These are my review notes for this EDF Sport Jet:
Pros:
- The build seems strong overall
- 6S inrunner power and being the fastest 70mm EDF MRC makes is exciting
- The size is easy to store and transport
- The stock landing gear seems good at first glance, but the suspension is far more bouncy on pavement than I prefer.

Cons:
- No lights
- The elevators were very stiff and required a lot of manual breaking in.
- When I screwed the horizontal stab in, the gap was not completely sealed.

This is how Motion RC describes this RC Jet:

"Introducing Freewing's latest sport jet, the Vulcan 70! Envisioned as a multi-role aircraft for both novice and expert pilots alike, the Vulcan 70 is optimized to deliver the best all-around performance in an economical and everyday flier. Fine tune every maneuver in the book with the Vulcan 70's precise handling, high power 6S inrunner powerplant, grass-friendly landing gear, and a high visibility scheme that stands out on the flight line at your local RC flying field.

Powered by Freewing's popular 70mm 6S inrunner system, the Vulcan 70 Pro version sports near unlimited vertical climbing capability, aggressive acceleration, and top speeds above 100mph/160kph!

Perfectly sized for everyday flying, the Vulcan 70 delivers the flight stability of a larger sized model and even fits the common 6S 4000-5000+mAh LiPo batteries used in larger 80mm-90mm EDF jets. While all flight surfaces are easily removable with screws, the Freewing Vulcan 70 is sized to conveniently fit in the backseat of a sedan without any disassembly.

Drawing upon over a decade of EDF jet design experience including popular sport jets like the Stinger 90 and Avanti S, the Freewing Vulcan 70 Pro's design was optimized to be the "latest and greatest" in EDF sport jet design. Powerful, efficient, lightweight, and economical the Vulcan 70's shape was fine tuned with computer-aided simulations for airflow and drag, resulting in a sport jet that sets a new standard moving forward into the next decade

Freewing's latest sport jet delivers the widest flight envelope in its class. With its tuned wing loading and power system, enjoy flying with the precision of a sport jet, the ease of a trainer, and the speed of a powerhouse. Our team developed the Vulcan 70 to offer both an approachable trainer for first time EDF jet pilots, while still offering veteran Avanti or Stinger 90 pilots an aircraft that brings something new to the hangar - FJ21911P."
