Official Freewing 64mm Lippisch P.15 Thread

Ahhhh Dang It !!!!!!

Each time I try to make an effort to pay off a credit card, MotionRC HAS to come out with a new cute plane that will end up being more fun than watching that " LeeRoy Jenkins " video on Youtube.
Anyways, got mine on order. It looks like it will be too much fun to not bring in to the household. :)

I resisted buying this for 5 1/2 hours, I caved and ordered one. :)

This thing looks like a stupid amount of fun, I can't wait to get it!

Im loving the 64's. The flight performance on this one really swung the deal for me. I have a youth football complex (4 fields together) half mile from my home that these are perfect for. I get more satisfaction from my larger planes but get no satisfaction when my asphalt "runway" is being used. The 64's fit a great niche for me. And with the quality of the finish and detail, they look great on the wall as well. They are so far removed from my first edf its amazing (BH 50mm f86 with an intake that looks like its feeding on plankton).

I'm thinking yellow with black tiger stripes.

How is the performance with the fixed landing gear attached?

As much as I love the larger models, its nice to see smaller jets being released. The J-power line was always a favorite of mine, and I recently revitalized my T-45 in the black centennial scheme. Its nice to know there is a variety of planes available now through motion, and that I can get a nice looking jet that doesn't require me to drive an hour to my club with a large runway.

Definitely thinking of picking this one up, though very curious regarding the landing gear flight characteristics.

Where's the landing gear shown in the manual?

Here you go (it's located in the Upgrades Tab):

To be clear, the pictures shown on our website and about in Post #1-#3, and also all photos by Bajora and Pilot Ryan, are of the FACTORY PAINT JOB. Some may think it was airbrushed by me, but in fact we've trained Freewing's painters to achieve a much more subtle effect than they've done in previous mottling. Every aircraft is mottled by hand, so each one is unique.

Below are pictures of the sample I airbrushed to use as a training reference for Freewing's painters. I think they did a good job, considering the limitations of their equipment (they're not shooting paint as thin as I am through as tiny a needle as I am). Tonight I threw on a yellow/red band near the tail and dressed up the backend a little. It's a fast ripper, so I'll probably paint a red stripe along the underside, or maybe along the entire underside wing, like the standout Dora scheme (see Alfa Models).

Couldn't resist - I'm in! :Cool:

My aging eyes are probably going to need some non-prototypical colors added to visually keep up with this one...:)

The perfect complement to my Durafly Me-163 fleet....trigger pulled! And...a wonderful canvas for a custom "What If" German WWII paint scheme. Airbrush is clean and ready. :)

Nice choice of subjects Alpha. I was pretty sure I didn't need another 64mm EDF. Well, guess I was wrong. I do now:Silly:.

[RCjetdude]

I have one inbound...can't let Ryan have all the fun.

[Hardway]

Order 306950 with an extra battery! Should be fun!

While it's a scale model, I personally think sport colors would be neat on this wing. Bold yellow with black pin stripes, etc. Show us what you can do!
[QUOTE]

I agree with the colour idea Alpha.
I recently flew its propped cousin and wanted some more visual cues.

PS EDF version looks way cooler ;)

[Bajora]

I have flown all three of the new FW 64mm series ... if you like to go fast, this little bugger will have you grinning. :Cool:

[Hardway]

Placing my order! :Cool:

[davecee]

I like flying wings, I like unusual subjects. I've pulled the trigger. I also like fast. I'm sure I can squeeze a 4S in there,( I got a 4S 2200 in a Mig-15) so I also ordered this.
