Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the 64mm fuselage size and why does it matter for RC aircraft? — The 64mm fuselage diameter is a standard in the RC aircraft hobby that represents an excellent balance between scale fidelity and practical flight performance. This size is large enough to capture impressive detail and have excellent visual presence at the flying field, whilst remaining light and responsive enough to fly smoothly with appropriate power and control systems. It's a size that works well with widely available RC components and electronics, making it an excellent choice for builders of all experience levels.
• Is this fuselage suitable for beginners? — This fuselage is ideal for anyone with intermediate RC aircraft building experience or higher. Builders should be comfortable assembling composite aircraft structures, installing servo systems, and configuring RC electronics. If you're new to RC aircraft, you might consider starting with a smaller, simpler model before progressing to a scale F-16 project like this one. However, if you have experience building RC aircraft from kits or components, you'll find the FMS fuselage straightforward to work with thanks to FMS's reputation for quality and ease of assembly.
• What type of motor and battery should I use with this fuselage? — The specifications for motor size, KV rating, and battery requirements will depend on your desired flight characteristics and the complete weight of your finished aircraft. Because the fuselage is sold as a component, you have complete flexibility to choose from a wide range of brushless motors and LiPo batteries that suit your preferences. We recommend consulting FMS Hobby's building guides and the RC aircraft community for recommendations specific to your exact configuration, as factors like servo size, control systems, and additional components will all affect the power requirements of your aircraft.
• Is this an RTR (Ready to Run) product or a component part? — This is a fuselage-only component part, not a complete Ready to Run aircraft. You will need to source and install all internal components including motors, speed controllers, servos, receivers, and batteries. This component-based approach is perfect for experienced builders who want to customise their aircraft, but it requires knowledge of RC aircraft assembly and electronics configuration.
• Does the Blue Angels livery come pre-applied? — Yes, the distinctive Blue Angels colour scheme is professionally applied to the fuselage, meaning you'll get the authentic livery without needing to paint or apply decals yourself. This saves significant time and ensures you get the iconic appearance that makes this aircraft so visually striking.
• What warranty and support does FMS provide? — FMS Hobby provides a 90-day warranty on electronic accessories from the date of delivery. You're also entitled to long-term official technician support, which is invaluable if you have questions during your build or encounter any issues. This demonstrates FMS's commitment to customer satisfaction and provides peace of mind when investing in quality RC components.
