Viper 70mm EDF BNF Basic (EFL077500)

Viper 70mm EDF BNF Basic (EFL077500)

Viper 70mm EDF Jet Bind‑N‑Fly Basic with AS3X and SAFE Select is a mid‑sized electric jet that delivers fighter‑jet styling with sport‑airplane handling and strong vertical performance. It’s designed for pilots moving up from simpler EDFs, offering fast, responsive flight and an optional stability system to help with takeoffs, landings, and steady flight when desired.

Under the hood lies a high‑performance powertrain: a 12‑blade 70mm fan paired with a 1900Kv brushless inrunner motor and an 85A Avian Smart Lite ESC, designed for 6S LiPos in the 3200–4000mAh range to deliver top speeds over 120 mph and impressive verticals. The model features a Spektrum AR631 receiver with AS3X and optional SAFE Select, eight digital metal‑geared servos for precise control, functional flaps for shorter takeoffs and improved slow‑flight, steerable nose gear, and electric retracts with shock‑absorbing struts and softer tires for smoother landings. The lightweight, composite‑reinforced EPO airframe resists stress cracks, and assembly is glue‑free with a one‑piece wing for quick setup. This BNF Basic version includes the power system and receiver pre‑installed, so binding to a compatible transmitter and adding a battery is all that’s needed to fly.
