      I can say from first hand experience that this jet is a blast to fly! The widest flight envelope of any freewing jet I’ve flown. I personally own/owned freewings 90mm F-16, F-4, T-45 and 80mm L-39, Mig 21, A-4, F-14 and F-5. I’m excited to add this F-22 Raptor to my line up and I know it will be one of my personal favorites! I also own the flex innovation flex jet and with a gyro added, this 22 would be a good competitor to the flex jet. Let’s get that preorder started!!!

This Raptor will at the Arizona Jet Rally - Nov 15-17, 2018. Come out and see it up close. Drooling is encouraged! :) Click image for larger version

            Can't wait to add this beauty to my hangar! Hits all the right notes. Looks, detail, size, ginormous flight envelope...What's not to love? Gonna have to spring for the 8S after pre-sale orders are taken.

                Thanks guys! I'm honored to have been selected to assemble and demo Pilot Evelyn's Raptor. :)

                By the way, Evelyn will be flying this jet at the Arizona Jet Rally. Please come by and say, Hi!

                One more thing...Pilot Evelyn and I are off tomorrow, so we have a photo shoot planned in the morning of "you know who" holding her stunning Raptor. Stay tuned! ;)

                  A really great effort from Motion and Freewing.

                  Looks like a couple of smallish NACA style ducts on the rear underbelly....I presume these are cheater vents? If so would covering these with a grill to prevent wet cut grass ingestation cause any power loss issues?

                    What a trip. I was just popping my bank account for the f14 then i see that video. Stopped that order. I will be up early to pre order the 8s version. With that speed envelope, its what ive wanted forever. Everything else seems slow. Any price ideas on 8s and how long for the pre order hold before deliveries start going out.

                      It's 12:01 in Motion RC land, so it's already tomorrow. Who's going to be first to pre-order??

                                Ive changed my mind. Probably wait and see. Honestly on closer look it looks just like the 64mm raptor. The finish and paint look the same. For real freewing. I got to ask. So many of us love a nice basic plane like this with lights. Its always something. Honestly i think sales will not be great on this without lights. Just put the lights on. If this model had lights like the f14 it would be a out of the park homerun. Price range puts it in the same class as the phantom and f14 which imho you get more bang for your buck. Lights............lights.......... Please put them on

                                    We really appreciate you flying the F-22 for James' videos! Your footage looked so smooth. I'm glad you liked the F-22's flight characteristics so much, and I think many will echo your sentiments once they get a chance to fly theirs. It's going to be a fun December stalking the UPS truck.

                                    Great pictures, Tony, your bird looks right at home with those hills in the background just a few miles from Edwards AFB. Evelyn and the guys at Arizona Jets are going to have lots of fun with this one.

                                      Thanks Alpha! This year marks the 20th Anniversary of the Raptor's first flight at Edwards AFB, and I was fortunate to witness that flight and many more over the years. http://www.aerotechnews.com/blog/201...t-in-the-f-22/
