We all see different colors better than others. I can see blue and white planes better than any other combo. But I understand others may not.

[Gringotuerto]

Wow this is cool! I agree, blue and white is an "interesting" choice for something that goes in the sky with clouds. But a can of Krylon can fix that.

[GMB]

Great color to lose sight of in the sky. Stupid choice. I'll pass. Change color to something more visible or offer the jet plain white and I will choose to color it myself. Then I'll buy it.

Can the flashing wingtip lights be re connected to static ?

Going by the vids, they are static.

I generally go for military aerodynamics but this one has a lot of appeal to me! Plus it looks like it would hold up well to my flying field.

As for the color, you gents just need to fly lower inside the green back drop!

It reminds me of the eflite habu 32 but in foam not fiberglass the 80 mm habu 32 x I have one so looking closely it looks similar also this could be freewing answer back to eflites viper 90 might be able to do a turbine conversion on it lol I love my viper I have turbine , and electric version of the viper I fly it on 8s , pretty close to turbine version on speed but turbine is faster i`m with James the color is not that great the light blue is going to disappear up against the blue sky I guess you can always painted a different color , who knows I might pick one up but definitely on 8s .

[JamesonC]

Zeus 90mm EDF Sport Jet from Freewing

The 90mm Zeus is the latest sport jet offering from Freewing. Featuring a sporty and highly aerodynamic design, the Zeus 90mm is Freewing’s fastest sport jet yet, reaching speeds of 130 miles per hour (210 kmh) in level flight. Additionally, the blue, grey and white livery offers an attractive, bold presence that can be seen easily in the skies. Impressively designed, the wings are glue and screw-free utilizing a quick release wing lock mechanism that makes installing and removing the wings a simple and quick experience.

Each control surface is managed by a 17 gram metal gear servo for quality and confidence. Offered in 6S, 8S and ARF PLUS, the Zeus promises to deliver the most powerful thrust-to-weight ratio of all the Freewing sport jets before it. Take to the skies and experience the incredible thrill and neck-turning speed of the Zeus!

Feel The Need For Speed? The Freewing Zeus 90mm EDF is the fastest sport jet developed by Freewing to date. At 130mph straight-line speed out of the box (6S PNP), the Zeus is sure to quench your thirst for acceleration.

Slow Your Roll The Zeus includes a thrust-reversing ESC (PNP versions) enabling a brake-like effect, effectively reducing your roll out on landings. This is especially useful on shorter, paved runways.

Grass Friendly The Zeus 90mm EDF sport jet comes with CNC-machined struts with a trailing link design that can handle most reasonably-mowed grass fields with ease.

Navigation and Position Lights The Zeus features daylight-bright LED lights on the wing tips, top and bottom of the fuselage, as well as a landing light that is mounted on the nose gear strut.

Vivid Color Scheme The color scheme on the Zeus is bright and vivid, providing great visibility in all types of situations and conditions.
