Official Freewing 90mm Eurofighter Typhoon EDF Jet Thread

4 min flight time for a 90mm on a 5000mah is not bad!

Not bad at all. I'm typically happy with 3.5 minutes on jets like this. I think if one were to use a 6000mah, HV pack like the Coddar, 5 minutes should be achievable on the 6s model. On an 8s model, I think twin 6000mah, HV, 4s batteries could possibly get a little more time.

I found Callie's decals pretty easy to apply even over large surfaces.

I've only ever used Callie's decals on a couple of planes and yes, they are easy to apply. The biggest was on my AL-37. The WestJet logo on the tail was BIG and it went on fairly easily, much easier than the stock tiger decal on the tail of my MiG29, which has a few ridges and lumps and bumps for the decal to go around. I think this Eurofighter will have similar lumps and bumps on the tail.

1.5 sec after lift off "oh baby, it feels good"....

If it was 3.8/ cell and a full 4min maybe. He said 5000 Admiral. If that's the old 5000 50C then I have to say that's pretty good as that battery is not known to be a very good battery. Add that he really didn't do much high speed, high power stuff and I have to wonder about the new fan/ motor and if going to a better quality 5000 or 6000 pack on the stock set up is going to make me happy. It's still early days.

Barely 4 minutes of flight with a 5000mah.... And 14% remaining!!!!
Not terrible, and moreover without armament....
And yet he does not pull that much in it....
Otherwise it flies well, too bad for the flight time....

I wonder when we'll find out if they make it on a container before CNY or not.

Did she make those to fit the V2, or the new V3?

She made them for the new V-3 version coming out let you know how they fit .

[BenOzzy94]

I like that freewing/motion have made the decision to leave the decals off for those that wish to customise their jets but I know for a fact I'll make a pigs ear of applying the decal myself


I guess I could try to make it into a plain jane RAF one like the airfix kit I built the other day (pic is not mine, pic is a much much better version of mine)

The canards will be easy to apply the decals. I'll do them on the tail, too. It may end up looking like crap. I did it on my MiG29 and it was tense at times. I can see some spots where I just couldn't do it perfectly. Overall, I lucked out on that one. Hope to repeat the process on this one.

I ordered mine from rc castle let's see when she arrives
also just got my graphics from callie will be doing this scheme..

[Evan D]

Yes, the one in the back ground in my post # 168. If you blow it up you can see the image is a reverse, most noticeable by the text,

[paulrkytek]

I feel tempted to try the 14-06 'we are back' tiger scheme... hmmmm...

This one?

Do you know the history of it being reversed?

[Airguardian]

No, of course not, haha

[Evan D]

With it reversed?

If you note they are leaving the tiger off the vertical and canards. All other decals will be in place so if you do a GINA you'll need to cover up some of the pre applied ones. Also if you don't do the tiger you';; need to come up with the non tiger graphics for the tail.
