Muy Bonito el Avión ¿Estos son los aviones, Que pide Zelensky a los Gringos, para Ganar a Rusia? QUE SIGA SOÑANDO.... QUE LUEGO VIENE
Putin con los suyos y los rompe TODOS... Rabioso por que no tiene uno de esos F-16.
The plane u are building is actually flown by the Viper demo team based out of Shaw Air Force Base in Shaw,SC

One of my friends has an older bvm.F-16 ( with a Jetcat). He flew it once because it scared him so much thinking of the cost. Once he landed he was shaking so badly he never flew again. 😅
Pure adrenaline!!! I love it !! 😂😂
That's what make it enjoyable!!!!
YES!!!
Like the scheme, the gloss looks good, if you think of a snake they are shiny 👍 you stole my box🤣
😂🤣😂🤣that is funny. He could have bought a nice new car, it went for a model RC jet instead, an ‘expensive’ model jet lol.
Nice video …. One main addition to this jet will be a “Drogue Chute”.. 😃.. Thanks Jonathan 🙏🏻
YES!!!! Thanks David!
David you must have got a deal on the chutes seem all your planes now have a chute. Nice touch with the Jeti programming to deploy it.
Really nice plane! ❤
Thanks a lot!
A sweet jet for $11.4K! 👏🏻⭐️😉
Oh yeah!
Ohhh wow...😮
😎🙌
Good for you man! Hope you have fun!
Thanks!
That is one sweet jet! I used to live right up the street from BVM and I'd always spend some time drooling over the display model's in the showroom whenever I needed to re-up on Hysol or mixing tips.
HAHA. I would absolutely do the same if I was close!
WOW that is cool looking .
Thanks!
Beautiful jet! Have a great time flying her!
Thanks, will do!
Ooo very exciting Venom F16 at The Lighter Side of RC 🚀🚀
Oh yeah!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN people make fun of your apron. Well I say It's stylish, hard wearing, fire resistant and lots of pockets. Some people just don't know style when they see it. Keep wearing it sir, thank you 🙏🏿👍🏿.
Exactly! You understand!
I look forward to seeing that in flight. Very nice aircraft.
Thanks! Looking forward to it as well!
I kind of like a apron and things pretty cool
Thanks!
HELL YEAHHH !!!!! Morning coffee watching this good stuff !!
Morning! Thanks for watching!
The outstanding packaging is for sure an additional reason you should buy from BVM. They are amazing.
Definitely nice to see it arrive safe and sound in a wood crate.
Nice! I felt the same excitement when I first saw a Byron F-16 back in 1997. This plane looks superb!
Thanks! 😎
Just had two of these maidened at our field on the weekend. Israeli camo scheme and Danish demo team… It is simply a magnificent jet with fantastic flight characteristic and really great presence in the air! Can’t wait to see what you do with this one!
Thanks! Some fun things planned!
Flying one of these for the first time must be absolutely terrifying.
SW on the tail stands for Shaw AFB. Very cool rc plane you got there
Thank you!
It just gets better with every new build. This one is spectacular! You are definitely the ultimate RUclips channel for RC.
Wow, thanks! 😊😊😊
The toys keep coming!
Yes! Any it's only just begun!
That thing is gorgeous
😊
Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
AWESOME looks AMAZING
Thanks!
The planes keep getting bigger and more gorgeous! That fuselage and accessories crate is huge and sturdy!❤
HAHA. Wait till the XXL F14 Arrives!😱
@@thelightersideofrc 🤯😵
@@thelightersideofrcWill you be getting inside that one? 😂
@@marksapollo lol
Beautiful plane
Thanks!
Love the apron, in leather, can’t beat it!
HAHA! Thanks!
Beautiful airplane man! I like that the landing gear is in and at least some wiring done.
Thanks! Yea she's going to be a fun one!
Jeez thats going to be a BEAST with a 300 Swe in it. Darn fine looking peice of kit. Yeah keep the boxes can use as a building service. Reminds me of when I received my Super Scale SAAB VIGGEN kit. The box was built like bomb shelter there were 48 screws just in the lid same on bottom and close to 150 everywhere else. Yes it arrived with 2 x boot marks on the top. The ply was 19mm. Don,t forget the Smoke tank. Really looking forward to this one Jon. Carry on.😎
Yea i'm sure we will re purpose the crate for an upcoming build that needs to be shipped! Better to overbuild the crate for sure!
Incredible jet. Very impressive. They fly turbines at my new field cant wait to finally see one in person.
Thanks! Be careful! They are addicting!😂
Sooo nice. !
Thank you!
That seams to be a very nice made kit from BVM, awesome nice looking aircraft, it should be take not to much work to have it into the air, congratulations to the owner and I wish you very much fun to build it as it should take not to long time, greetings from Remi, Belgium
Thanks Remi! Should be a fun one!
insane BIGGG 😀
Perfect size F16!
Dope
😎🙌
Venom livery looks beautiful although as far as I'm concerned if it's an f-16 it's beautiful. This was an unboxing right up my alley!!
Totally agree! Thanks for watching!
cool
Thanks!
Crazy paint scheme. Maybe it will grow on me as it progresses.
Very Unique for sure!
People can laugh at Your Apron but I Myself Love the Apron. Wish I Had one of those Apron Myself.
Any person that actually builds things with their bare hands will understand your apron deal, if they don't have one their about to or wants one! Only someone ignorant and incapable of putting anything together, even asquare cabinet from ikea, would try to insult that apron not to mention the thick leather protects you from damn near anything sharp, hot, and possible stains!
@claycollins8973 you fully understand! Love it!
Never heard of an F16 with a tail hook. The real F16s I've worked around never had tail hooks.
From Google. Most Airforce fighter jets including the F-16, F-15, F-22 and even the newest F-35A have tail hooks for emergency landings or aborted takeoffs. The are additionally used for hold backs for full power engine run ups, at least on the F-16.
I love your apron ❤
Lol. Thanks!
I couldn't even afford those crate boxes lol
LOL!
Love❤
🙌
The servos are Savox 2270's Not sure why you'd want to change them? Also the finger pull under the turbine hatch is to detach the canopy from the airframe.
Simple. Because we use MKS in all of the owners planes. Thanks!
Hi Jon ,
She verry Purdy !!
I like !! , it looks very well done
Another nice one , mate
Cheers
Phil
Thanks Phil!
BCM kits have always been first-class! (Respectfully... "Ventral", not "ventricle") :)
Thanks!☺
We just saw an F16 demo at Miramar this weekend and it had this exact scheme. I had to send a screen shot to my 14 year old aviation expert to verify. You couldn’t tell while it was flying because he never turned off his afterburner and the fuse had a vapor pocket around it when he turned hard.
Super Cool! I bet that was a sight to see!
It was the same jet as the model. The model was based off of it. Same number. 94047. So you actually saw the real live version of this exact plane.
Which is going to be rare because the scheme it was painted was only supposed to be used for the 2020-2021 season and in 2023 it still has it. If you google f-16 94047, you can see what it looked like throughout the years to this last paint scheme. She looks good for being made in 1994.

@PTRRanger951 sweet! Thank you!
If you don’t need the lanyard i collect them. I’m close to 100 different ones. That is a sweet jet
Thanks! Excited for this one!
I will buy it
😎
2:54 "Ventricle" fins lol. I think you mean "ventral" fins.
Yes.
역시 덕중의 덕은 양덕이다
👍
She's a beaut!
😎
For 1/5 scale it should really have LE flaps. For scale accuracy and for slower more stable approaches. Looks very sweet though. Great quality.
Agreed! I think this is one of the differences between a Large Skymaster F16 Vs a Jet Legend. Not sure if LE is even an option with this one.
too bad about the gloss finish, but you can get it wrapped in clear matte protection film or clear matte vinyl if you want that matte look.
Suits the Snake Theme Well. Not my favourite either but it's growing on me.
12k wow
😎
Ventricle is a chamber of the heart. Ventral means underside. The F-16 has ventral fins.
All I know is the Ventrical fins are a pain in the butt during transport.😂🤔😉
Always like your videos, your calm clearly spoken English, is easy to follow even for non native English speakers!👏🏼 just one question, I was surprised when you said you’re not used to BVM models, but… you last video before this was the BVM Bandit?
Thank you! 😃. Yea these are the first BVM projects I have done. So the bandit it the first BVM kit I have built. This is the first BVM/jet legend ARF I have played with.
Hell yeah man! been waiting for an F16 to be on your channel, cant wait to see the final build... by the way packaging quality is ON POINT
Thanks! Will be a fun project!
good lord how many jets are you building
LOTS! It's just begun!
well now I have to see a 1/5th scale a330 🤣
😂😂
you should raise & train a baby squirrel or hamster and have him in the cockpit to fly this plane..!!
HAHA. Could you imagine the comments on that one!
@@thelightersideofrc but seriously..you'd be the top RC channel if you did..imagine that little guy in a fly suit and custom helmet made out of a nut-shell..with a face cam inside the cockpit of course..I'm serious..!!
This is gonna be a quickie assembly build mod before winter? Or no rush? 😊
Next on the list when the Super Bandit goes in for paint.
👌🏻🤩
😎
It's odd that the real F16 cannot stay airborne without fly by wire systems but an RC with the same shape and design just needs two thumbs to keep it aloft.
😂🤔
Cool/ expensive.
Thanks!
I wonder if the pilot of the real Venom has seen this
That would be cool!
What becomes of the shipping containers for aircraft this large?
With the carboard containers I will get rid of them. For the wood Shipping crates I will keep and re purpose on another build that needs to be shipped.
Wow, what’s the cost on an aircraft like this ?
11k
Check the BVM site.
SWEET...holyshit
HAHA. Thanks!
The BVM rep in Australia has thie same jet and scheme. It has a Matt finish which is identical to the actual finish on the full scale. How would you go about taking the glosss finish off and changing it to Matt?
Nice. In a case like this I would light sand. Clean and spray MATTE 2k over.
@@thelightersideofrc thanks for responding mate. Would this add much weight? I have the 1/6 Belgian demo scheme that I want to turn from shiny to Matt
@andrewpoole6854 no problem. On the 1/6th your probably using 3 spray bombs of 2k. I suspect your adding 0.75 to 1 lb when done.
Hello fantastic have you smoke system installed in factory ??? if Yes please detailled views of the tanks fixation and position many thanks !!!!
Yes it looks like there is a pump and tanks installed. We may remove and use the smoke tanks for fuel for the BEAST 300.
Here is the full-size of this aircraft. ruclips.net/video/W2HsTbTY-uw/видео.htmlfeature=shared
😎🙌
Crazy seeing that when I see the real thing everyday. The paint is not as shiny on the real jet.
HAHA. I can imagine! Yea this a special non scale gloss.
That is an amazing RC. What kind of speeds and g loads can hit handle? I think it should be limited to 9g so it appears to fly as the real plane does. Often RC aircraft look fake in flight because they have excessive inputs and reactions compared to a full size plane. 20g turns just give it away and make them look fake inflight.
@@thelightersideofrc
We cover lots of real time builds on our other channel The Lighter Side Of RC AFTER DARK: www.youtube.com/@TheLighterSideOfRCAfterDark/featured
Yep, I knew it would be expensive and that doesn't even include the turbine.
Yes!
Are BVM the best? Or are their better manufactures out there?
That is very subjective. There are things I already like about this 16 but there are things I don’t like compared to other companies. Will discuss during the project
Rough day when you crash that one….
For sure! Any one.
Where to get Helicopters in that scale?
Far less common. Not sure.
"Ventral" fins, not ventricle....kit looks impressive.
Lol. Thanks.
People that don't like aprons have never tried one
YES!!!!
I’m guessing we’re looking at around $20k here?
All done yea in that range.
Tailhook…on a F-16?🤔
Absolutely! Most have them!
Tailhook? F-16? Am I missing something?
Most Airforce fighter jets including the F-16, F-15, F-22 and even the newest F-35A have tail hooks for emergency landings or aborted takeoffs. The are additionally used for hold backs for full power engine run ups, at least on the F-16.
An F16 with a tail hook? Since when? What am I missing?

How much it cost?
Check the BVM Website
Why does f-16 have tail hook it’s not carrier based
The F-16 has a tail hook to hold the jet in place when conducting ground-based high-thrust tests after engine maintenance. The hook is placed into a thick, steel, horseshoe-shaped tiedown, which is in turn bolted to the ground.
Man I wish I was rich! 😂
Haha me too!
Prices
Check out the BVM Website.
Dad and I aren’t big fans of the paint scheme…
But Dad did fly 16’s for the Air Force and I was raised around them so… think I like traditional paint jobs more.
Understandable for sure! The standard are Classic and classy!
Not entirely a fan of the shiny Grey, wish it was a matte Grey like the actual paint
Me too. But the shiny fit's the scheme well I think.
@thelightersideofrc I was ignorant thinking there was only one or two schemes of this kit, then I got on their site, and lol holy moly was I naive! To my delight, they had many different matte iterations
Why servo change? Not good enough? A plane of that scale should come with a quality servo.
Stock BVM Servos are good. Nice brushless servos but we use MKS Servos in all the aircraft for the owner.
I believe the factory servos are MKS just detuned a bit and different case
They used to be (we think) back in the older “gen 1” PnPs. Now a days they are BVM branded servos which are made by Savöx. All HV and Brushless.
Got ya , wasn't aware they were Savox branded servos.
@@klausrohrbach6041
"ventral fin" just sayin...
Yes! Got it!
Ok this isn’t good now I want this f16 in the worst way!!
Haha. Fueling the fire!
Why would there be a tail hook on an F-16? That sounds stupid
Most Airforce fighter jets including the F-16, F-15, F-22 and even the newest F-35A have tail hooks for emergency landings or aborted takeoffs. The are additionally used for hold backs for full power engine run ups, at least on the F-16.
Not impressed with the decal/paint scheme would rather it come in gray color looks cheap looking to me IMOP
Yes the gloss isn't for everyone!
$11,399 for the toy jet..if anybodys wanting to spend a mortgage on a toy and hope like crap it dont crash on maiden flight..yeah getya some rich wanna beez..........not on my salary😅
And this one's not even that expensive compared to others!😉
Ummmm, why does this F-16 have a tail hook? There is no tail hook on a real F-16.
Not true. They do have a tail hook for emergencies.
@@thelightersideofrc Looks like we are both correct. There was not one in the original design, so older versions do not have one. The F-16A, which is much newer, has a hook for emergencies. My bad.
sorry...not big enough...i will not be the "loser" on the airfield
😂
The lighter side of someone's wallet.
LOL. Yes!
Are you seriously calling the ventral fins "ventricle fins"? PLEASE tell me you're doing that to be funny (even though you're failing at it). (Sigh). I guess you think that the plural of "aircraft" is "aircrafts" as well...
Yes. So sorry. I’m not very intelligent 🥸
Hässliches Design..
