        No. You asked in how many threads? I see at least three!

          A little aerobatic formation practice through loops and barrel rolls in a Zeus vs Avanti S with afterburner at dusk. Feeling lucky there were close calls but no mid-air collision

              Hi,
              How Can i find out the serial number of Freewing Avanti S V2 airplane that i bought from motionrc? i wrote motionrc more than five times, but i could not get an answer. I need to submit this serial number to the cıvıl aviation center to enroll the airplane. Moreover, since the airplane is at the custom now, i can not check on itself. To complete custom clearance process, i need to submit serial number to the civil aviation center in Türkiye, and then i can get the airplane from the custom. Please help me.

                They don't have serial numbers.

                  Hello again!
                  Tomorrow I'm going to attempt to re-maiden my repaired Avanti. Planning on two lunchtime flights with 6S 4000mAh 65C packs (approx. 650g each).
                  For the tail sit test - if the plane passes this test (sits on the tail and slightest push on the nose brings it down) can a newbie safely take off without a gyro, or will it be super sensitive on the elevator?
                  This is the first flight after repairs so I want to take off without gyro and enable it later in the flight when I have some altitude.
                  I'll be using 60/80/100 rates all at 35% expo (NX10).

                    Sounds good. Maybe make it touch nose heavier for the first flight.

                          Avanti. Best all around sport jet made. If you then want a more pattern ship type sport plane Zeus or Vulcan depending on budget. Want more of a 3D fun plane, the new Ares.

                              You gotta picture? Does it have a small pre-drilled hole at each end? This may be for holding the ESC in place.

                                  It's the aft end of the battery tray. Look for the foam pocket with the same size

                                    I've added an 18th nozzle style to the set for the Avanti. This one is styled after the P&W F100 engine's nozzle on the F-15.

                                    Dress up the rear end of your Avanti.

                                    The rear of the FW Avanti S looks unfinished. Here is a set of nozzles for the 80mm Avanti S, in a variety of styles from civilian noise abatement to MiG to F-4 to f-15, F-16, variable geometry to F-35 stealth, and fantasy.Print parameters are not important - choose infill and wall thickness according to weight needs.

                                      Hola!!!! Tengo una consulta sobre el AVANTI de FREEWING en su versión V2,es posible poderlo volar con baterias de 6s 3300 mah 60c? Cocretamente son estas baterías https://www.amazon.es/HRB-3300mAh-Qu...zcF9hdGY&psc=1

                                      Se que que cuanto más mah más tiempo de vuelo obviamente,pero son las que tengo disponibles actualmente para destinar a este avión.La duda también es por tema peso,que no se si serán demasiado ligeras para este avión.


                                      saludos pilotos!!!

                                        You can but you’ll have short flight time and it will be very hard on the batteries. Weight won’t be a problem.
