Overview
The FMS 90MM Super Scorpion Vertical Stabilizer in striking red (model FMSRA103R) is a premium replacement component designed for the FMS EDF Jet 90mm Super Scorpion V2 aircraft. This vertical stabilizer is an essential structural and aerodynamic element that ensures stable flight characteristics and precise directional control during high-speed jet operations. Whether you're an experienced RC jet pilot looking to repair a damaged stabilizer or building a complete aircraft from components, this genuine FMS part delivers the quality and performance you need from an authorised RC retailer.
The vertical stabilizer is manufactured from lightweight yet durable EPO foam composite material, the same premium construction used throughout FMS aircraft. This material choice offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, critical durability during flight manoeuvres, and excellent impact resistance during ground handling and emergency landings. The red colour scheme perfectly complements the Super Scorpion's aggressive jet fighter aesthetics and ensures high visibility during flight operations, making it easy to track the aircraft's orientation even in challenging lighting conditions or overcast weather.
FMS has earned recognition as a leader in RC jet design and engineering, consistently delivering aircraft that combine scale authenticity with genuine flight performance. The 90mm Super Scorpion represents their expertise in high-performance EDF jet design, and this vertical stabilizer component maintains the same engineering standards.

Key Features
- Genuine FMS Component — This is an authentic vertical stabilizer manufactured by FMS specifically for the 90mm Super Scorpion V2, ensuring perfect fit, alignment and aerodynamic performance when installed on your aircraft.
- Lightweight EPO Foam Construction — The vertical stabilizer is manufactured from premium EPO foam composite material, which provides an optimal balance of low weight and structural rigidity, essential for maintaining stable flight characteristics during high-speed jet operations.
- Striking Red Colour Finish — The bright red colour scheme enhances visibility during flight and contributes to the aggressive fighter jet aesthetics of the Super Scorpion, making the aircraft easier to track in the sky.
- Precision Engineered Design — The stabilizer is precisely shaped and engineered to provide optimal directional stability and rudder control authority, critical for the responsive handling characteristics the Super Scorpion is renowned for.
- Durable and Impact Resistant — EPO foam construction provides excellent impact resistance, meaning the stabilizer can withstand minor ground handling incidents and landings, making it a practical and long-lasting component.
- Direct OEM Replacement — This component is a direct replacement for damaged or worn vertical stabilisers, requiring no modification or adjustment for proper installation on your 90mm Super Scorpion V2 aircraft.
Technical Performance
The FMS 90MM Super Scorpion Vertical Stabilizer represents precision aeronautical engineering optimised for high-performance EDF jet flight. The vertical stabilizer is a critical aerodynamic component responsible for maintaining directional stability and providing control authority through the rudder servo. Constructed from lightweight EPO foam composite material, the stabilizer minimises weight whilst maintaining structural rigidity necessary for the demanding flight loads encountered during high-speed jet manoeuvres, vertical climbs and aggressive aerobatic flight. The design incorporates optimised surface area and geometry to work in perfect harmony with the Super Scorpion's fuselage, wings and horizontal stabiliser, creating an integrated aerodynamic platform that delivers the responsive, stable flight characteristics pilots expect from FMS jet designs. The red colour finish is applied using durable paint specifically formulated for RC aircraft, providing excellent UV resistance and durability through hundreds of flight hours. The stabiliser is designed to accommodate the 9-gram metal digital servo commonly used in the Super Scorpion platform, delivering precise, rapid rudder control response. Whether you're replacing a stabiliser damaged during a hard landing, recovering from a crash, or building a new aircraft from component parts, this genuine FMS replacement ensures you're installing factory-engineered aerodynamic performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this vertical stabiliser fit my FMS Super Scorpion aircraft? — Yes, this is the genuine factory component designed specifically for the FMS EDF Jet 90mm Super Scorpion V2. It will fit perfectly and require no modification. Always verify your aircraft model before ordering replacement components.
- What material is the vertical stabiliser made from? — The stabiliser is constructed from lightweight EPO foam composite material, the same premium construction used throughout FMS aircraft. This material provides excellent durability, impact resistance and an optimal strength-to-weight ratio for high-performance jet flight.
- Can I repair a damaged stabiliser, or should I replace it? — EPO foam can be repaired using specialist foam-safe epoxy adhesives, but for structural damage affecting control surface alignment or aerodynamic integrity, replacement is recommended. A properly aligned vertical stabiliser is critical for safe, stable flight.
- What servo size does the vertical stabiliser use? — The FMS 90mm Super Scorpion platform uses 9-gram metal digital servos for rudder control. Your replacement stabiliser will accommodate this servo size.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This component is intended for experienced RC jet pilots and those rebuilding or repairing FMS EDF jet aircraft. Installation requires mechanical aptitude and familiarity with RC aircraft assembly and servo linkage.
- What is the colour finish on this stabiliser? — This stabiliser features a bright red colour finish, which provides excellent visibility during flight and contributes to the Super Scorpion's distinctive fighter jet aesthetic.
- How should I install the vertical stabiliser on my aircraft? — Vertical stabiliser installation typically involves epoxying the component to the fuselage rear section, installing the rudder servo and control linkage, and ensuring proper alignment. Refer to your FMS Super Scorpion manual for detailed installation instructions and alignment procedures.
