuverability. Here's probably one of the only RC scales I have seen of one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egweEWqKCU8

BTW, I concur with the others... we need to see some video, dnar!

Err in doors took it really well. But I did lie as to the cost by a long way.

I see the rest of your toys have now been pushed into the corner

Ya Thomas the Tank Engine lost its appeal!

Video? I have not flown yet, just 2 runway tests and lost an under carriage. Maybe Saturday will be my first flight. That little voice in my head is saying hang on, learn on something slower first..... I might pick up up a cheaper trainer before I destroy the jet.... The jet approaches 100 km/H.

God help any bug or small bird that gets in my way!

Oh, is this your first RC aircraft??

I would seriously suggest that if it cost enough that you had to lie to the missus, that you might want to consider a cheap trainer first, even a motorised glider. I've seen a lot of really nice scale-like models end up as match wood over the years from people who loved the look and thought of them, but didn't possess the automatic responses to deal with the first 30 secs of flight. Spitfires seem to be popular for this.
