Hi guys, Happy New Year to you all. I've had this jet in my wishlist for quite some time now and I'm about to press the buy button on this awesome jet finally. Was considering adding a set of JP Hobby electric brakes and need your input if I should get the 60mm or 65mm set for this one?

Hello all, I finally found time to unbox and assemble my 90mm F22 and I have some questions. first off, with a admiral 5000 bat. I have to push the bat. back half way off the battery tray to even get close to neutral CG. with the gear up and the canopy cover installed it is still slightly nose heavy??...I see videos of guys pushing the bat. closer to the blue box and flying that way. I have checked my measurement (150mm from wing/fuse crotch) and accurately marked it. Do you all just fly nose heavy?Or is the plane not that sensitive? What am I missing.
Also, how much if any expo you guys using with this aircraft. I'm new to EDF, any advise would be appreciated. won't be flying till spring anyway. Thanks

*edit* Just reread and saw you said half way off (the back?), that does seem far back. are you sure you measured correctly?
Expo is all preference, high rates can be a little twitchy for some people at speed too. I would start around 20-30% and adjust from there or set how you do for other planes.

Thanks Rich!! I used a 33.7oz Fiji water bottle. I get 5 min flight time with reserves for 2 go arounds available, plus taxi in and out. I'm not using a UAT/air trap, just a filtered felt custom clunk and no air bubbles in the lines at anytime. I've noticed jet is much better compared to diesel when it comes to air bubbles as well.
That's great info but seems like a short flight time for that much fuel.... I am going to use Jet A fuel with my X45 and Gaspar of Xicoy said to me that it really works better for best overall performance. I have a smaller tank in my BAE Hawk project 22.5oz , I wish I could learn some more about the water bottle type fittings and tank setups. I cant find these parts for sale. Not much chatter about these home made tanks in the US. I see lots of them on the EU projects.
All the best

Well Rich I can get longer flight times I just choose not too. When I return I always have a quarter tank left of fuel in her. I'm not flying with a UAT and my special filtered clunk is bulky ) about 30mm in diameter. Building a nice fuel tank isn't to hard, and you can get those hard to find fittings online like I did! See link below my man: (Make sure you select the 3 line kit)
All the best

I am using the RX600SP receiver in my F35 with 35% gains and with a switched on / off mode. I really like how it helps the low speed high nose up landings but really cant tell much in flight from gyro on or off. I believe the F22 and the F35 are stabile without any help but it doesn't hurt :)
Hope this helps you
