The BVM L-39 was first
shown at Top Gun 2016 and placed 4th in the very
competitive Pro-Jet Class. A few more refinements
that are included in the production models were
demonstrated at "First In Flight". This straight
wing jet has excellent slow flight and landing
characteristics.
Greg Arnette accomplished
the maiden flights on his BVM L-39 on 6 August 2016.
The conditions at his ranch were perfect, so it was a
matter of just a few flights to get the control travels
and gyro adjustments dialed in. The BVM manual describes
all of the settings and an S.D. Card is available for a
Spektrum 18X radio. Of course, every pilot has his
preference for expo numbers.

Subject: Re: L-39 and Renegade Pictures
The L-39 has
become a really great scale airframe to fly and always
receives many complements on the ground or in the air.
The airframe has been detailed with complete placards
found on the actual full scale aircraft. It’s powered by
Cheetah 160SE, guided by a Spektrum iX-20SE with a
Spektrum AR20310T & CortexPro.
The Renegade
is an incredibly stable airframe that can handle
anything from F3S precision aerobatics to aggressive
freestyle maneuvers. It’s powered by a Jetsmunt 250XBL,
guided by a Spektrum iX-20SE with a Spektrum AR20400T &
CortexPro.
Thanks,
Adam Falk
Brian Blois from Colorado was able
to get out and maiden his L-39. This is a great looking scheme
and shows very well. Brian's aircraft is powered with a KingTech
K-160 and guided by an IX20 and a Cortex Pro.
Len Todd is getting some
assistance from Ali Machinchy setting up the electronics in the
BVM L-39.
On-The-Field Support is an
important part of BVM and Horizon Hobby event attendance.
Juan Vidal from Puerto Rico
is all smiles after his maiden flight with his L-39.
Juan is using a Jeti radio.
