Jets and Wings, I do not have experience with your particular LED Afterburner, though the 2 differing units I have installed mount forward of the fan and replace the OEM cone. Hope this helps.

This bird is used by many different nationalities in many different camo and plain variations so the options are plentiful to break the paint brush/gun out and learn another aspect of modeling.

F-5 Tiger II "VFC-13" Aggressor
I finished my work on my Freewing F-5 Tiger II. My power set-up is the 80mm 9-Blade EDF with the 3530-1900 kv Outrunner (same like the A-10 or Mirage 2000) with the regular 100 A ESC. With this fan the F-5 Tiger II has fantastic
flight characteristics because of less weight and lots of power. It is almost as fast as the MIRAGE 2000.
I´ve painted my F-5 in glossy black with REVELL aqua color. The decals are from Callie Graphics. Thank you Callie!!!
A droptank, landing light and an LED afterburner set from RC Castle complete my EDF jet.
Here are a few pics from my customize process.

Its seems like every time you do an power upgrade on other older models you offer a new scheme with it. I have two F-5s, the camo and the Swiss. The camo is the original when it first came out for preorder 4 or 5 years ago or maybe longer.and I really love flying the F-5s and trust me, I have twisted Alphas ear off on the F-5 in pm's over the years. As for a repaint myself, its in line for one but the line is long. Right now I'm finishing a repaint on the FMS PC-21, upgraded to 5s and a marines paint scheme.1 PhotoMy Hangar inventory FW 90 mm hp F-15, FW 90 mm F-104, FW 90 mm T-45, FW 80 70mm F-5, FW 80 mm Scorpion, 70 mm V2 Z Rebel, F-8 Bearcat and a stable of T-28, white and Orange and yellow

Plus, if they are going to do some paint scheme updates, there are a few that need to come before the F5!!My Hangar inventory FW 90 mm hp F-15, FW 90 mm F-104, FW 90 mm T-45, FW 80 70mm F-5, FW 80 mm Scorpion, 70 mm V2 Z Rebel, F-8 Bearcat and a stable of T-28, white and Orange and yellow

Trust me, the F-5 has been out there for awhile! It was one of there first jets that they came out with in a series of releases back in the day. Iam still flying original preorder when it was first released. I clocked it on radar at 134 mph down wind pass flown by AC Glen or Jason Shulman don't remember exactly who was flying it at the time. I was the brave one running the radar, we clocked my 90mm F-104 at 140 mph on the same day.

Also I got an inrunner version sitting at home waiting for me. Got it for a friend and will be updating on performance with the new inrunner compared to the FMS 2000kv set up... then I will be upgrading to the 2100kv FMS set up after I install the new elevator servos!!Check me out on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/user/gooniac33
