I put the FMS 70mm in runner into mine and it flies awesome! The power of the inrunner is more than the outrunner in general. I believe the increase is 10-15% more than the stock Freewing setup. Plus the FMS 70mm inrunner's max amps is 60a compared to the freewing 70a. You can enjoy longer flight times!
To get it to fit, I left the leading edge lip off and was able to squeeze it in. It also sounds better than the freewing stock setup! Go ahead and drop it in!!! All my 70mm freewing edf's have the FMS 70mm inrunner EDF set ups!!!

My mobius camera stopped recording about 1 min into the flight. I think my mobius camera is dying. Luckily the camera didn't record my awful landing. Enjoy!

nice flight! what size packs are you using and where do you have them mounted in the tray? I have a few 3300's and a couple 4500's
I also can run the 4500mah Roaring top 45c 6s batteries and they too are all the way back. The plane is much more nimble with the lighter 4500's. Mind you, I'm running a slightly heavier EDF: the FMS 70mm in runner. Regardless, the CG is what it is.

thanks for the info! I'm lookin forward to getting mine up. I was suggested Hobbywing skywalkers for ESC's after my Yak-130 pretty much lawn darted itself because of ESC failure. (of course no support from horizon) and i didnt realize HW is factory Freewing lol. I'll be running this with a skywalker 80A and a FMS Inrunner 70mm

What a great plane. This is my third EDF, graduating from my FW Stinger (HP) and my A-4 Skyhawk. After reading this forum I pushed the throttle and placed an order. My first landing was a bit hard and the resulting bounce off the runway onto the grass ended up with a bit of nose gear bend (using the stock struts). Repaired and returned to the field today and flew 4 great flights with 4500 mAh batteries. Perfected my landing technique and found the stock struts worked great on grass landings. Definitely planning to buy a gray bird once there are back in stock for a T-45 paint job thanks the assistance of GregC540i.1 Photo
