Eurofighter Typhoon
Rc model of the 4++ gen EF-2000 Typhoon
The Eurofighter Typhoon (EF-2000) is a 4th and 5th generation multirole fighter aircraft designed by a consortium of European nations. It was created to serve as a fighter/interceptor for European Union member states, promoting equipment commonality and reducing logistical costs in the event of war.
The model is powered by a 3-cell 1500mAh battery and a 2200kV motor, which gives it a thrust-to-weight ratio close to 1. It has elevon control surfaces and fixed canards that enhance its pitch rate, allowing it to perform a wide range of maneuvers. However, the airframe is not as efficient as its real-life counterpart in retaining energy, so it needs to fly straight and level for extended periods to build up sufficient airspeed for aerobatic maneuvers.
