Hello everyone, I am new to the forum. I have been flying on and off for 30+ years. I pre-ordered the 8S yesterday. I can't wait to play. I received the FlightLine RC Spitfire Mk.IX 1600mm two weeks ago. Two thumbs up to Motion RC.

Welcome Jersey Rob! Glad you enjoy the Spitfire, that's a great bird for sure. Please let us know how it goes with that gorgeous F-22 once you get it!

Thank you, I have my eye on the Freewing F-4D Phantom II Ultra - watching for a sale. :-)

xplaneguy, thanks. That is an easy solution!

Will 6s 4500 45c batteries be ok for this plane? They are roaring tops weighting about 660 grams?

I think 5000mAh is the sweet spot in terms of price, flight time, and weight. The recommended 5000 Admiral pack weighs 732g. There is no reason why the 6s 4500mAh won't work, you'll lose about 30sec of flight time. Just make sure you use it on the 6S F-22, not the 8S version.

A few in-flight photos from this AM ...

Gorgeous! :Cool:

I have been clamoring for a large scale QUALITY F-22 for years. I never bit on the LX because I knew that model was all looks and no substance. A Freewing? I can trust that.

I can feel the anticipation swelling within me...

What do you guys think about the fms 90mm 12bl 1900kv setup in the f22.

Any update on the promo video for the 8s version?

[Twowingtj]

T - 2 weeks! (maybe less):):Cool:. Looking forward to the wide flight envelope and capabilities on this one.

Exactly what I ordered for mine. Also have a taft 90 11 blade. I've heard the Fms is excellent for an outrunner as far power/efficiency. Should not only be more efficient then the stock 9 setup but also have even more thrust:)

The second flight on the 3200's is better and if you discount the first minute of the 1st one taken up with talking before the takeoff, lasted just as long.
