  • Zeus 90mm 45

    Haven’t seen many reviews etc on this awesome plane, figured I’d chime in. First I’m running a XiCoy 45 in mine which is a little overkill not in a bad way but some strengthening should be done even for the 30 KingTech etc. Aileron and Elevator servo arm need to be beefed up, I used carbon fiber thin rod bonded around the factor rods. Second a support for the front landing gear not that factory is defective just nice to have extra support in that area. Third which I’ve seen happen first hand is towards the front of the fuse where the canopy goes on there is a seem that should be reinforced, I ended up using 2 pieces of carbon inserted a bit forward has stopped a lot of the flex so it doesn’t split open. Lastly mod wise is get rid of the supplied fuel cut mine failed after 10 flights leaked fuel everywhere and caused a flame out which I saved thank god, but today my flying buddy who has the same amount of flights had his fail sucking air into the system. Otherwise I love this jet flies fast mid slow is agile and is so easy to land she just comes down in a great steady pattern every time. One thing I wish FreeWing would do like many of the new models is to add a plastic surround to the canopy area on the fuselage. I did a small refinish on mine FreeWing we know your proud of her but wow on the stickers everywhere. Hope to see some comments and get some flights in
