    • Made a receiver shelf to mount receiver just over blue box.

      • Great idea. I might need to do something like this. Any issues with canopy fitment?

        • I put mine together last night... Shout out to Motionrc for a fantastic, this is hands down the best jet I've ever assembled. Raises the game to a whole new level!

          And they delivered it 2 weeks ahead of schedule?! Bravo guys

          • Thanks alpha, that was perfect. For me the 6s then, it won’t be “underpowered” and I fly my foamies nice and tight. I have several turbine jets and I have tried flying my foam jets in their big patterns so I know what you mean. Big Air is cool but for me the beauty of the foam Jets is their simplicity, scale appearance, and ease of operation out of smaller fields.

            • No issue with receiver shelf and canopy. If your receiver is taller than mine you can just cut a small amount off the underside rib. Really not a issue as there is plenty of foam under canopy. I added some mixes on switch to allow stock control surface movement along with adding in elevons.

              • I’ll have to put something in my signature block but I also own the 70mm Me-262, 90mm F-104, and 80mm Avanti (just for fun). So I’m a big fan of foam jets for another reason, I can have a bunch of them. LOL

                          • Looks great but if it doesn’t transform mid flight your only half as good as it looks.

                                  Looks Good, even if it were Matte/Flatt , wonder how much weight you added after all the Polyurethane.

                                    Utah boys freezing but having a blast getting the F-22s dialed in. We had 3 at the field and 2 on a formation flight just after maidening them.

                                    Sweet flying jet. All stock nosewheels were swapped.
