Official 90mm Avanti S EDF Sport Jet Thread

I'm wondering how the Freewing's metal edf with 4068-1750kV will perform.
That's the one I have in the box that has been waiting for a project (so - ARF+ version for me this time).

Yes, That's the one I have and goint to use in Avanti (that's why I'm going to order the ARF+ version)

So I got the 8S setup. Anyone having issues with CG? I’m using two 5200 SMC 4s batteries and this bird is nose heavy using the wood pieces included with CG markings and also using book CG. What is your experience on the 8s setup as far as CG? I have batteries as far back against the blue box as batteries will go. I added 1oz weight to tail and she balances perfect. Would like to hear your experience on 8s setup on this matter. Thanks

How heavy are the batteries? My 8S will be here tomorrow and I'll use a 6+2 that together are 800g. On the 80mm the balance could be so far back that the front wheel could be off the ground and fly well. Doing some math the CG on the 90 is further back on the wing than the 80 correcting for the 12% bigger size.

My only question is there a wire to turn the slime lights on and off. I've programmed my TX assuming there is.

EU stock available now. A few pieces left.


Regarding CG - same story as with 80mm? I'm wondering, how bad the factory CG is anyway.

1 red 6S 6 red 8S, 8 green 6S and 4 green 8S right now. Definitely a smaller shipment to the EU.

No wire for lights like on f-35 110mm to switch on and off. Either plug them in or not.
