Fly Eagle F 14 1/8 scale, DO NOT BUY IT !!!!!!!!
I´m stil don´t know why i order a FEJ 1/8 F 14, after several nice speaking with the chinesse people i putted a order on 2013 early November, after several claims the model arrive incomplete in 2014 July (/)(%&/$%%&/())=).
I post this warning to any member do not buy this model, this is nothing matter about honey comb or flutter , only warn about a lack of honesty and lack of knowledge about their own products, examples:
1.- Too many time delayed delivering. without honest answer.
2.- Lack of manual of instructions, even the worse chinese jet factory deliver a poor detail of know how to start and how to start to build. i do not asking of manual like great Planes or top flite, even Carf models, the best, only something understable for a modeller builder , i build the model with my poor builder experience, !!!
3.- They try to make a smaller plane instead the big one 1/7 SCALE, and they (stupid people, i apologize but do not exist another adjetive), use the same servo tray like 1/7 in 1/8, do not fit !!!! terrible, the elevator servo touch the fuselage from inside and is imposible use the servo alum tray!!!
4.- They ADVISE TO ME TO PUT A TWO 22 POUNDS TURBINE, AND LOGIC DO NOT FIT !!!! NO ROOM, MF CHINESE!!!!, MANY HOURS TRYING TO MAKE A DIFFERENT WAY TO ENLARGE THE SPACE FOR BOTH TURBINES.
5.- THE ASK TO ME 6K FOR THE MODEL ALL EXTRA WORK DONE!!!! FALSE,
6.- THEY DELIVER THE MODEL WITH WING SWEEP MACHINE WORKING, FALSE, EVEN THE PLYWOOD WHERE IT IS LOCATED HAS A LACK OF GLUE AND MACHINE WORK WITH A CURVE IN THE BIG THREAD USED FOR SWEEP., ALSO THE END OF ONE TOUR (FORMING DELTA WING) DO NOT WORK AND I BURN THE MOTOR AND THE ESC, FOR A BAD EXTRA WORK BAD DONE !!!!!! ANY BODY HAVE A PILL !!!!!!
7.- WHEN I ASKING AND CLAIM FOR THE ELECTRIC MOTOR WITH REDUCTION, THEY ONLY REPLACE IT IF I PAY TO THEM, CAN YOU BELEIVE IT?, I HAS PAY 200 BUCKS BECAUSE I DO NOT CHOICE.
AT END FRIENDS MODELLERS
BE CAREFUL WITH THESE CHINESE SHOULD BE BROKEN WITH THE AMOUNT OF MODELS DOING BAD

Hi
I see that you are registred since 2003. Didn't you read all the existing threads before placing an order to that company? Talk with eperienced modelers in US?
I for sure, will not buy any model from them and live in a small country where info doesn't flow like in your country.
With my empathy as modeller, I wish you good luck with your efforts to make it airworthy, but please read all existing threads and ask for support, before attempting to fly the plane. Many of these were total losses.
best regards
Nuno

Why buying a FEJ, it is because I have an F16 FEJ 1/8 years ago and has never given me problems, and thought or Skymaster Jet Legend, brands also have some flying jet, are made in China, I thought they are the same, I'm wrong again, I thought what the post said in forums could have done to change a FEJ company as the FEJ owner told me, that also takes years to producing airmodels.
in fact I know the problems of flutter in the F 14 1-7, and also the honey comb from Bae Hawk, but I thought ..... that was my mistake, thought.
Hope that everyone learns from their mistakes FEJ people, as we learn when we drop a jet, hands up who has not ever happened.

Statements like I bought a ********* and when I unpacked it I could see that the bulkheads were loose. [WITH PICS ]I spoke to the manufacturer and they are not prepared to do anything. I would not buy anything else from them. Is fine and what RCU is all about.

I totally agree with you, the 1/8th F-16 can very misleading because it was a great flying model.....I enjoyed mine more so than the SM version., it was lighter too.......then they complicated things with scale gear that leaked, heavy, detailed cockpit, operating canopy.......
I would donate the F-14 to charity, a school, a museum.......and write it off from your federal taxes.

So the thread title here ON IT'S OWN is bashing and is marginal but as it is supported by factual information it is OK.
The 'rude' statement is a judgement call by me. In this case I am happy I let it stand. In fact I think it is fine.

My suggestion, 1. is to give up your complaining to minimize the amount of horse beating you are about to endure here. And 2. turn your pretty model into a static display so you can be reminded of how totally idiotic it was of you to do what you have done in the face of the whole world who advised you against it.
