The H-King Viper 64 is affordable, very stable, and has predictable handling qualities, making it the ideal choice for your first venture into flying EDF jets. It has stunning looks, and the performance on its 6S set-up gives it a fantastic turn of speed and the ability to perform big, jet-style maneuvers, this makes it also the perfect sports jet for the more experienced RC pilot. The H-King Viper 64 is based on a small two-seater homebuilt jet airplane designed by the Viper Aircraft Corporation in the States during the late 1990s.
The durable, lightweight EPO airframe of the H-King Viper 64 combines strength with durability. This plus the powerful 6S set-up allows the Viper 64 to perform nice big loops, rolls, hesitation rolls, Immelmann's, Cobras, Cuban-eights, and much, much more. At the other end of the scale, the low-speed handling is equally impressive, making the Viper as mentioned before the perfect choice for beginners to EDF flying. The included flaps and stylish winglets provide lift right down to very slow speeds allowing for perfectly controlled high alpha landings. The supplied sprung fixed landing gear is also simple, rugged, and uncomplicated, making it ideal for operating from grass-flying strips.
This quick-to-assemble "Plug N Fly" version of the H-King Viper 64 EDF jet comes complete with a 6S compatible 2840-2600KV brushless motor, matched to a 64mm 12-blade fan unit, and a 45A brushless ESC, this gives an abundance of speed, thrust, and a realistic turbine-like sound. Then there are 8 x 9g servos pre-installed at the factory, two on ailerons, two on flaps, two on the separate elevators, one for the rudder, and one for the steerable nose-gear.
The H-King Viper 64 is a great flying, great sounding, fast EDF jet with incredible stability that gives it that locked-in, rock-solid feel, it is the perfect choice for first-timers at EDF flying, or as a sport jet for the more experienced RC pilots. The Viper 64 also looks great as well, both in the air and on the ground, it is guaranteed to turn the heads of all the pilots down at your local flying patch.

Good Job Stuart
After all these Years,,, I see HobbyKing still haven't supplied you with a descent Jacket mate..
64mm 12Blade sounds great....
Get HK to chuck in some servo arm covers for when removing the Landing Gear.
Great flying as always Stu.
Best 64mm jet i have ever flown. 6s power on a light small jet, combined with suspension undercarriage is great for rough grass. Also the flaps are very effective, and no viper tip stall at low speed. Perfect. Andy in uk
Thanks for sharing
Without landing gear it's an absolutely amazing aircraft. Perfect for newcomers to EDF Jets. Hope you guys make a bigger one with Retracts
Can someone please sort the website out please as it’s so slow and laggy still
Very nice jet Stuart! Quick and maneuverable! Great job of flying it man.
Excellent review Stuart!! Love how this jet flys and its durability. Keep them coming HobbyKing 👊🏼
Nice plane . Great job Stuart .
Volar cerca de las vias del tren esta prohibido en españa, aqui solo se pueden volar aviones de papel 😢😢😢😢
1000m wing span 😮
Is it a myth about high voltage lines and loss of signal? I see your field has lines right next door. Those control linkages look pretty vulnerable in belly landings.
Never in the history of the club has there been a single incidence with those power lines. They are much further away than they appear.
Super Stuart! Pretty cold in NL in June xD... I ordered mine after seeing the plane on a video of ProWing and the first video performing a couple of weeks ago 05.17...She performs quite better without the gear! I wonder how long you can belly land without any servo covers and a cover for the front landing gear holder. A friend does only belly land but invests a lot of time preparing the belly of his planes to avoid any damages. I the other day broke an ailerons because the horn was too long for the grass. I suppose it´s a matter of time something brakes. Three servo covers or skids for each landing gear would be good to have. Looking forward!
thanks for the feedback we'll take it onboard.
@@HobbyKingOfficial Great :D
Just maidened mine. Congratulations, very good plane. Great takeoffs and landings on rough grass. No stall characteristics. Flaps are vert effective. Also got your lucky gallon corsair in sale last month, perfect flyer. Well done on both these planes, and no shipping costs from uk warehouse. Andy in uk.
Does this puff up the lipos pulling all that power
Use any lipo of 40c or more and you'll have no issues.
Thumbs up for the lick-tip!!
oh dear belly land that and the servos are going to get wrecked ???
We havn't broken any yet, more durable than you might think.
Sold 👍
